    "If we’re gonna be honest, some of the dopest music is coming out of Atlanta right now, but all them n*ggas sound the same. Here [New York City] there’s not as much dope sh*t – well it is, but a lot of people don’t see it the way I see it. [New York rappers] don’t sound alike. Everybody got their own different thing going on.

    Them Atlanta dudes – it’s a few dudes that’s doing their own thing that’s killing it. I’m not saying all Atlanta rappers sound the same, but for the most part, majority. They all kind of have similar cadences, flows and delivery. They even recycle the same lyrics from each other.

    I gotta just say it. This ain’t dissing nobody, but I don’t understand how Future can make a song like “Sh*t.” Then this n*gga, I forget his name… You make “OG Bobby Johnson” and it’s like, “head shot, head shot, hit them with the…” It’s the same thing Future’s saying. And we allowed that.

    Not taking nothing away from Que – I know his name – I just feel like, come on. I like the song. If you ask me if I like the song – yes, it’s a dope song… and this sounds like I’m downplaying this guy. I don’t even know him, so I don’t got nothing against him. I’m just telling the situation. I feel like it’s okay to be inspired, but you can’t bite off contemporary artists that’s in your same league."

    @Squid is right. ALLA was a huge letdown and extremely overhyped. It's better than his debut but it's nothing like people make it out to be. His mixtape days are still better.

    I'm not saying A$AP is wrong, but his album was a bust.

    Aside from M's, LPFJ2, and Electric Body, (maybe Holy Ghost) nothing on the album did anything special for me.

    I liked M's, Canal Street, Holy Ghost, LPFJ2, Electric Body (besides that chorus...woof.), Everyday, LSD, & Excuse me...but the amount of filler on that album wrecked it.
    ..and when I say I like them, I mean I listened to them a few times and don't mind when they come on with shuffle, but I don't go out of my way to hear them.

    He is right. Will be interesting to see if any ATL rappers diss him or if someone tries to run up on him next time he is in Atlanta
