On a serious note.
  • Do you think there's a limitation?
  • Does your "connection" have to be within reason?
  • In other words, is it possible to be too far-fetched?
  • If so, then where do you draw the line?
  • Do you take into account accents when you read a verse? (Not just accents that vary across America, but British accents and other International accents too)
  • Does your wordplay in a text verse have to be transferable to an audio verse?
  • Is it ok to use played wordplays if they're a part of a bigger wordplay? (eg: using the likes of in bread/inbred as a part of a more complex play like Sicily view/sis'll leave you, etc)
  • Is it better to be complex, or simplistic? (no inbetweens)
