I'm from Philly and I first got into Wale right before Mixtape About Nothing Dropped with 100 Miles and Running. Back tracked to Paint a Picture and Hate It Or Love it. I liked all the go go songs and the camp lo influence. I dug all of his music up until his debut album. These days I don't even know what his appeal is.I initially got into him back in '07 cause of the Gogo tracks (Breakdown, Dig Dug, Ice Cream, 1 thing about a player) he did early on but thats an Area thing, so I doubt anybody not from here would understand.
As far as rapping check out Mixtape About Nothing and More About Nothing
