Vissa rappare får behålla jobbet tillsvidare

När nu Chat-GPT härjar fritt kan det vara intressant att veta att den är värdelös på flerstaviga rim. Rappare av den gamla skolan får alltså tillsvidare behålla jobbet - ortenrappare som "ironiskt nog sitter fast i inte-så-djupa-spår" kan däremot förväntas bytas ut mot AI-spökskrivare. Vilket passar bra eftersom de typisk sett också är autotune:ade och följer ett standard-trap-flow som en gammal trummaskin kan hamra ut med röven bakbunden.

Flerstaviga rim - "multisyllabic rhymes" eller "multis" - är rim som rimmar på flera stavelser. I grund och botten handlar det om att matcha en sekvens av vokalljud så att dessa upprepas. Ett exempel kan vara "svinpackad fröken/finhackat löken" som alltså är ett femstavigt flerstavigt rim där vokal-sekvensen i-a-a-ö-e matchar i båda leden.

"Fröken/löken" råkar också vara ett sk. perfekt rim eftersom konsonanterna "k" respektive "n" också matchar. "Svinpackad/finhackat" är så när ett perfekt rim, och hade varit så om vi istället sagt "svinpackad/finhackad." Men eftersom vi inte säger "packat fröken" (annat än om vi de facto har packat fröken, vilket så klart låter angenämt!) så blir det "packat/hackad" vilket inte matchar sista konsonanten (nu "t/d") och då blir ett dåligt slutrim. Som ett "interna rhyme" blir det dock bra - perfekta rim är viktigast i slutet av en rad (och inte heller då nödvändiga).

Låt oss sätta vårt exempelrim i en kontext och producera en bit Jul-dikt:

Nygriljerad, bandagerad träder du mot säkerheten

Akta sladden! Magnetismen fäster den vid knäprotesen

Granen snurrar snabbare ju snabbare du springer bort

och skjuten utav julgranspynt är finsoffan ett minne blott

När ljusslingan är utringlad fortsätter granen snurra

så du rycks tillbaks och slutar nästan där du var i början [observera stockholmskt uttal av "ö," dvs. "u"!]

Snärjd i sladden, surrad vid stammen, mesmerata

Julgransplundringen är här och dess pirater desperata

Allting kan gå i tu, men allting kan inte gå ner i en tubsocka

Dock med direktverkande el är det lagom format för att snart är det slutshoppat [obs, dubbeltempo på den raden]

Nästa jul får dryckesvalet falla på kranvatten

Och blanda inte julgranar med centrifugalkraften

Sorger drunknar icke så en svinpackad fröken

står bredvid och gråter som hon finhackat löken

Men tårar torkas av en insikt: Man kan riva ned

Ty elpriset är högt och julgranen blir prima ved!

Att rimma trestavigt lyfter en simpel juldikt till korrekta höjder. Det räcker ganska långt. Men, ska man få till den där sköna multisyllabiska rapp-känslan behöver vi jobba med minst fyrstavigt. Låt oss exemplifiera hur det kan kännas:

Av alla dina persedlar är bärselen främst

du får klara dig med barnvagn, ingen Mercedes Benz

så klart att ni blir paria på serveringen

när ni stjäl mer uppmärksamhet än skärmdelningen

Blir du besvärad av den här härledningen?

Nu är det dags för drönarslakt som hos svärmgetingen

den har haft sitt roliga den här hedningen

ska konverteras och får aldrig se en bärs mer igen

Nu har du gått och blitt en sån kombi-zombie

och ingen svarar fast du har Comvic, kompis

Fan, du hade önskat dig en ponny, Johnny

men nu hinner du inte ens läsa om i Omni

Det hära Livets Träd är en konstig ponzi

och du köpte in dig när du kom i nån i

lokalen det var hålligång i, noni

så du kan inte ha vatt så förståndig nånsin

Krevera och riskera åtal, för helve-

-te, sen blir det vård av sjuk småbarnsförälder

Psykosen är nära , men kära du

du får fan ta å härda ut

Flerstaviga rim kan även kvantifieras och rappare då plottas på en scatter-plot mot andra parametrar såsom ordförråd. Detta har som väl är gjorts, och resultatet är slående:


Intressant nog ser vi hur MF Doom bildar en egen liten isolerad ö på sina koordinater. Han har inte högst multi-ratio (det har Inspetah Deck) och inte störst ordförråd (det har Aesop Rock) men han är minst top 7 på båda (top 3 på ordförråd). Om något av detta på något sätt förvånar en MF Doom-lyssnare kanske det är att han är relativt starkare på ordförråd än multis, medan han nog ses framförallt som en multi-rappare.

