He hasn't dropped any bad material to date. First album sold well for what it's worth (#17 Billboard 200), and was well received. I personally think it's one of the five best albums of 2016.

Extremely underrated rapper. He is versatile behind the mic, and can transition between southern blues inspired crooning to straight bars and everything in between. Beyond that, I think Isaiah has an unique vibe to his music -- it's similar to Big K.R.I.T. and Curren$y but quite atmospheric and relaxing without being boring. Plus the TDE machine behind him ensures top notch production value.

I think Top Dawg can push Isaiah Rashad heavily. He's got the songwriting and singing ability to deliver radio friendly hooks, and the drugged/spacey aesthetic to appeal to a younger audience.

Songs like West Savannah really encapsulate what Isaiah can deliver. He's eating right now, he's come a long way from Chattanooga. Any way you slice it, he's made it.

Maybe I'm just romantic about rappers that don't hail from the coasts. I've spent a lot of time in the heart of the US, traveling in between states. They are authentic cities with quality, honest people. I'm always rooting for the underdogs from the forgotten places.

:wow:

He dope and both of his projects are dope. He just needs to work on growing a following or try to make a hit single or something. Maybe even get on some features.
