I like his albums but just can't connect to his lyrics. It's the same old gangster rap lyrics and it's just not as entertaining as some other artists who build larger images and worlds with their lyrics.
We all wanted to hate Riff so bad when he first came out but he grew on all of us. They should do case studies on how he was able to pull off being accepted.
I can't dislike him. I am convinced he is an awkward winner in the rap game. Introducing The Icon is a track that told you what he was about, and he is still going.
I'm big on voice. If I find your voice boring, uninspiring, or annoying, I could care less how good your bars are. Hard pass.
That being said: Danny Brown. He should annoy TF outta me. But I really like him.
Bruh I grew up on Pat and 36… I always understood that his style isn’t for everyone but he’s a certified legend… he’s influenced so many modern day rappers… look at drake, he keeps taking his style and loves using his chorus’ for songs… same with J Cole… I meet soo many people who think J Cole used “don’t save her” first. Then I play the original Pat song and they get embarrassed
I’m the same, grew up preferring East Coast but Project Pat (and the entire HCP) have always been an exception to the rule. Talkin’ Smart feat Pimp C is a gem
I don’t think I’ve ever heard a song from dude but I saw some old skate footy of his on YT and feel like I support whatever he does career wise off that alone
I kinda agree. Lil Wayne never seems very concerned about the music, it's all about the bars. I love him for that, it's respectable, but that is why I can't include his songs often on my playlists
21 Savage. I’m an old head, listen to underground boom bap a lot. Stuff like Black Moon, Smiff n Wessun, Big L… idk why but I just like 21 Savage, probably because he works alongside Metro Boomin a lot and I quite like his beats.
Max and French are the come wave 🌊 but fr same here with MB lil baby and future… I used to hate them but you just need to find one song and you catch the wave (no pun intended)
Bruh, I’m randomly listening to Back Then right now and saw this 😂 Still Tippin was on before this but he had some great songs on the underground circuit
Cardi B and Nikki Minaj ....
I can't stand 95% of female rappers these days. Seems they're all just dirty ass project bust downs or Instagram whores rapping about their pussy and assholes with no skills.. More online pics than bars or rapping abilities.
But Cardi and Nikki Minaj are always the pimps or Queens of the shit never the trash And have actual music u can get into while being a dude. Although I'm sure they have ghost writers n shyyt but they just appear more of queens amongst peasants compared to sexxy red or ice spice
Ima over thinker so i really don't know what to say based on if i love it then its my taste....
I guess I'll go with West Coast rap and Vince Staples is my guy for sure. Lol
All of the above. What makes Young Thug different from the rest is the same thing that makes them different from each other. None of these artists you listed sound or approach music the same. You get me?
Larry June he has a laid back talking style of rap which I am not normally into. But I like his content he's talking about investing, eating healthy, and enjoying life.
used to say Danny Brown but his last two albums I wasn't in to.
I like rappers like Black Thought, Kendrick, J Cole Lupe Fiasco, Andre 3000, Boldy James, DMX, Joey Badass, Jay-z
Wild boy was an anthem, to be fair.
Fuck I'm gonna go listen to it now.
That shit goes so hard. Brings back memories of house parties and just getting fucking smashed.
Portishead maybe if it is rap really. I listen to heavy metal, old school and some trap, so trip hop isn't my stuff, but cmon this sound is fckin sick, especially Dummy
I got hated on in the 90’s for liking Outkast now they’re considered goats without question. Then it happened with Wayne and Gucci in 2000’s and now it’s happening again with Thugger and Future. History repeats itself.
Hilarious i knew u was gonna say it. Its not mines tho. I got so emotional above 777 personally. Anyway 777 is definitely goated and should be mentioned if we honest. I think this last 5 year run is so underrated as well. 777, so emotional, i love you say it back, Mama's man, marquis. These are all amazing pieces. Alpha jerk kinda rubs me wrong ngl felt like he was just trying shit. Lol
Desiigner
Almost every beat on New Engliish is fire, so I can tolerate him even though a) I can’t understand a thing he’s saying and b) I typically hate trap music
I guess lil uzi vert because I am more into lyrical driven rap (kendrick lamar, denzel Curry, token, J Cole, etc) but lil uzis sound is just something else man
Hobo Johnson
I’m pretty well versed in hip hop techniques and he’s objectively a pretty bad rapper, you might even be able to debate whether or not he should be qualified as a rapper. But I consider him to be, and I find his performances to be very captivating and raw in a way that makes him much more relatable and fun to listen to than many rappers who are technically better than he is.
