For my MCs: Can we at least agree that from a technical standpoint Young Thug is incredibly gifted?

[Roxx the King]

Young Thug is actually and extremely talented lyricist. His subject matter and consistency is what needs work. When Thugga is at his best, he's easily one of the best doing it right now. He already has a few classic signals under his belt as such and early stage of his career.

THIS THIS THIS.

I am not cosigning his content or his marketing gimmick. I'm just simply saying NO ONE has more flows or cadences than this man. If he was spitting about growing up in the struggle or some other BS yall would call him generic.

We hate how rappers copy other rappers (see the descendants of wayne, drake, and kanye) but dude is wild unique and original. You could see the wayne influence a few years ago but now he is in his own lane clearly.

I'm 33 and have been listening to hip hp since Ready to Die. I love the fact that Biggie's lyrics can flow over any beat. I genuinely think thugga could body any production. I'm not saying he's a battle rapper or should perform in the backpackers lounge cypher or nothing, but his creativity is unmatched from a cadence and flow standpoint.

I am not a thugga fan that downloads his albums or mixtapes regularly. I listen to his music that comes across my radar and there have been times where I was literally blown away by how nible he can flow and how he'll get ADD with a cadence and just switch it up mid verse.

2 chainz doesn't get enough credit for his rhymes patterns and flows either

 

[HDKG_]

Thug got flows for days

 

[Sammy Steez]

Yatchy has his moments as well

This shyt fuego.
Yatchy bodies that midwest Detroit flow.

 

[Prince Mongo]

Just like how Young Thug and Rich Homie Quan make ass music

and the melodies nikkas here rave about are pretty wack too cause these nikkas can't actually sing.

Young Thug and Rich Homie are infinitely better rappers than the nikkas from Group Home

 

[Zero]

He can rap. Crazy cadences.

He really can. If he switched up his subject matter, he'd be a problem

 

[Cadillac]

guy can rap, I wont deny that. Not a big fan of his music but he got skills

 

[Indiglow Meta (R$G)]

He really can. If he switched up his subject matter, he'd be a problem

Son would be unstoppable if he organized his rhymes more, like he did on Blanguage...
I’m feelin’ like Malcom in the Middle
These bytches, they surround me, they can't miss him
I’m slimey man I’ll wipe a nikka nose
The next time won't be a roll of tissue
A young nikka came a long way
From standin’ on the corner with them pistols
I bought her lot of MissMe jeans but I will never ever miss her
I’m chillin’ at the studio
These bytches wanna fukk on the banana boat
I’m on the outskirt, chasin’ out the green
Smokin’ orange kush feelin’ like a cantaloupe

 

[Zero]

No.

He can't spit multis. He can't ever hop on a classic preemo beat, he can't freestyle, he would never be able to battle the way a real emcee is supposed to be able to at the drop of a hat, he can't perform, he can't enunciate.

No.

False



All that other shyt is whatever

 

[PhonZhi]

2 chainz doesn't get enough credit for his rhymes patterns and flows either

Forget About Drake For A Sec, Lets Dissect the Rhyme Scheme 2Chainz Utilized On "Big Amount"

 

[Roxx the King]

Forget About Drake For A Sec, Lets Dissect the Rhyme Scheme 2Chainz Utilized On "Big Amount"

I stand corrected lol. That big amount cadence was ridiculous

 

[Indiglow Meta (R$G)]

Forget About Drake For A Sec, Lets Dissect the Rhyme Scheme 2Chainz Utilized On "Big Amount"

you missed this (2chainz verse from Freddie Gibbs "neighborhood hoes")

I'm riding around and I'm getting it
You riding around and you didn't
I am riding around with semis,
life's a bytch so I pimp it
Bread long like Pippen,
Gucci on, not dikkies
I will dikk her down so quickly
I draw pistols with no pencils
You know what I'm here for, that's to get dough
Hotter than six nikkas in a Pinto with the vents closed
Period, menstrual, sentimental bimbos
Telling me they love me but been with all my kinfolks
Want a slice like Kimbo, ice like igloo
I like a girl that like doing what her friend do
'Specially if it's me and I'm laying in the middle
And all my verses cold, my microphone should wear a trenchcoat
Trapping at the Citgo, yea the other Citgo
Now I'm the shyt, I remember when I was piss poor
Neighborhood hoes still hanging in the neighborhood
And I don't have to talk too much cause my paper do it

 

[freetroit]

Thug is talented but lack coherence And substance most of the time

But he definitely has a talent for cadences he is a pioneer in that regard

 

[Magnum P.I.M.P.]

Spitting on a Preemo beat is supposed to be some measure on how great rapper is? I bet Cube wouldn't sound that good on a Preemo but he's top 10 DOA

What a strange thing to say.

 

[TripleAgent]

I actually disagree. He has made dopeness with MC Eiht, I think they could lock into a studio and make some heat.

 

[mobbinfms]

I'm 17

he most memorable songs from Cube are not him doing his best NY impression

Cube never did an NY impression though?
What are these records you're speaking of?
