As the Beatles moved on, you can tell John started focusing more on the rhythm of his lyrics rather than the singing. A lot of people say that this was due to him feeling self conscious about his voice. I think he developed a kind of singing-rap hybrid that Drake has made popular today. Come Together and I Am the Walrus are good examples of this. Anyone else see any merit to this argument?
ETA: Someone mentioned Give Peace a Chance as a good example too and that he was the inventor of the diss track.
The Ballad of John and Yoko is more "rap" than those songs, IMO.