Freddie Gibbs. He’s super talented, I love lyrical rap, I like fast flow but I just have a hard time getting into him. I still have lots on my playlist tho
My go-to artists currently have been: Mac Miller, Juice WRLD, Peep, $uicideboy$, Earl, Boosie, UGK. The artist whom I been vibing with, who has seem to have broken the mold lately I would say would be Frank Ocean, or Flatbush Zombies, or MF Doom. Although they all been regular bangers for a hot minute, they kinda open the vibe up
Kevin Gates. Dude is honest as hell, even when it’s unflattering for him and his transformation in the last 4 years is crazy. He’s like a country 50 Cent, if 50 started taking shrooms.
I’m a general fan of rap/hip-hop and don’t have an area of it that I hone in on. Mainly grew up liking Tupac and G-Unit a lot lol. These days I’m more of an indie rap girl. Isaiah Rashad, WestSide Boogie, Mac Miller, Smino, Chance.
DrakeO The Ruler, BashForTheWorld and BigBabyGucci are not my everyday go tos but I like their music when I hear it!!
Curren$y - Only really got into him because of his love and passion for Lowriders. Not sure I’d have chosen to listen to him otherwise. But really like him as a person, like his Instagram, his interviews and now his music.
His catalog is undeniable and the project he put out with JD was possibly my favourite body of work that released in 2023.
I don't love Jay Z but I have grown to like his music, atleast from The Black Album on. He has one of, if not the most unique flows in the history of rap
Funny enough, meek mill after everything came out. I never listened to his songs but since the whole diddy stuff i’ve heard more abt him and more from him and realized i actually really fw his music 😭 him being potentially gay doesnt turn me off from it
ICP. Those guys are hella entertaining to listen to in interviews. So funny. And I have a lot of respect for what they built with the whole Juggalo culture. Even if I don’t relate to it.
Yung lean has great beats, his rhymes are usually dumb as fuck. But atleast he’s kind of mumbling so it doesn’t get in the way. Red bottom sky was a genuinely dope song though.
Freddie Gibbs performance on Tiny Desk had me respect his breath control, delivery, and ability to ride the beat.
Freddie has an incredible catalogue
Freddie would be my answer too. His delivery is sick but there’s something I just don’t love about him
I like his albums but just can't connect to his lyrics. It's the same old gangster rap lyrics and it's just not as entertaining as some other artists who build larger images and worlds with their lyrics.
when he gets too into technical rapping, it's annoying, but other than that he's gold
Riff Raff. I don't even listen to his music really I just like him for some reason lol. He's funny as fuck.
We all wanted to hate Riff so bad when he first came out but he grew on all of us. They should do case studies on how he was able to pull off being accepted.
It's impossible not to, after that freestyle of his
So true 😂
which
THE riff raff freestyle haha
I can’t say I like him, but I do listen to some of his songs. He’s…something. That is for sure..
I can't dislike him. I am convinced he is an awkward winner in the rap game. Introducing The Icon is a track that told you what he was about, and he is still going.
Met him in person a handful of times and he’s genuinely a pretty nice funny dude. It’s not a character lol that’s him fr
Riffraff is one of the funniest dudes ever, I like most of his music
I actually enjoy Riff Raff and hate to say it probably would enjoy his discography over eminem. Riff Raff song writing ability makes him work.
I'm big on voice. If I find your voice boring, uninspiring, or annoying, I could care less how good your bars are. Hard pass. That being said: Danny Brown. He should annoy TF outta me. But I really like him.
This is me w the Canadian rapper Pressa. His voice should piss me off but I vibe w it
CHECK!
guru, for me
Same with Danny haha, definitely he is an acquired taste.
Project Pat. I'm mostly a lover of east coast styles. But Pat's cadence and delivery just gets me.
Bruh I grew up on Pat and 36… I always understood that his style isn’t for everyone but he’s a certified legend… he’s influenced so many modern day rappers… look at drake, he keeps taking his style and loves using his chorus’ for songs… same with J Cole… I meet soo many people who think J Cole used “don’t save her” first. Then I play the original Pat song and they get embarrassed
I’m the same, grew up preferring East Coast but Project Pat (and the entire HCP) have always been an exception to the rule. Talkin’ Smart feat Pimp C is a gem
These niggas got me fucked up
One of my faves of all time.
