What do you think of verses written in English to fit Rap style of music & could it be applied to a Ballad ?

Question

As an example:
"It all began with words of wind fluttering on butterfly's wing"
"And rustling leaves brushed with feathers whispering soft words in the wind"
I would like to know your personal opinion about this unique way of writing verses. Thanks

Answer 1

I think that rap to older piece of music (in general) is a good way of re-introducing classics to the younger generations. These seem to have been almost completely lost with some of the modern rubbish that is being churned out.

If you want to rap it, go for it.

Answer 2

You could probably rap Greensleeves if you were a truely great rapper.
