You all know the tune "The ? Remains" from Gangstarr. The question mark here is used as a logogram or logoraph which means that it is a sign that stands for one word (Thats how wikipdedia explains it).Dou you know any rap song titles or rap lines which did the same by using a logogram or logograph but instead of a ? question mark used a ! explanation mark ?Thanks !!!Hawkeye

    Unlike ?, there is no word that means !

    So by the above definition, it can't be a 'logogram'

    Um, I believe the term you're looking for is "exclamation point".

    What about that band ! and the Excitables?

    The examples with the ! at the end are not what you're talking about, are they? As mentioned, they aren't logograms ... just punctuation.


    Here's one (though not hip hop):
    ? and the Mysterians
  • HawkeyeHawkeye 896 Posts
    I would prefer a logograph but a punctuation is better than nothing.



    Yo Sticky you know whats it all about !!!! You got the juice, not ??
