    like honestly somebody explain the appeal of his music to me

    His voice is horrendous, his flow is basically non existent and he lacks charisma.

    Only redeeming quality is his lyricism which really isnt that impressive.

    Is it just cause he's part of TDE?

    i find his voice to extremely interesting sonically and his lyrics are arranged in way that make them poetic but not its a just an interesting approach to rapping its not for everyone but tis definitely for me .

    i think calling him an unimpressive lyricist might be a bit harsh, but i completely understand not liking him.. Isn't that strange to hear that someone on this site respek someone else's opinion?

    anyway here are some good things that he has done in his career

    How many songs have you guys actually heard of his? If These Days... and Control System are the only projects you've heard by him, then youre cheating him and yourself by not listening to some very dope music he has.
