Is Dave East Really A Dope Mc?

[torcher]

Average rapper. NY been pushin these type of dudes for over a decade now

That track with G Herbo is a perfect example of what I'm talking about....everyone seems to like his verse on that song, but then you have this

And you can easily hear how average he sounds next to Game on some smooth production

Dave east fans disgust me. Like what is it about, having skill or just portraying some street shyt? He don't have bars like that, I don't even think he can see me in spitting, like what's the hype about this guy? Gotta be the nas cosign smfh

if dave east was jay z's artist he would get more atention and praise

 

[PhonZhi]

if dave east had colorful dreads and mumbled instead of actual rap he would get more atention and praise

[Deltron]

he's dope but has room for improvement.

I do believe that Jay would market him better than Nas is....but it's really not about him getting attention, it's more about him not being as dope as people want him to be

 

[DanielAlfredsson]

I think he's one of the nicest new NY dudes in a minute, so yes, very dope. And tremendous beat selection.

Dope as hell but I've noticed that when he raps over those "trap" inspired beats that he dumbs his lyricism down. I agree with that.

But dude is def an elite spitter/lyricist. I mean if you can listen to this:



and not at least even a little, then somebody like Fetty Wap might be more of your liking.

If that was all off the dome than dude is a beast. I'm talking elite .

 

[Zero]

It's the Nas co-sign and that's it

Lol, naw. Not sure bout the rest but the last few bars came from this joint:




Not too many people actually come off the dome anymore

 

[Cadillac]

Guy is alright I fukk with him but I can def see why people don't and claim he average

Guys lyricism is not as amazing as it's hyped up. Which is why @ThreeLetterAgency comment on his lyricism is somewhat true.

His flow and and delivery seem off beat sometimes and he sound like ur average rapper from SoundCloud which can be a turnoff


His strongest attribute imo is his charisma/mic presence
