He's influenced a lot of souncloud rappers.... but his fans go overboard with it.
The "aye" adlibs, that was OJ da Juiceman. The "squaaad" that's all Waka.
The Sosa flow, was started by his man Capo, which he jacked on Bang 2 iirc. In addition to the dudes hairstyle even. "Sosa" isn't even an original name, Gucci was calling himself that, even had a tape named Gucci Sosa.
The Chop x Keef sound wasn't even original.... Wooh da Kid x Southside was doing something similar in 2010/2011. Which is why i stopped taking "Drill" seriously when i went back and checked out this man's discography. I love the music, just can't accept the premise.
They basically took BSM's whole sound and rewrapped that shyt like it was a new genre. Funny thing is NY kids get slack for doing the same, even tho Frenchie BSM actually from New York, and Wooh/Waka originally from there too. Wooh definitely repped Queens in his music.
Wooh even had Fetti Gang, and keef fans act like Glo Gang is something special and nikkas copying.
I really recommend people check this out and see what this BS is all about.
Listen to the whole first half of this, and you'd think it was a "drill" tape.
Tracks 2, 3, 4
Tracks 5 (second nikka sounds like Durk), 14, 16 ("fetti gang, dirt gang")
It was just 'one'
type of sound they was doing (on some tracks), and Chicago kids basically took that one sub sound and made it their
whole sound. But that don't mean you invented jack shyt, sorry kids. I love the music, just can't accept the premise.
Can't tell you how many bum ass kids I heard say Keef made dreads popular..... like Waka and Lil Jon never existed. Like Rastafarianism isn't a real thing. For those who don't know Rastafaris wear dreads for religious/spiritual reasons alone. Keef didn' start jack when it comes to dreads.
