    I dunno who the rainbow people in OP all are lmfao. But Gunna, Lil Baby, Greedo are ones I enjoy. Same w Uzi (some of it). Do you like Future and Thug btw never knew ur opinion on them

    yeah again what I was saying wasn’t @ u specifically, just an explanation as to why the term mumble rap doesn’t make sense on multiple levels lmao

    I think the real answer is there’s like 20 different new waves going on simultaneously and occasionally intersecting and there’s just such a vast amount the casual listener can’t sift thru it all and considers mumble rap to be whatever dozen new guys they gave a chance

    I tried Lil Peep and the guy honestly is just not talented at all IMO, he sings one note badly and that's all he ever does/did on any song period

    Everyone sayin Denzel this Denzel that, I hear Denzel on tracks and he puts me to sleep like this is the guy everyone is saying is dope? Ugh I just don't get it man. None of these guys click for me

    Yeah this is true. I mean people can say I'm out of touch w these things which is partly true. Because I'm not on any social media and not american. In Europe most people dont even know the more popular rappers in US. I'l listen to whatever guys like you, @Big Cuntry @Squiddie Redd etc show me from newer rappers and its always hit or miss. I just sometimes get sick of the trap sounds when I hear 10 artists rapping on them, which is why I label it sometimes as that. I like it when an artist raps on different sounds, hence why I love HNDRXX so much. Still, there is a lot of talent out there to enjoy along w stuff I wont like.

    Is it so uncommon to not really like any of the guys in OP? Mike just said he didn't even know most of them
