Almost every single new rapper as referenced to Jay-zs lines, fab is Jays man so it's not shocking that he might do it a bit more than someone who isn't Jay-z's man.

And Fab has his own style, he's one of the founders of the punchline rapping style.
He's the laidback, doesn't sweat, "super fly" pause, punchline rapper.

big, mase and jay might've done those styles on a few verses/songs, but Fab made it his main thing.


Honestly I can't take Fab seriously when he spit the lines: "I'm so New York even Wayne hate me...." What in God's fukk smh
That's the cost of having so many one liners, not every single one will be topnotch. No matter who you are, just like if you're a baller who only does threes. You might shoot an air ball once in a while, does that make you wack if you average 25+ ppg? It's the % that's important.

Fab hasn't been shyt to me since There is No Competition #1 . Everything after that I really couldn't fukk with but he's allowed since he dropped that dime Ghetto Fabolous back I think was 2001 or 2002 :ehh: and his album Real Talk :ohlawd:. Even From Nothin to Something was dope too.
