Hit a nerve I see bytch, you, Backcrack and others the type of clowns am talking about. More concerned about what an artist looks like and if HE'S "pretty" to you than their skills. You are a pathetic lowlife.

:mjlol: yet you're the one still rambling.

Save your aimless essays for your aliases. It's not our fault you have low standards

Your standards are pretty much...

1: Dumb basic shyt that can get through to your simple mind.

2: Fake shyt you can relate to.

3: Gimmicks.

4: A male you find sexually attractive. Hence why you said you're an ASAP stan cause you said he's "pretty"

Not gonna lie. Saw this guys silhouette in the beginning & immediately was like :mjlol: & :usure:. But after hearing his story & how much respect he has for the emcee's/producers before him made me a fan. Like RA said, there's not many in his age group that not only wanna learn their hip hop history but to respect it as much as he does as well. I hope this kid blows up

To really blow he needs to unfortunately be under the mentorship of a snake like Diddy..

Kid can spit but he's doing what I feel I've seen a lot of younger teen kids that start rapping do. He's in that phase where he's really trying to rhyme as much as possible and just being heavily influenced by the usual legends. Nothing wrong with it but I feel we've seen this story play out a few times before. Kid really does have his flow and bars down though, and his presence on the mic is really fukking commanding for a kid his age.

I'll be interested to see where he goes after he realizes he won't make a career solely by emulating past glory but rather tapping into it to make something of his own true creation. It's not ability he lacks but authentic original direction IMO.

Also he looks goofy as hell lmaoooo but I think that also plays in his favor when he starts rapping cause you don't expect a kid that looks like that to kick it the way he does.

He's talented but he doesn't sound like he'd make music I'd listen to. I love lyricism over everything but relatable lyricism not just rapping for the sake of rapping. That was great in the 80s but it's 2016 in a month

y'all really love generic rappers, especially of the 'hip hop savior' type. Then you wonder why hip hop is in the state it's in.
you mad the west coast still out doing the east 20 years later haaaaaaaaaaaaa

Time came and went I think he doesn't or rather the ppl around him don't know how to market him. Even if he's on the underground.
