Them boys (Herb and Bibby) just sound way to clean for street dudes...When street dudes start rapping, they have a different aura with their rhymes, it CANNOT be faked or coached...
For example, DMX, 50Cent and etc...This aura is so strong when they are on the come-up, that's why they get all the hoods across the country buzzing...It only disappears when they get rich and start living comfortably...
I don't hear it this "street vibe" when I listen to Bibby and Herb,,,They sound way to polished to be "street dude trunt rapper," it's even more pronounced because they are broke dudes on the come-up, they should be sounding way more grimmey and savage...
I would be more interested if they took the Kendrick Lamar route, and started being conscious about being "good boys" trapped in a bad environment, and gave us the real about all the pressures that is put on good young Black Americans coming up in such a violent city as Southside Chicago...
That's why 2Pac was so great...He was no hardcore savage, but he was able to portray the struggle of a young black male who was taught better, but was stuck in an impossible environment...
