the days of the ugly and fat rappers is gone..
Drake is here…
Sometimes I wish Drake would do a Smack DVD or be angry and vocally agressive and diss or beef with someone..
but he’s always showing off his dimples…and blushing…

Rawse don’t really elevate beats though…like, you can’t throw him on “Run This Town” and have him demolish it the way Wayne did.
Wayne elevates beats, Rawses beats elevate him.

Fam, that vimeo freestyle was vaporized pif inhalants. I’m not sure who the Uncle Ruckus nigga who was spitting before you was but your bars pretty much made his irrelevant.

EXACTLY.
Wayne sounds even better on cheap southern synth beats than he does on the good stuff, since they let him really show his personality without distraction. Imagine Ross rapping over the “Walk It Out” beat.
