:Krillin:Shannon Sharpe sonned these nikkas so bad they don't want to rap anymore
His beat selection is the best in the crew imo, but he’s definitely my least favorite rapping wise.I mean he's the weakest rapper out of the three of them anyway so

I do think Flygod will end up being considered an indie/underground classic in a few more years. Maybe not on the level of a Madvillainy or a Listening, but definitely highly respected.He’ll never have an album that’s universally considered a classic but he’s not the type of artist that could ever appeal to enough people to do so. I do respect that he knows his lane and stays in it while doing it well.
And he does drop some weaker joints here and there on mixtapes but on his 2nd album you could tell he put his better material on it. It was a nice follow up to Flygod.

I swear I’m an optimist and not a pessimistic cynical person, but at this point? I feel like this is more of Dre trying to get cool points and clout chasing than it is actually trying to help Mach in any way. It strikes me as Dre being like “see y’all? I’m still plugged in!” And Mach please don’t get tied up with Dre or Interscope.
Even if he is. I dunno. I feel like Dre’s been out of touch locked up in his own vault for way too long to have a good finger on the pulse in 2019.
Edit: Mach fans y’all know what joint this is?
That’s how I see it too, not that Mach needs a Dre co-sign at this point....I just find it funny that the boss of Westside Gunn’s “boss” is listening to his biggest rival in his spare time
I'm about to listen to that album again and count the number of weak tracks to calculate classic potential

There's about 9 good songs on this album and that's being nice because few of the beats are classic. He's got the voice and the production style but these melodies just get repetitive and don't do him justice. Flygid will go down as a solid release.....
A decent project.
