TTBI Reads Kyle Adams’ ”Harmonic, Syntactic, and Motivic Parameters of Phrase in Hip-Hop”

Hey, everybody! Bit late on this one ("a bit"), but the good news is you get an episode on rap music today and another one tomorrow! This episode was supposed to come out last Friday, but kept getting delayed. Check here again tomorrow for this week's normally scheduled episode.

In this episode, TTBI reads and discusses Kyle Adams' recent Music Theory Online article on phrases in rap music. He describes various levels phrases can exist or be implied at, and develops discourse on what a phrase even is.