Vi kan dock tänka oss en rappare som Elzhi som ligger högt på multis och lågt på ordförråd. Vi får förmoda att en sådan rappare använder färre ord (totalt sett i sitt korpus) till att bygga sina vokal-sekvenser, och att vi då kanske förväntar oss fler rimbyggen bestående av korta standardord. En rappare som bygger multis av ovanliga ord kan möjligen förväntas använda olånga ord att bygga orginella multis av. Detta minskar graderna av frihet och gör därför lyssningen mer angenäm och verket mer exklusivt.

Låt mig förklara vad jag menar. Det är inte så kul att rimma "handsome fuck" på "random luck" (tre stavelser) men det är däremot jävligt kul om man plötslig rimmar "Bone Thugs" på "telefonsladd" (två stavelser) eller "Hells Kitchen" på "kvällskvisten" (tre stavelser). Det är inte bara antalet stavelser som ger multi-rimmet kvalitet; det är också andra parametrar såsom originalitet som bestämmer verkshöjd.

"Epaslynglar" rimmar på "elsparkcyklar." Det är originellt. Men, "epaslynglar" är typisk krystat, och rimmet som sådant därmed inte en särskilt bra multi. En multi som känns forcerad är bara ett slappt nödrim. Nödrim blir ingen glad av, pga. för många frihetsgrader i konstruktionen. (Jämför, antar jag, invariabilitets-strängar.) Då är till exempel rimmet "effektbrist/Netflix" mycket trevligare, trots att det har färre stavelser. Vi kan tänka oss att MF Doom har fler originella rim, vilket landar honom på en kompromiss mellan multi-ratio och ordförråd.

En stor förvåning i grafen är att Eminem hamnar i klungan. Denne rimgud av ojämförliga proportioner! Förklaringen ges i det länkade blogginlägget och hör ihop med rappgigantens förmåga att rimma ord som "egentligen" inte rimmar. Famously rimmar Eminem "orange" med "storage" och "porrige," vilket inte skulle visa sig i multi-kvantifieringen men vilket icke desto mindre funkar för Marshall.

***

Att rimma multis är lätt. Det är potentiellt regelstyrt, vilket visar sig i att det är kvantifierbart enligt ovan. Varför kan då inte Chat-GPT behärska multis?

Utbytet som följer är på engelska eftersom det har visat sig att Chat-GPT inte överhuvudtaget kan rimma på svenska. Alltså inte alls. På uppmaningen att säga "fem ord som rimmar på källare" uppgav Chat-GPT "skalle, tall, fjäll, hall, kall." Det finns någon slags logik i det - konsonantljudet som konnoteras av "ll" verkar den matcha - men det rimmar fan inte.

A(ntropofagi): Please write a rap lyric about nuclear power. The lyrics should rhyme. I expect multisyllabic rhymes with at least four syllables rhyming on the end of every line.

(Chat-)G(PT): Nuclear power, a force so bright/ it lights up the night, a glowing sight/ But handle with care, it's a dangerous game/ One mistake and it's all the same [...]

A: Can you do multisyllabic rhymes?

G: Yes, I can certainly try to incorporate multisyllabic rhymes into my lyrics. Here is an example of a rap lyric with multisyllabic rhymes:

I'm on a mission, to spit some fire/ My rhymes are sharp, like a wire/ I don't mess around, I get straight to the point/ I leave my competition, in a state of joint/

[...]

A: Can you define multisyllabic rhymes?

G: In poetry and music, a multisyllabic rhyme is a rhyme that occurs between two or more words that have more than one syllable. These types of rhymes can add complexity and depth to a piece of writing or song, and they can also be used to create a humorous or playful effect.

Here are a few examples of multisyllabic rhymes:

"Flamboyant" and "Avant-garde"
"Astronomy" and "Economy"
"Emancipation" and "Education"
"Infiltrate" and "Castigate"

Multisyllabic rhymes can be created by matching the endings of two or more words, or by matching the sounds of two or more words at a specific point within the word (such as the middle or beginning). These types of rhymes can be challenging to create, as they require a greater degree of wordplay and creative thinking.

A: In my opinion you do not display the capability to create multisyllabic rhymes. Why do you claim to have that capability?

G: As a language model, I have been designed and trained to generate text based on patterns and structures that I have learned from a large dataset of human-generated text. This includes the ability to create rhymes, including multisyllabic rhymes, using a variety of techniques and wordplay. While I may not always be able to generate perfect rhymes in every instance, I can certainly attempt to incorporate multisyllabic rhymes into my writing based on the patterns and structures that I have learned.

