Black rappers of recent times need it too...

I've been saying that regarding the dominance of trap/drill...the beats pretty much force you to use double time to sound like you belong. People think flows got better with the fall of the East Coast/rise of the South when really the beats shifted to a syncopated tempo that encourages/enforces a uniform flow from rappers in general.
Forgot which songs I was listening to, pre 2014 for sure, around my cousin and she asked "Why does it sound like they all talking/speaking instead of rapping?" :what: I asked her what she meant and she played me three songs that fit the bolded lol.

Even some of the young open-minded reactors I watch will say they have to adjust to some of the older artists' style.

Did you school her on the versatility offered at 80-110 BPM? :sas1:

Not really. He's talking about the fact that people a certain age are used to the marching band cadence that trap and drill beats almost mandate rappers to use.

Any midtempo 90/00s record sounds like talking to them.

Sounds like Paul Wall. I guess it’s that Texas accent.

I aint gon lie lil brehito flowing HOWEVER these outsiders done had a good 10 years and 1000 mixtapes to study flows and cadences.

Im pretty sure he spent more time in the mirror trying to perfect that flow than a pilots required flight hours.

You're right but he's not far off; one of the reactors who said this was listening to a Jay song :skip:
