Question 10: How important do the Moderators at Rap Genius make you feel? Question 11: How up-to-date is the content on our site? Question 12:What changes would most improve RapGenius? Direct Message on the Genius App - "Edit" bu*ton to our posts on the forum - Fix the Youtube link automatic-process problem - Can turn the website in French - Fix the transparency background problem for images (which turn into a white background) - Can see who's on the same page as us (for the moderators) - Move the leaderboard at the top of the website A mobile application Ability for users to edit their own posts. Ability to add tates while I'm on my phone. Abillity to choose who is in your Top Scholars Criteria to maintain editor position harder Ma**ive de-editor of the inactives. Actually banning people for making sh**ty flame threads on other users or having alts. Add more artists to explain their verses Annotations should be reviewed quicker Annotators need to stop acting like they know artists personally, so they're annotation must be absolutely correct. not all lines have 50 different meanings, some may only have 1, and it may be straight forward without some super secret meaning behind it. Too many annotations are very far fetched. Ban people that make dumb threads. Banning mykro Being able to see what rank you are in terms of iq for every artist rather than only seeing your top artists. Better annotations for older, unknown songs Better job at banning certain users. Better marketing. Better Mobile Layout Better policing of trols Better search bar Better search capabilities (ability to search only for albums, songs, lyrics or artists as opposed to all coming together) better search engine Categories for the forums. Chat needs to pop-out Forum needs pages You shouldn't have to scroll to see annotations Create anonymous up/down-voting, allow users to select language preferences (so foreign songs don't appear on the newfeed) Dates on forum posts Delete spam and harsh troll accounts. DONT CHANGE Edit bu*ton for forums, sub forums for OT threads, placing songs/artists categorized by region(ex. North west, south east, etc). Expand the genres of music Explanation for rejections on annotations- not having to ask why we weren't good enough, the moderator having the courtesy to tell us. Forum improvements such as edit and search options. forum search bar Forum search bar, better song search bar (eg one that gives room for error in lyrics), for the editors forum to be more editor friendly (it's just all the mods and the "in-crowd" editors, they may as we'll use the mod forum for a lot of the work. Editors should be encouraged to input more forums Forums cleaned up, basically options to categorize them, ie sorta by most recent, most viewed, controversial, most thumbed up, etc Forums: Search function Pages in the threads Should be possible to comment without scrolling all the way to the bottom. Get Kanye West (and other artists) to blog or make posts on the website. Get rid of racist/s**ist/trolling members. Forums s** and are filled with boring and redundant topics. There should be a minimum limit for IQ for new members to post in the forums. Also, search on RG s**s. It is difficult to comprehend. Give mods more powers. Give editors less powers. Have pages on threads so it isn't necessary to scroll all the way down Having annotations for more southern rappers from late 90's / early 20's I don't think there's much to do. I think the whole annotating system works fine, so I'd like to see a more functional and aesthetically-pleasing forum. I'd like to see some lyrics being changed when there are some mistakes. idk your dope If Algernon came back If it ain't broke, don't fix it If Lil B took it over Improved music streaming. Improved search function. In my opinion there is no need for changes but a rap genius radio would be a great idea.Maybe some visual improvements would be good and require more rap IQ in order to post at the forums. an open discussion for all wouldn't mind too.As far as the explainations the website is excellent By the way album reviews would be great.It could help marketing and suggesting an album means that more people are visiting the page for the lyrics so it means more advertising and money iPhone App iPhone app would be awesome. Just delete the forums. They are a complete mess. long discussed changes on the forums Make a mobile app. Make Alpha-Q-Up a mod, that guy has amazing annotations! Make the forums more organized. They seem very cluttered. Making it easier to update hot songs that were just released. Damn near impossible to get annotations in on hot songs. Might be a stretch, but an app would be dope Mobile App needed Mobile site, post count, amount of likes and dislikes you've recieved MOBILE SITE/APP More guidelines how to move up in the ranks (ie become an editor) Forum search and thread past cla**ification (ie most upvoted, most downvoted, most recent, etc.) Moderators that do take their job seriously(er?). I see quite a lot of inappropriate (read: retarded) threads allowed to thrive. I know the mods see them because most of the time mods are commenting in them. So really... just heavier security on the forum. Maybe even another raise on the IQ limit for posting a thread. more more activity in other subforums More moderator privileges More forum features More new songs by new artists added more p**n More professional staff, mods, and editors who respond more quickly to accept annotations and dont troll the forums/other users More songs More songs More verified artists to add to