Im thinking between Blue Bird microphone and Audio Tehnica at4040 for recording rap and hip hop vocals.

Bluebird:

Transducer Pressure Gradient Condenser
Polar Pattern Cardioid
Frequency Response 20Hz to 20kHz
Dynamic Range (Typical) 130dB
Signal-to-Noise Ratio Not more than 7.5dB
Maximum Input Sound Level (0.5% THD into 2.5k ohms): 12dBV = 3.1V
Power Requirements +48V Phantom Power (+35V min.)
Output Impedance Not less than 1k ohms
Output Connectors 3-pin XLR

Audio Tehnica at4040:

Transducer Condenser
Polar Pattern Cardioid
Frequency Response 20 Hz - 20 kHz
Dynamic Range (Typical) 133 dB, (1 kHz at Maximum SPL)
Signal-to-Noise Ratio 82 dB, (1 kHz at 1 Pa)
Maximum Input Sound Level 145 dB SPL, (1 kHz at 1% T.H.D.)
Power Requirements Phantom, 48v
Output Impedance 100 Ohms
Output Connectors XLR-3M Type

What do you think ?
 
you don't need to start a whole 'nother thread. you already corrected yourself in your other thread.
it's probably not going to be a case of one microphone being "better". If you can try out both microphones, choose the one that you prefer.

Agree.
Go try some out, if you can.
It really is the best way.