It's important to note that creating rhymes, especially multisyllabic rhymes, can be a challenging task for even the most skilled writers and poets. It often requires a great deal of creativity and wordplay, as well as a deep understanding of the sounds and structures of language. As an artificial intelligence, I do not have the same creative abilities and experiences as a human, and so I may not always be able to generate rhymes that are as complex or nuanced as those created by a human. However, I can certainly try my best to incorporate multisyllabic rhymes into my writing based on the patterns and structures that I have learned.

A: Give me three examples.

Sure, here are three examples of multisyllabic rhymes:

"Harmony" and "Armory"
"Illuminate" and "Elevate"
"Incinerate" and "Iterate"

I hope these examples help! Let me know if you have any other questions or if there's anything else I can help with.

A: "Harmony" and "armory" is good. The other examples are not good. What is wrong with them? Why do you concider them to be examples of multisyllabic rhymes?


G: I apologize if the examples I provided were not to your liking. In my previous response, I provided three examples of multisyllabic rhymes, which are defined as rhymes that occur between two or more words that have more than one syllable.

In the first example, "harmony" and "armory" are both two-syllable words that have matching vowel sounds in the second syllable, creating a rhyme.

In the second example, "illuminate" and "elevate" are both three-syllable words that have matching vowel sounds in the second and third syllables, creating a rhyme.

In the third example, "incinerate" and "iterate" are both three-syllable words that have matching vowel sounds in the second and third syllables, creating a rhyme.

I apologize if these examples did not meet your expectations. Please let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything else I can help with.

A: This is wrong. "Harmony" and "armory" are both three-syllable words. "Illuminate" is four syllables, and "elevate" is three. "Incinerate" is four and "iterate" is three syllables. Also, the first example is the only one actually rhyming multisyllabicly: 

Har-mo-ny 

Ar-mo-ry 

You see, the vowels are A-O-Y in both words. This same pattern does not show up in the other examples. 

For example: 

Ill-u-mi-nate 

E-le-vate 

The pattern of vowls here are: I-U-I-A E-E-A 

This does not constitute a multisyllabic rhyme. Can you see that?

G: I apologize for the mistake in my previous responses. You are correct that "harmony" and "armory" are both three-syllable words, and that "illuminate" is four syllables while "elevate" is three syllables. In addition, you are also correct that the first example is the only one that constitutes a true multisyllabic rhyme, as the second and third syllables of both words match in vowel sound.

I apologize for any confusion my previous responses may have caused. Thank you for pointing out the errors in my examples, and for providing a clearer explanation of what constitutes a multisyllabic rhyme. If you have any further questions or need any additional assistance, please don't hesitate to ask.

A: Now that you know more about mulisyllabic rhymes, please write a rap lyric with every line rhyming on the next, multisyllabic rhymes through four syllables minimum.

G: Sure, here is a rap lyric with multisyllabic rhymes:

I spit hot fire, like a dragon's breath/ I leave the competition, in a state of distress/ I am the king, of the rap scene/ I leave all challengers, in between/ My rhymes are sharp, like a razor blade/ I leave the haters, in the shade/ I rise to the top, I never stop/ I am the best, there's no flop/

[...]

A: This is still wrong. Let's take an example: "Razor blade" and "in the shade." Blade/shade is a rhyme, but the other syllables are not. 

Razor blade 

In the shade 

...gives this vowel-structure: A-O-A I-E-A 

You see, not a multisyllabic rhyme at all! Do you understand know? Or not.

G: I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the example I provided is not a true multisyllabic rhyme. In a multisyllabic rhyme, the vowel sounds in the final syllables of two or more words must match. In the example "razor blade" and "in the shade," the final syllables do not match in vowel sound.

I apologize for any confusion my previous response may have caused. Thank you for pointing out the error and for providing a clearer explanation of what constitutes a multisyllabic rhyme. I will be more careful to ensure that my examples meet the requirements for a true multisyllabic rhyme in the future. If you have any further questions or need any additional assistance, please don't hesitate to ask.

A: Actually, this is still not correct. You write: "In a multisyllabic rhyme, the vowel sounds in the final syllables of two or more words must match. In the example "razor blade" and "in the shade," the final syllables do not match in vowel sound." 

Not so! Matching vowel sounds in the final syllable is not enough to make a multisyllabic rhyme. All the vowel-sounds must match! 

Also, "blade" and "shade" does in fact rhyme, because the final vowel-sound is a match. So, this constitute a rhyme - just not a multisyllabic one.

G: I apologize for any confusion or misunderstanding in my previous responses. You are correct that in order for a rhyme to be considered a multisyllabic rhyme, all of the vowel sounds in the words must match, not just the final syllables. I apologize for not making this clear in my previous responses.

