co-sign. i cant even front son has arguably the best flow out of all of them but he's not rapping about anything i thought after bk girls hewas gonna come with heat but son on some sonic and knuckles !*!*
 
Drake is a PROBLEM. I just gave his material my ears and I'm shocked @ his talent level.

Wale is decent to me but his flow/breath control could improve. he definitely says some #@#
Asher Roth could be solid from what i heard
Blu...i'm liking what i hear...pm me them links if ya'll got em.
Mickey Factz...met dude twice...he's always performing and i gotta give Kudos to him. tearing up venues is the route to go.
Cudi is a pop star in the making who can "rap"
 
Peep avy!

1. Charles Hamilton
2. Blu (been on dudes music since 07ish? I was actually surprised to see him grouped with all these other freshmen)
3. Wale
 
Blu, Wale, & Factz. I +$!* with Curren$y, too.

Drake is better than all of them, though. Blu is probably the only one that can see him.
 
Anyone else feel like being a serious rapper who attacks tracks is a trend that is dying a lil bit with this group? I've been feelin Blu for a long time,but I feel like he doesn't fit in with this group at all. Obviously he's more lyrically talented, but his raps also just have far more purpose, while Ijust love blastin Charles Hamilton while i'm kickin it with the homies
 
C.Ham is weak to me.

his voice annoys me and he has this arrogance about him...like "all" artists have it ("I'm unf---wittable") but i dont see it with him

Drake,Wale,Blue,Factz maybe...but not him
 
KiD CuDi. His mixtape was amazing.

And what is with all the hate on Charles Hamilton? I seriously don't get it.
 
Charles Hamilton is a cornball.

You just know he was that guy in high school. Listen to one of his interviews. Dude is so lame.

Brooklyn Girls was

though.

I need y'all to give me some Cudi, Blu, Drake zshares or something. For the most part, I haven't heard any of their stuff.

I completely agree with this statement.
 
Blue, Wale and Factz.

Blu makes actual songs. he's not the type to pull a punchline, or metaphors ala Fab or anything,
but he makes music you can actually relate to. ( outta all of em cats on the cover )
Below The Heavens track for track is pretty much his life and growin up facin diff problems from comin up,
poverty, havin a kid at a young age, bad relationships, etc. So those who lookin for ill punchlines, he's not really for you.
But if you want vivid imagery and music that can make you nostalgic and / or bring emotion outta you, he got it.

Wale got a lot of substance as well, but he delivers the witty
metaphors with 'em so they come off as more entertaining.

Factz tho, he's a beast when he's asked to freestyle, but he doesn't
come as hard ( PAUSE ) on his songs. lotta creativity though, but
i wish he'd bring it more on his tapes.
 
Wale, Cudi and Gunz are the only ones I mess with with on that list.
