I still think Cant Hold Us is a better song and should be a more popular song :manny:

His albums actually dope and hes got lyrics, various flows that he actually switches up and variation in subject matter.


But hes white so nobody on this board will like him.


I don't like him because the one song I heard
he was breathing all through his verse like college dropout era Kanye.
Not to mention the song I was listening to was straight @ss.

But he can get a pass whereas rappers like Hopsin and Tech N9ne get dissed when technically they don't suffer from that bullsh1t.

People always moan about mediocre rappers getting a pass when he's
the definition of a mediocre rapper getting a pass.

He's pretty big where I'm at (Minnesota), but that could be cuz he's affiliated with Rhymesayers. Basically big with the type of ppl who listen to Rhymesayers.

While I don't really fukk with him, I can't knock this. Bargain bin fly :jawalrus:

Once again, a white rapper isn't afraid to blend self-deprecation with a conscious lack of typical rap tropes like flossing and drugs, and achieves success. Once again, the same ultra self-serious "real" heads dismiss it as corny hipster weirdo music.

Over a decade of grind, this is not an over night celebrity, he's been grinding hard.