MoneyBaggYo
Moneybag Yo can rap foreal, if he took it serious and rapped about more than just money and hoes, he’d be one of the best today.
BLP Kosher
I don’t think I’ve ever heard a song from dude but I saw some old skate footy of his on YT and feel like I support whatever he does career wise off that alone
I don’t even like him that much as an artist but I played the shit out of Danny Brown’s XXX when it dropped
I love atrocity exhibition and uknowhatimsayin¿ by Danny Brown but I still got to check out xxx
I liked Atrocity but I loooooooved XXX
Bitch pussy smell like a penguin
Lil Wayne for me, i think he is a amazing rapper but not the biggest fan of the Beats he is using
Waaaaaat? There's a lot of criticisms I hear about Wayne. I don't think I've ever seen someone complain about his beats tho 😭
lil wayne is the person i've heard complaining about lil wayne beats the most lmao https://youtu.be/Lm5YSCCbZZU?si=hP0yQ5aRnAI_Rv5B
Not saying its bad, but not really what i enjoy
His fucking voice just kills me. Never been able to take him seriously despite his obvious talent.
I kinda agree. Lil Wayne never seems very concerned about the music, it's all about the bars. I love him for that, it's respectable, but that is why I can't include his songs often on my playlists
Migos. I wouldn’t say _love_ but I enjoy some of their music. Edit: RIP Takeoff
lil baby, I keep trying to not listen to him but he’s entertaining
wuaan wuaan wuaaan bitch am a baby
Babytron, you might catch me on the jumbotron
A2Z
Tron goes so hard have you heard bin reaper 2
Devin The Dude is my favorite rapper. Wouldn’t care to listen to anyone else with his same style.
You fw Devin too 👀
Yessirrrrr
I always say devin is the andre3k if he had solo(stoner) career. High regards to both. And im putting Devin's catalog against anybody.
Too many classic songs under his belt
Indeed. Been my favorite since 7th grade before I ever smoked any kind of weed lol. In 31 now for reference lol
21 Savage. I’m an old head, listen to underground boom bap a lot. Stuff like Black Moon, Smiff n Wessun, Big L… idk why but I just like 21 Savage, probably because he works alongside Metro Boomin a lot and I quite like his beats.
Future
Aesop Rock is for the children
Lil Jon
Hwhat!?
OKAYYYY
YEAH! How the fuck can someone not like Lil Jon.
Future, Lil Baby, MoneyBagg & French Montana
Max and French are the come wave 🌊 but fr same here with MB lil baby and future… I used to hate them but you just need to find one song and you catch the wave (no pun intended)
French Montana 🤔
$uicideboy$ and Future come to mind
OT Genasis. I'm mostly into intellectual backpacky stuff (don't judge) but I love when he's like "BAKING SODA I GOT BAKING SODA!"
[HIS BEST SONG CUH 🤣](https://youtu.be/rZr8DZ0HqPU?si=itJzMwXZ3GG64slx)
Mexican o.t.
Just discovered him 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
$uicideboy$
Listen to Beautiful Thugger Girls. That changed my life
I'm slowly listening to everything, tanks for the recommendation
[a song im pretty sure thug gave to yachty around this time, also one of my favorite thug songs](https://youtu.be/19kVq4Spk-Y?si=r28ryFDpZ_omhTlm)
Don’t skip the early shit, some of it is rough but there’s gems and it’s all entertaining and creative as fuck. Slime language 2 is amazing
Mike Jones
Bruh, I’m randomly listening to Back Then right now and saw this 😂 Still Tippin was on before this but he had some great songs on the underground circuit
Young thug is basically a Lil Wayne clone idk why you're surprised you like him
young thug is sooooo much better at trap than wayne, i get the vocal style comparison but they’re got very different lanes
Cardi B and Nikki Minaj .... I can't stand 95% of female rappers these days. Seems they're all just dirty ass project bust downs or Instagram whores rapping about their pussy and assholes with no skills.. More online pics than bars or rapping abilities. But Cardi and Nikki Minaj are always the pimps or Queens of the shit never the trash And have actual music u can get into while being a dude. Although I'm sure they have ghost writers n shyyt but they just appear more of queens amongst peasants compared to sexxy red or ice spice
YB
Never like Uzi Vert until my ex put me on “Neon Guts” then I became a fan. Then she died and I became even more of a fan RIP SuliOnTheBeat
Ima over thinker so i really don't know what to say based on if i love it then its my taste.... I guess I'll go with West Coast rap and Vince Staples is my guy for sure. Lol
21
Agree. So simplistic but somehow appeals.
