I might be late to this, but I hear dude is 17 and seems like a throwback lyricist from ny. I just peeped his video "Cant live like this". Is NY real rap on the rise again?

Can we stop making thread titles like this :sitdown: :snoop:

He's really good for his age but dude doesn't even have his debut mixtape out yet.

I got nothing but high hopes for him. But you can't be comparing him to the GOAT already.

its too early. he has to drop something first. but yea, he does seem like the next "one" and he reminds me of a young nas. mtv jams even played his video right after nas this weekend.

i have high hopes.

whos the other bul in that video? he nice too.

The kid has a bright future if he can continue to grow as an artist. I like what I've heard from him so far, but too many young NY rappers have failed to make that next step. Taking the wait and see approach before making any statement on him being the next anybody.
