Here it is.
I spent a WHOLE SIX MONTHS listening to the "Tru Lyricist", all for the sake of making my point clear.

The artist known as 'DNA Tru Lyricist' has a very low vocabulary, often decides to reupload his own music, and enjoys using the same phrases over and over since he can't come up with more things to say.
If you hear any repeats, it is not my fault at all. He simply reuploads the same garbage over and over.
Although you can make your own argument for why it should or should not count, I believe it does, because he has the confidence to go out of his way to repost them.


Keep in mind that you are allowed to like who you want to. If you like listening to DNA, it is sad, but a somewhat respectable opinion.
I am not a decider of moral authority, so if you want to listen to his music, then go ahead, I'm not your mom.


RULES:
- This video tracks every single time DNA says "DNA", "Tru", "Lyricist", "David" (his IRL name), or if he says any variation of those words (Including but not limited to "truth", "lyrical", "lyricism", "truest", etc).
- Features don't count (because DNA himself is not responsible for what other people say).
- Adlibs or other sources that DNA intentionally adds/influences will be counted.



I forgot to add +1 for "David" during the Micheal Myers rap.
In the first clip, I accidentally didn't add it, and I realized much later that it was there.
By the time I found it, I was already so far into the video to the point where I didn't want to go so far out of my way to make the math fixed.
(I also potentiially forgot to add features that DNA may have done, so there's possibly much more that is missing)

To be fair, I will give DNA credit where it is due.
On the song "Never Lonely", he only said "lyricism" once, and that's it. That makes the lowest self inserts in 2023 down to 1.
Out of a total of 53 videos that DNA has released (+2 features), the lowest he could possibly go is saying a word that is associated with himself once.


This just shows when DNA uses words in his own name (real life and online alias name).
But if we got into all the times he mentions the same movies and characters and phrases (such as tearing out organs, using a pickaxe, the times he has mentioned that he is the best rapper in the entire world, or how he steals the girlfriends of his mostly child audience), this video could've easily surpassed 30 minutes, but I wanted to give a very small glimpse into DNA's entire discography, and show what a delusional form of 'real music' is.



This video SEEMS like I'm being very negative, but I'm being constructive and making an example (If DNA wants to say anything different, he's clearly delusional and/or crazy).
To be nice, here's a list of every song I enjoyed from DNA so far:
Whatever song was playing on The Diss Tape Vol2 at 1:02:00, that song was cool, love the beat, but the intro and hook was trash, and mentioning Nihilist was cringe (minus 1 point for what he said at 1:04:53. We all know that's cap asf) (3-4/10) (6/10 (ignoring the parts I didn't like)) (think this was an old song that was reuploaded though).
I liked the start of his BC4 verse (4-5/10) (2-3/10 for the whole verse) (+ sps cringe).
Didn't Wanna Go Back was actually pretty good, but hated the hook. 5/10 (7-7.5/10 no hook).
I liked his flow at the end of "Knuck if you buck" 5/10 (2-2.5/10 full song. Nokturnal sucked hardcore).