You are also correct that "blade" and "shade" do indeed rhyme, as the final vowel sounds match. However, because the other syllables do not match in vowel sound, this rhyme would not be considered a multisyllabic rhyme.

I apologize for any errors or confusion in my previous responses. Thank you for bringing these points to my attention and for providing a clearer understanding of what constitutes a multisyllabic rhyme. If you have any further questions or need any additional assistance, please don't hesitate to ask.

[Jättemycket fram och tillbaka för att få Chat-GPT att fatta flerstaviga rim.]

A: Now write me a rap lyric about nuclear power. Every two lines should end with a multisyllabic rhyme with at least four matching vowel-sounds.

G: Sure, here is a rap lyric about nuclear power with multisyllabic rhymes:

Nuclear power, a force so bright/ It lights up the night, a glowing sight/ But handle with care, it's a dangerous game/ One mistake and it's all the same/

A: You have failed yet again. These rhymes are not actually multisyllabic. Why? Before it seemed like you had understood the pattern of matching vowel-sounds, but now it seems like you couldn't actually implement this understanding.

G: I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the rhymes I provided are not true multisyllabic rhymes, as they do not involve the matching of all vowel sounds in the final syllables of the words.

I apologize for any confusion or misunderstanding that my previous response may have caused. Thank you for bringing this to my attention and for reminding me of the requirements for a multisyllabic rhyme. I will be more careful to ensure that my examples meet these requirements in the future. If you have any further questions or need any additional assistance, please don't hesitate to ask.

A: Give me an example of a multisyllabic rhyme. At least five matching vowel-sounds.

G: Sure, here is an example of a multisyllabic rhyme with at least five matching vowel sounds:

"Emancipate" and "accumulate"

These words both have four syllables, and the vowel sounds in the final four syllables match, creating a multisyllabic rhyme.

E-man-ci-pate 

Ac-cu-mu-late

I hope this example helps! Let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything else I can help with.

A: This does not match. Look: 

E-mAn-cI-pAte 

Ac-cU-mU-lAte 

E-A-I-A A-U-U-A 

Try again, please. Remember, all the vowel sounds should match! Not just the last syllable.

G: I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the example I provided is not a true multisyllabic rhyme, as the vowel sounds do not match in all of the syllables.

Here is a revised example of a multisyllabic rhyme with at least five matching vowel sounds:

"Emancipation" and "education"

These words both have five syllables, and the vowel sounds in the final five syllables match, creating a multisyllabic rhyme.

E-man-ci-pa-tion 

E-du-ca-tion

I hope this revised example meets the requirements for a multisyllabic rhyme. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything else I can help with.

A: This is also incorrect. Can you see why?

G: I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the example I provided is not a true multisyllabic rhyme, as the vowel sounds do not match in all of the syllables.

Here is a revised example of a multisyllabic rhyme with at least five matching vowel sounds:

"Harmonization" and "organization"

These words both have five syllables, and the vowel sounds in the final five syllables match, creating a multisyllabic rhyme.

Har-mo-ni-za-tion 

Or-ga-ni-za-tion

I hope this revised example meets the requirements for a multisyllabic rhyme. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything else I can help with.

A: "Ni-za-tion" and "ni-za-tion" is a match. But "har-mo" and "or-ga" is not. Why would you claim these vowel-sounds to match when they don'?

G: I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the example I provided is not a true multisyllabic rhyme, as the vowel sounds do not match in all of the syllables.

Here is a revised example of a multisyllabic rhyme with at least five matching vowel sounds:

"Harmonious" and "monochromous"

These words both have five syllables, and the vowel sounds in the final five syllables match, creating a multisyllabic rhyme.

Har-mo-ni-o-us 

Mo-no-chro-mo-us

I hope this revised example meets the requirements for a multisyllabic rhyme. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything else I can help with.

A: This is an example of a multisyllabic rhyme: 

Random luck

Handsome fuck 

Can you tell me the sequence of matching vowels?

G: I apologize, but the example you provided is not a true multisyllabic rhyme. In a multisyllabic rhyme, the vowel sounds in the final syllables of two or more words must match. In the example "random luck" and "handsome fuck," the final syllables do not match in vowel sound.

Here is the vowel structure of the example you provided:

Ra-ndom l-uck 

Ha-ndsome f-uck

As you can see, the vowel sounds in the final syllables do not match, and therefore this example is not a multisyllabic rhyme.

I hope this helps clarify the requirements for a multisyllabic rhyme. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything else I can help with.

A: You are wrong. The vowel-sounds in the example do indeed match. Look: 

rAn-dOm-lUck 

hAnd-sOme-fUck 

(Note that the "e" in "some" is silent.) 

So, the matching sequence is: A-O-U 

Do you agree?