website's credibility n/a n/a No 5k whitehats in chat/raising chat IQ to 8-10 k, a way to edit your leaderboard thing, less jerome, raise iq on the reg forum to make it better? More Frank Ocean. None. Not accepting bad annotations. Maybe a way to not make white text seem so stark, as sometimes it doesn't need an explanation Not sure Not to say that Rap Genius isn't welcoming, but somehow make a website that IS more welcoming. Also, endorse others to express their thoughts. nothing Nothing really. Overhaul of the search function and the option to control your own "top accomplishments" Personally, if allowable, I'd like a video call option in chat. I'd also like these private forums to take off, and definitely a way to see if a person in a private chat has seen your message, like FB. Pls get a search bu*ton. p**n gifs on the forums. ProducerGenius being as developed as the lyrical part of RapGenius. Also a thread search engine RapGenius has ENDLESS possibilities. It's just a matter of what we, as a community, want to make out of it. Right now, I don't think we communicate as well as we should with people who first use the site. We're at a point where we are moving away from interacting with users via inbox messaging and personal contact... to relying on pages to TEACH users how to use the site. Additionally, we don't have the applications or the human/financial resources to create content other than uploading text from other sites. What I'd like to see more of, is creating a tab on the main page (in the "About Section" perhaps) that allows people to understand how to use the site. There is a LOT of "coding" on the site... and people get discouraged very easily. Granted, RapGenius is a platform that gives you as much as you put into it, but we need to change that vision. We need RapGenius to be a platform where people RELY on the platform as a resource: "What can I find on RapGenius that will convince me to use it as a primary source... while ALSO contributing to it?" (Definitely a rhetorical question, but it's kind of like how Wikipedia brands itself.) Other than that critique, I'd say just to continue being on point! Continue evolving and staying ahead of the game return to website layout circa winter 2012 Rewards and incentive for Transcriptions to promote more original transcriptions on our site Search function in the forums, smartphone app sEARCH OF tHREADS IN FORUMS Set criteria for de editoring editors. Banning of SDVG. Sometimes it won't bring up the box with the plug ins for soundcloud youtube and spotify Sort verified artists page by rap iq, not popularity Start annotating non- English language music Still hoping for a mobile app. You can navigate RG using the internet fairly effectively, but it's not the same as on the computer. Stop posting stuff about your love for Kanye West to get attention, it's very unprofessional. And, talk more about lesser-talked about rappers like Atmosphere and Blue & Exile. Stop trolls Stop de-editoring people for no reason The ability for Mods to IP ban trolls. The forums are a bit messy the front page . sh** is ugly af The only thing that I would like to change personally, as in if you guys would let me do it I would, is relocate all of the R&B songs from Rap Genius on to Rock Genius as Rythm and Blues correlates more to Rock N Roll than Rap music. The search engine is god awful The mobile version experiences some glitches The site runs very slowly to the point that it seems broken on mobile devices Themes, a real forum, Too many to list, LEMON needs to stop taking vacations and get his sh*t together Unban my old account and free my n***a boosie Use on mobile devices, especially for editors Video annotations (told somebody about this already) Cleaning up a lot of the RockGenius junk nobody touches Web layout/design. I feel the yellow text on a black background design makes the site look unprofessional/cheap and hurts the eyes. White hat forumers stop being douchebags. We can all dream Wouldn't change anything Question 13: What do you like most about RapGenius? A community of dedicated hip hop fans.I'm always finding out about new music as well as learning new things about stuff I already enjoy. All of the annotations! You guys are wonderful All Rap Genius <3 Allows you to decipher the codes to rap Annotaions Annotating and checking annotations. Annotating lyrics and reading tates Annotations Annotations and bbreakdows Annotations/Reading and listening at the same time at the moment im mostly part of the forum but the fact that not only i can find lyrics for every song(which helps me more since my native language is greek) and furthermore understand the meaning is impoortant Being able to contribute to annotations Being able to keep up with hip-hop news Being able to understand references and complicated lyrics - being English I find it difficult to pick up certain references as popular culture is very different in the uk Being mod, occasional chat ethers chat Chatting with my friends Concept Convenience of the website and accuracy of the lyrics. Also the fact that people can show how they interpret song lyrics Creating annotations, editor chat. Dedication of users Easy to use interphase Editor chat Forums Vast variety of lyrics pages Editor chat is cool as f** errythang Every feature on RapGenius is important to me. everything Everything forums Forums forums Forums Forums Forums, IQ point system Forums. Giving the inside explanation Helps me understand what the f** I listen to every day. How clean the lyrics are presented How everyone, even new