Dude was trash when it came to content, ill when it came to rapping rapping. I feel like he would've boomed if he linked with ysl or even just did a project with thugga

he got the "he's corny" label attached to him and never escaped it, the whole "diss popular act over outdated sounding beat with eminems old flow" shyt got old quick, never evolved creatively like say a tyler the creator who was in a similar lane, not to mention he was always crying about some shyt in his music

he probably stifled his own growth, his labels growth, and his artists growth by beefing with his partner and breaking everything up at their peak

even if he never popped as a bigger star I think he couldve ate off of dizzy wright had the dame beef not happened, dizzy couldve and shouldve been a bigger deal especially with the type of music he made in contrast to hopsin and the connections he had with dudes like logic and joey badass but knowing hopsin he was probably lowkey insecure about bro having his own little wave and potentially surpassing him one day

I was never a huge fan because I viewed him as a dollar store G Mo Skee but he has a few good songs and collabs


Also the Horseshoe Gang absolutely destroyed him and Funk Volume when they were beefing.


Nah that group battle was about even

That blatant jack job of Eminem's flow and cadence got old.

It’s 2023. You can literally go to his Instagram and find out what’s happening. lol.






This dude is an example of everything that made hip hop corny, imo…nigs who only could pop on the internet…but salute to him for taking surf lessons, 😂, I took surf lessons too last summer, only went to like 4 joints tho. Jawn is at Rockaway Beach, I shoulda known it was gonna be ehh. Looks like he’s enjoying life, salute to him, 🫡

Stop making excuses. Tyler made music in the same vein as Hopsin, and he’s still relevant today.

Not in my neck of the woods :hubie:



Also Tyler relevant off of celebrity and knowing how to move. Hop was more of a rappers rapper type of guy anyways.


Cant see him on LV runway shows and hanging out with the Kardashians.

But now that I think about it, Hop prolly should of taken a page or two out off Tyler's book. :ohhh:


He could of easily connected with Pharrell they have alot in common (Skateboarding, Producing, etc.) , he could of helped him navigate the game better,
