Is 21 Savage one of the worst rappers ever?

[Pop123]

Bruhhhh, wtf? Lol

I gave his album a listen today, first rapper outside of maybe 4-5 whose album I’ve listened to in its entirety in like a decade.

Seriously bro, no hate at all (I only listened in the first place because I like a lot of his singles)…how can y’all listen to this stuff man? , my goodness.






This isn’t an off the head freestyle lol, sounds like all his other verses




I’m not “one of them” old heads…I try to fukk with the youth in general…and I'm not even super into the "Lyrical Miracle" ish, sh!t be ass a lot of the time...but nah man, these are really like some of the worst bars ever . Some of the songs jammin tho, don’t get it twisted…it’s just damn, how can your lyrics be so bad? SMH, fans are crazy. All these youngstas on this type time with the bars? Sh!t sounds like an 8th grader who just started writing raps writes this stuff.

This is old he got way better. Listen to savage mode 2

 

[Ziggiy]

He’s extremely basic


But to be honest I think ALL of these new school rappers are pretty terrible except JID. So I just chalk it up to getting old. Everything ain’t gonna be for me.

 

[Iverson_64]

Nah. He has his moments where he spazzes out.

But, overall, he literally raps like he has narcolepsy.

I don't know what Drake was thinking bringing him on tour. 21 Savage is cool for a studio track but listening to him rap live must be like NyQuil for the crowd.

Either the stage production must be on point or he's going to be reduced to an opening act. That's all I can think of.

I'm the same way, I always just exclude myself when it comes to critiquing these kids because I'm too old...but stuff like this is just factual, lol...like he is awful awful. I can't understand how/why someone over like 21 (no pun) that's a rap fan can even get jiggy with this ish...as jammin as some of it is, because the rapping is so bad. It's TOO simple. Son aint even that young I don't think, he's like 30 right?

Anybody got some of this newer stuff where he's rhyming better please link it, salute.

I'm not a rap nerd in the least...I just can't pretend/act like something terrible is fire, lol. I aint doing that to placate/fit in with the kids and what they like, that's corny

That's the go-to for horrible ish now huh? "It's a viiibe". Heard you.

 

[Double Burger With Cheese]

He’s nowhere near the worst rappers of all time. Clearly he’s no Nas, but it’s plenty of rappers worse than him in his current era and before.

 

[Stir Fry]

Listen to 4 or 5 complete albums in the last decade, brehs.

4-5 rap artists…not albums. Nas alone got like 4-5 albums in that time period.. Lupe. Roc. Etc…

 

[Renegade47]

that jimmy crooks shyt he did with drake was amazing and also savage life 2 is high quality raps fron a trap perspective.