members, have an equal chance to make annotations. How people are in love in music in general, it's beautiful. How the community and fans can gather together on a song page to discuss or debate its meaning. How you are able to indirectly and at times, directly communicate with certain artists. I like the way people can put what certain lines mean. I really enjoy reading interpretations, especially when I do not understand what a line means. I love it's interaction with rap artists. I just wish I hadn't missed that chance to ask Chris Webby a question. In-depth multimedia an*lysis of every individual word. It is a team effort to annotate It is alive. Other lyrics sites are like dead shells. Rap Genius has character and real people operating it. It has opinions and a certain level of democracy even though it is privately owned. It is an insightful lyric website that has some great articles about my favorite artists. It's a source of news about the Hip Hop I like listening to. Its ease to use Its endless possibilities! It's the greatest website concept ever. It's very friendly and useful Just the user base and how we can take something so common and make it into something that's huge. Lil B Lyric annotations Lyrics lyrics to new songs are up quicker than most other websites Lyrics with a meaning instead of just lyrics. Seeing artists' input on songs to explain their own stuff is really cool. Makes songs more personal. If more people knew lyrics like Rap Genius shows them, rap would be respected by more people. ME Mostly everything I want to listen to has someone pointing out the meaning. Not sure... p rad community usually pics Plenty of information about song lyrics p**n spammers P-Stunna obviously, what kinda f**ing question is this Sense of community Let's me explore rap more deeply Other things such as fashion genius are interesting social side of it swag That it's very up-to-date. The amount of information, interactivity The community The community Annotations The community of Hip-Hop fans The community, having responsibilities as an editor. The community, music The community. Its great to be able to talk to people who share a common pa**ion in rap music. Everyone can annotate and feel like they are contributing to the site. the concept The diversity of music fans in the forums The fact that it's service helps define lyrics and plays a pivotal role in hip hop today. The fact that most songs or transcripts get broken down in a way that can be used in the cla**room or broker meetings. The food The Forum The forum The Forum and annotations The forum and annotations The forum and annotations of course The forum, introduction to new music The forums The Forums. The forums. The forums. At the same time, however, that's one of the worst things about it tbh. the general populace The ideas that are spread about. The ideas that people come up with. The in-depth and sometimetimes satyrical meanings of lyrics The IQ incentive to keep making annotations. Even though it does nothing for you, it gives you a sense of accomplishment. The knowledge i've obtained...i've learned more here on RG than I have in school...i'm sure of it. The lot of rap song which are explained The lyrics and how you include the actual audio the lyrics are almost always spot on, and make for some interesting annotations that are entertaining, even if some are very far fetched, The lyrics. The mods are great, and the people here share very similar interests as me. The open discussions on the forums. The quickness in which one can look up the meaning of any annotated bar. The people The people. The premise of linking images, tweets, other media, other lyrics and the web that creates. RAP MAP. IM A RG EDITOR/MAP MAKER FROM TEXAS. GIS SKILLZ HIRE ME. The quantity of songs annotated The vast library of accurate lyrics They are very fast in annotating new songs and have a lot of obscure songs Up To Date Lyrics Updated very fast. Useful service, great features. Wide range of music represented ya got some cla**ic sh**. 98% of that new sh** is just that. You can look up the meaning of a song. You can work on something that interests you and still get recognition for it. Question 14:What would make you more likely to use RapGenius? A better controlled forum (content wise). I'd really like a more accurate search bar, and a delete function in threads for comments you post, or at least an edit bu*ton. Stuff like that, A mobile app. A mobile app. A mobile application. A mobile site. But I use it frequently. A new song is released by a musician I like ability to use on mobile devices Already use almost every day An app with forum/editing capabilities An App would be helpful and more Facebook posts about upcoming albums. An smartphone app Annotate more songs App Being able to see what rank you are in terms of iq for every artist rather than only seeing your top artists. better editors better forum better forums more clean aethestics Better forums, and a more polished site. Better mobile layout or an app Better quality tates Better searching Better way to update you on the forum threads. The current notification control at the top makes it so that if you miss one thing, you're essentially behind Change the color scheme. Seems a bit dark (this coming from a guy who wears a f**load of black). Don't know Expanded topics. forums Get rid of all of the trolls. God mod powers Having enough faith in the site where I know that if I upload content on the site, at least one more "genius" will look at the content and help an*lyze/annotate it. Right now, most