Been checking for Dave East for minute now,even the old feestyles on Youtube with his brother Bully in the background but to say he is better than Vado is a lil pre mature imo. Vado has a broader view when he writes,East is still very much in the hood with it and needs some guidance on hooks and such.Black Rose was a great mixtape but if I had to put it up against the first Slime Flu with tracks like Council music,Celebration,B&G(with Meek),Rugby Down,Dave has some ways to go man and this comes from a big fan of both spitters but Vado still holds that title until East steps his songwriting skills up and talks about a bit more than the corner and hustling to get a two piece with fried rice and a grape soda.
Dave East = Vado

He also toured Japan earlier this year as well.
they love Harlem rappers in Japan.
Dipset b-teamers back then, Vado been going there like every other year since he popped (took Al-Doe with him this year), the A$AP Mob b-teamers.
now Dave..nice little earner for them.

i rock with vado hard but he definitely got lazy, content, was managed wrong or maybe just didn't care. he was consistently putting out good music but never capitalized on it to go to the next level.
dave east is off to a good start with his hate me now tape, but you gotta give him a couple of years to see how he progresses. everyone said BIG Krit had next and counted J Cole out early after his disappointed first album but we saw how that played out. i believe in dave east tho so i'm supporting him.

Does East have a song where the hook is as strong as this?
Or even as strong as this...

always see a lot of Vado slander on here and maybe the dude didn't reach his full potential but if you were in NY in 2010 you know how big Speaking in Tounges was

good to see some reasonable brehs in this thread, got fukkboys acting like vado was never a factor and never did shows.. nikka was doing several shows when he was signed to cam and even headlined the xxl show after the backlash of being snubbed(the same year they had wiz, j cole, big sean etc)
now lets revisit vado outshining dave east on the same track
