Thin Line between Rap and Poetry

For a long time I only wrote verse, never hardly cared about doing the spoken word. However on my AD site everyone kept saying that my verse sounded like rap, so it finally sunk in, I dared to cross the line.

After crossing the line I haven't looked back, I love what I do, even the bad. Most of my poetic rap is on Youtube, www.youtube.com/transamone . Some even expressed their hate for the rap art and attacked me personally but this wasn't anything new to me, I was attacked when I first joined Ad by some haters because of my style of versing, which basically is about life. Haters use to get to me but I finally grew up, to them I say get a life and let the door knob hit you where the good Lord split you. Anyway some of my friends  thought I left Ad because of the criticism but actually I left to face my new challenge, which is being a poetic rapper. opg
