    So I can edited it with my answers to Koolo's questions?

    Although knowing me I'll probably just post it again further down. The "reserved" was kinda my way of acknowledging the thread

    Thanks for your concern tho Myril :emoji_thumbsup:

    • Hasn't had that much material but he has a unique almost unorthodox sound that grabs heavy Southern & Midwestern influence, maybe appealing to some while most might dismiss it as unoriginal.
    • Shortcoming's I'd say are his work ethic and he sometimes sounds repetitive or uninspired. Not a bad lyricist but not a great one either.
    • Has a lot of charisma and he raps over some heavenly production, his music is fun to listen to imo.
    • Best song? I'd go with Brand New Guy or Peso been playing both religiously for awhile.
    • Lastly I think he has a bright future if he tries expanding his artistic range and stays consistent. He's a big personality outside of music so that helps too.

    The best thing about him is his flow and his beat selection (loved when hes on Clam Casino beats)

    His shortcomings are everything else

    My favorite song by him is Bass

    Don't know what the future holds for him but im anticipating his new album (Danger Mouse reportedly executive producing his album)

    I don't know if Trap Lord is > everything by Rocky, but I just like Ferg better overall.

    Also, he has not been average since his first project lol. Ferg Forever had a bunch of great tracks and showcased a good amount of creativity on his part. And his verse on Old English >>>>>

    Live Love Asap might be the best project between the two but I dont think Rocky can ever pull that off again

    lol ferg forever is exactly what I'm talking about. I mean, my expectations comin off trap lord were pretty f---ing high tho. nowhere near the same caliber though.

    trap lord is probably a bit better than live love

    huge fan of Rocky, unique style, amazing flow, excellent ear for beats and an all round good emcee. Really enjoyed both Live Love and Long Live, what be cool to hear some new material though. From Ferg, I've only heard Trap Lord which was good but not anywhere near the level of Rpcky's projects in my opinion. Still, looking forward to new music from both of them.

    Oh yeah and the few tracks that were released from that shelved ASAP Mob project were bangers, disappointed we didn't get to hear any more.

    His album showed great potential and the fact Juicy J just announced hes co producing the next album also is amazing news for fans an asap. Dude better drop a fire album. His biggest downfall for me is the annoying fashion rap bs
