Just like V-Boy and other people said: metaphors are way more complicated than similes. Similes are simple sentences using "like", "than" etc.

Similes are sometimes counted as a metaphor, but they need to be a lil more sophisticated.

As far as it goes to metaphors then, there ain't too many around, cause they aren't that necessary in the rap music. However you can hear a few in Freako's verses.

The only metaphor in rap that i've really heard was I used to love h.e.r. by common, using hip hop as a woman...

RAPresentah said:
sage francis. most underground hip hop kats
I didn't think sage francis was from the bay...

as far as similies go (which most people call metaphors) in the bay I'd have to go with Casual, Ya Boy, Yukmouth, Pep Love, actually all of hiero

DB'z have some coo one liners, so do Droop-E & B-slimm, but they tend to throw in corny shit with it too.
