Bad flow? Lmao. Hahaa

Anyway, this was a solid debut album. I had faith in him and he didn't disappoint.
I'm happy y'all enjoyed it!

And Menzo, I like his voice too. And to say that he almost had to stop rapping because he had a polyp in his throat.. Glad he didn't stop!

@Hage, this won't reach 100k I think. It will probably do betteer than SH tho.

Fun fact: MGK didn't want to do Invincible. It was Interscope who gave the track to K.dot, Mgk and Yelawolf. None of them wanted it, but people were losing jobs over that and he had to do it.

He doesn't like when people give him a song with a hook, he likes working with the hook makers in the studio. Sometimes, he even writes the hooks and let people sing. That's dope!

End of the Road has an amazing feeling. No matter how old it is.

I don't really see any problem with his voice. Lyrically he's good, nothing incredible or that I haven't heard before but he holds his own. For what he has to work with he picked good beats, well placed guest features and made a dope album. I think I'll probably buy this, seems like some cool shit to drive to.

One part that I really liked was how he got 2 of the fastest rappers in the world on "Edge of Destruction" and instead of chopping all three went relatively half speed, I liked that.

I'm wondering how critics will review it? Because they probably expect a trap album. And they get a.. Well, it's a personal album.

I think people already have him stereo typed as just another Fast rapper which will prevent people from going into it with an open mind. Critically speaking, if we're talking about the Pitchfork type Elitest Douche bag art nazi type critics, there gonna shit all over it if they pay attention at all. But for the hip hop critics I wouldn't be surprised if it got alot of 4/5 type ratings.

Yeah, it's probably because you thought he was just another Gucci mane, mac miller or 2chainz. :p

He's real as fuck and his content is great overall. Some may not like how he talks about the hood, but he's from there, he lived it.. So I don't care.

"Me and my team we throwin L's up but it's funny that we're winning" haha :y:

I'm not the only one who think that most white rappers have a bad flow ( opinion ofc).
we're on trshady ^^ there are a lot of other forums :unsure:
(I'm also white, this has nothing to do with racism, I just REALLY think that every single white rappers sound terribad except Eminem :y: )
didn't say the album was bad, didn't listen to it except a few songs, just said what I thought about his voice =p

same for yela, ppl going to say he isn't a seller coz he isn't mainstream, but every friend of mine will say " eeer no, I don't even want to discover that new song, his voice sucks", So I assume there are a LOT OF PEOPLE hatin yelawolf, mgk or mac miller just because of their voice

here, perfect example :y:
manix enjoys his flow, it's ok, but he doesn't like his voice, so how can you rly listen to someone if he sounds bad to you :whistle:
Thi is music, not only "hip hop", the voice is so fucking important.
Good for him if other ppl enjoys his voice, but wherever I go, I can see ppl hatin that artist for that reason

I'm glad K.Dot didn't take that beat though Trimss. It fits either MGK or Yelawolf better but it was still a horrible attempt at another Alex da Kid making a hit beat. MGK did it justice tbh, but I'm surprised people were losing jobs damn...
