Flow and Entertainment

There a couple of unique aspects that strike me in Rives. The first aspect is at some points less noticeable but is nonetheless omnipresent. This aspect is flow and rhyme. Rives carefully selects each and every word that he utilizes. He uses descriptive words that often abound with rhyme and always transfer easily to the next word he selects. Rives' word usage is powerful and directly plays into the next aspect that intrigues me. This is entertainment. Often, Rives draws his entertainment value from word usage, yet other times I draw interest from his usage of hand gestures and excitement that constantly keeps the listener interested in his points and the knowledge that he is trying to convey.
