I always laugh when I hear people mistake Aesop Rock for ASAP Rocky and vice versa

[IronFist]

NOBODY talking about Aesop Rock, so how the fukk people getting them confused?

for real i doubt cats know who he is outside of underground rap fans like myself. thing about aesop rock though is crazy talented but his albums are hit and miss. I think he is one guys that place a great amount of imagery in his songs but when it comes to album concepts and sequencing he lacks in that department.

Wait a minute, so Aesop Rock didn't sell 160 000 records his first week

Aesop Rock is crazy talented, meanwhile asap rocky is the typical bubblegum commercial inorganic rapper...