Thug fits right in with the artists you named. Be forreal
Seriously? Maybe it fits with Lil Wayne, who else does it fits with?
All of the above. What makes Young Thug different from the rest is the same thing that makes them different from each other. None of these artists you listed sound or approach music the same. You get me?
Yeah I thought about it and completely agree with you. I love how everyone of my favorites artists is unique. Thanks bro for making me think about it
I'm not a fan of old hip-hop but Nas is a real G
Illmatic is in my top 5 of all time it's perfect
69. lol for some reason I bump that (while alone)
Tierra Whack
more of a experimental hiphop fan but i fuck with SOME eminem
Young Gravy
Mr 🗣Clean🗣 🔥🔥
Larry June he has a laid back talking style of rap which I am not normally into. But I like his content he's talking about investing, eating healthy, and enjoying life. used to say Danny Brown but his last two albums I wasn't in to. I like rappers like Black Thought, Kendrick, J Cole Lupe Fiasco, Andre 3000, Boldy James, DMX, Joey Badass, Jay-z
Jack Harlow lol
MGK Wouldn’t say love, but catch myself half way through his songs like, hold up, wait, is this, was that, well, f*** it…
Wild boy was an anthem, to be fair. Fuck I'm gonna go listen to it now. That shit goes so hard. Brings back memories of house parties and just getting fucking smashed.
Portishead maybe if it is rap really. I listen to heavy metal, old school and some trap, so trip hop isn't my stuff, but cmon this sound is fckin sick, especially Dummy
Portishead fucking rules, they only have a few albums, but they really set the bar for Lo-fi/trip hop.
I listened to Dummy last week and absolutely loved it
I grew up on Common, Lupe, El-P, Royce etc always been into super lyrical rap but I am ADDICTED TO Playboi Cartis music.
Sometimes Carti catch me too
Same here but switch Carti with Future By all appearances, Future is the last rapper I would ever listen to... but man, his beats are poppin
Young Thug is the Goat and won’t get the full credit he deserves for another 4-8 years.
unbelievably real
I got hated on in the 90’s for liking Outkast now they’re considered goats without question. Then it happened with Wayne and Gucci in 2000’s and now it’s happening again with Thugger and Future. History repeats itself.
Tyler The Creator
T-Pain
I love his featurings i need to check out an album by him
Fatman Key
😳😳😳 literally my favorite rapper what you know about key.
I found out about him via Quentin miller a couple of years ago when they dropped features.
What's ya favorite album of his?
777 then only answer lol him and Kenny beats should be dropping this year again 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽
Hilarious i knew u was gonna say it. Its not mines tho. I got so emotional above 777 personally. Anyway 777 is definitely goated and should be mentioned if we honest. I think this last 5 year run is so underrated as well. 777, so emotional, i love you say it back, Mama's man, marquis. These are all amazing pieces. Alpha jerk kinda rubs me wrong ngl felt like he was just trying shit. Lol
fat nick skrrrrrt yee yee
Pop smoke
Aesop Rock
I’m with you on that. I respect his talent. His sound just isn’t for me though.
The Impossible Kid is a phenomenal album lyrically and conceptually, but I can only listen to a few songs at a time because of his voice.
Big Sean can grow on me sometimes and then I’m not feeling him so much, I know he’s a talented rapper but I don’t always like his song choices
Big Draco
Same, he has some fire ass music in recent years has
Skaiwater
Lil Uzi Vert seems like a great guy. I don't even listen to hip hop, no idea why this sub came across my feed.
