nah, unnecessary hooks are wack and ruin replayability, listen to 90s rap and they usually didn't have choruses at all, it was mostly sampled material that bridged the gap ex dead presidents
Now that I think about it..on Reasonable Doubt Hov was rarely on the hook..You're right

yea it might be a little tiring but that's his niche. Game is influenced by Snoop, Pac, Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, Nas, Jay, the list goes on and on. that's why it's hard to say what he sounds like for me IMO :yeshrug:

I get it. However there has to be a difference between "influence" & "sounding like x, y, z".

Everyone is influenced by somebody but when you lack an identity of yourself, your own story & etc all your career is literally you just rapping about them in your career span of 10+ year. How can you respect it? Everything is what OTHER artist have done or does & you collecting the checks for mentioning it constantly.

Even alot of his lyrics are literally older lyrics by some OG cat but then a few changes here & there. Its like cheating in a school exam. 2 cats both write the same shyt but since 1 cheated he has to add a couple of tweaks to it to make it not obvious that he/she cheated.

Alot of cats did that coming up. When they first started practicing their skills & being kids/teens they used lyrics from their favorite rappers during freestyles. But when you actually have made it to the game & have had a career for 10+ years & you've been off age for years?! You an agent who dont deserve your slot in the game.