of the projects/pages I work on are by myself. So I think it's primarily about creating a large enough community with a narrowed down interest of saying, "This is who I am on the site... this is what I'm going to focus on." Also, there is currently so much new information being uploaded. Everything just seems to be interesting. I feel like I individually have a lot of content that I can post, but I choose not to because I don't have enough information to annotate it. Get some tates up! I already use it a lot lol I already use it at a high rate. I already use it the maximum time I can use it. I don't have the answers i guess wanting to know more lyrics/ understand sh** but generally i can pick sh** up. I think i use it too much actually but f** rehab I use it a ton already. I would recommend and use your site more if you stopped glorifying Kanye West so much. IDK idk, I want to use it less tbh If a "Movie Genius" was added If I got a job there, I mean, I use it a lot. If I had a job there because I use it so much.. Hahaha! If I'm able to add tates through my phone. If Maboo & Co. sent me free Baller Water IF ONLY GOOGLE PUT IT BACK ON FIRST PAGE SEARCH If you guys would stop f**in with google and i could search things easier Increased depth in lyric explanations. iOS App iPhone app IQ for transcribing Forum pages It works well, has a huge community. less threads about kanye Less trolls Less trolls. IP bans please. Lil B Making this site look better, the blackness is pretty weird tbh. Mobile app Mobile version of the forum money more (active) verified artists More annotations of lesser know artists songs. More links to info More moderator privileges More forum features More music explained from my favorite rappers More new, up and coming artists added more Q and A's from verified artists More quality annotations on songs. There's a ton of important work specifically in Rap Genius that just no one has got to yet, myself included. More rock songs More verified explanations and opportunities to interact with the artist. Nicer users and unprofessional No sh**ty annotations that I can't delete but have to edit to improve. Mods want top scholars too! Not much more Not sure Not sure. nothing Nothing I already use it alot. Nothing in particular. Nothing, I am already using it. Nothing, I use it quite often. Nothing, it's the only lyrics page i use. of p**n p**n ProducerGenius becoming more developed return to website layout circa winter 2012 right now im spending much time at the forums.i use it for the main reason but the forums are my thing Search function in the forums See changes. Smarter n***as annotating first Social networking features some douches in the forums s** straight to the point annotations, not 50 different conspiracy theories as to why a stripper should drop it. The annotations The banning of SDVG To further interpret artist's lyrics to see if they have subliminal messages that make me go,"Whoa". When I publish more songs online Whenever I hear new music, I come to RG windows mobile app Question 15: Do you have any other comments, questions, or concerns? Chat is really discouraging to verified artists that log on. If this site is truly 18+, it should be enforced one way or another. forums Forums are really going to sh**. Get Kanye verified. Hello Piozon. How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood? I find the sites constant promotion of and obsession with Eminem strange for an otherwise pretty hip website. I heart Rap Genius a lot<333 I would like it if more genres could be represented with as much attention as rap music is given on the site (improve RockGenius, more heavy metal, prog rock, etc). is it Ralph though? Is there any way to prevent Yeezus chat? Just repeating, we need IP bans, or at the very least signing up should require email verification. Im sick of trolls on the forums. Just... please fix the forums. The forum itself is fine it's just... the users s**. Keep working hard, you guys are doing a good job Lil B Love this site. Keep up the good work! Expecting big things in the future. Maybe give ya boy some coaching on how to be a moderator...I'd like to be one... nahhh naw Need to watch these spammers and these bad editors. new monkey no sir No, keep doing what you're doing! no.i covered everything above Nope. Thanks. overall, i really do love rap genius. I would LOVE an android app however, it would be the best thing in the world! Please put a search function in the forums return to website layout circa winter 2012 Sometimes the people who run the site do stupid sh** or whatever but overall RG is a great place and I consider many users to be internet BFFs and the concept of the website is really awesome. Stay based Strawberry Drops Vanilla's Gravity. swag, chiraq, shout to my n***a jams, thats my n***a The google thing was a sh** move. Tips to become an editor? touch my booty so I know its real <3 Whenever an image has an annotation and I scroll all the way down I always get pushed a bit up, not sure why Whenever I want to know any lyrics to a song, I ALWAYS make sure there's a rapgenius link, otherwise I don't trust em wheres da p**n Would you bang SDVG? Yeezus was aight. But if we have to praise a song, can we not make it Blood On The Leaves? Song was trash, bro. Yes, a comment/concern. People are too violent, too annoying, too easy to hate. We need love, please. Question 16: How disappointed would you be if you could no longer use Rap Genius? Question 17: How visually appealing is our website? Question 18: How easy is it to navigate our website?