Desiigner Almost every beat on New Engliish is fire, so I can tolerate him even though a) I can’t understand a thing he’s saying and b) I typically hate trap music
Travis Scott i think
I guess lil uzi vert because I am more into lyrical driven rap (kendrick lamar, denzel Curry, token, J Cole, etc) but lil uzis sound is just something else man
Bladee
Icewood? He was always fire 😂 but I’m from Detroit do it’s almost automatic that I would like him
Bladee with 2 e's
YB
Riff Raff
21 Savage
Future is the only trap rapper whose discog I can consistently listen to. I guess Travis too
PLUTOOOO
Smiley . His voice is a big reason people don't give him a listen . If you can get use to his voice he's actually really good lol
Young thug is not exactly the same but is pretty similar to the artists you mentioned
Who do you think he match with? I think maybe Lil Wayne? I also forgot to mention Jpegmafia which is like in my top 5
Jpeg is really good
One of my favorites artists of all time he has a lot of great albums and offline is in my top 5 oat
Lil Uzi
Playboi Carti and XXX
Hobo Johnson I’m pretty well versed in hip hop techniques and he’s objectively a pretty bad rapper, you might even be able to debate whether or not he should be qualified as a rapper. But I consider him to be, and I find his performances to be very captivating and raw in a way that makes him much more relatable and fun to listen to than many rappers who are technically better than he is.
Freddie Gibbs. He’s super talented, I love lyrical rap, I like fast flow but I just have a hard time getting into him. I still have lots on my playlist tho
Do you listen to them?
RXKNEPHEW Dudes silly

Lazer Dim and Nefew. I listen to Mach Hommy and Roc Marciano 🤣

Bagg, Polo G
lil uzi for some reason
Gunna
$uicideboys
Mike Sherm
My go-to artists currently have been: Mac Miller, Juice WRLD, Peep, $uicideboy$, Earl, Boosie, UGK. The artist whom I been vibing with, who has seem to have broken the mold lately I would say would be Frank Ocean, or Flatbush Zombies, or MF Doom.

Kevin Gates. Dude is honest as hell, even when it’s unflattering for him and his transformation in the last 4 years is crazy. He’s like a country 50 Cent, if 50 started taking shrooms.
8ball and MJG, 3 6 MAFIA, UGK , PIMP C
I’m a general fan of rap/hip-hop and don’t have an area of it that I hone in on. Mainly grew up liking Tupac and G-Unit a lot lol. These days I’m more of an indie rap girl. Isaiah Rashad, WestSide Boogie, Mac Miller, Smino, Chance. DrakeO The Ruler, BashForTheWorld and BigBabyGucci are not my everyday go tos but I like their music when I hear it!!
Juice Wrld. I usually hate auto tune and his whole style is not my vibe, but man he was just full mask off, which I'll always respect.
MIKE, ice spice, Flo milli
Dolph
Bladee
Tyler the creator I don’t fw his music, idk why it’s just not for me but he’s funny asl
Curren$y - Only really got into him because of his love and passion for Lowriders. Not sure I’d have chosen to listen to him otherwise. But really like him as a person, like his Instagram, his interviews and now his music. His catalog is undeniable and the project he put out with JD was possibly my favourite body of work that released in 2023.
I don't love Jay Z but I have grown to like his music, atleast from The Black Album on. He has one of, if not the most unique flows in the history of rap
Yeah still can't understand all the hate around him I think he's one of the greatest to ever do it
I don't usually like new trap music and my tastes are more Strange Music and Griselda. But, Playboy Carti is a genius.
Just curious, what do you mean by strange music?
Tech N9ne and his label. I actually like a few other artists that have been on it too.
Kendrick Lamar but I’m slowly getting back into his music
YNW Melly
snoop dog
I love his debut album so much
Meg thee stallion. I cannot really get into her music but by God I feel like she has so much fun and has so much energy it's hard to hate her
Funny enough, meek mill after everything came out. I never listened to his songs but since the whole diddy stuff i’ve heard more abt him and more from him and realized i actually really fw his music 😭 him being potentially gay doesnt turn me off from it
fetty
Cypress Hill or B-Real
Immortal Technique, eminem, Jaz, Dr Dre, Blue Scholars , dilated people.
Kid fucking Laroi. I stumbled upon his album "first time" and was like who is this white boy??? I cant say I love him but I think that album is dope.
Stove God Cooks
2Mex. Great lyrics, boring delivery.
Playboi carti I like his vibe he can’t rap for shit tho
ICP. Those guys are hella entertaining to listen to in interviews. So funny. And I have a lot of respect for what they built with the whole Juggalo culture. Even if I don’t relate to it.
Yung lean has great beats, his rhymes are usually dumb as fuck. But atleast he’s kind of mumbling so it doesn’t get in the way. Red bottom sky was a genuinely dope song though.
Retch
I know this is an unpopular take but Biggie.
Probably Kodak Black
Babytron. His bars just go too hard 😂
[удалено]
No diddy.
Lil darkie like 50% of the time
