    This always sounded great tho, legendary freestyle honestly. Its probably the most viewed OAT. But yeah em fell off the most in terms of flow and delivery, its like he hit his head or something.

    Why people act like they don't have working ears??

    I know what @Big Dangerous by tryna point out.

    But....... lets not act like em can't flow well anymore, just because he doesn't do it to suit our liking.

    Caterpillar em flow is perfect. Isolated example I know, but you can't say the man can't flow anymore when he drops a verse like that out of nowhere.

    He just doesn't seem want to use conventional flows anymore. His flow these days is not usually easy on the ear. People can't rap along as easily and pick up all the lyrics first listen so they don't take to it as well.

    His growing obsession with syllables and rhyme schemes became him trying to fit too many words in all at once and it completely f----- up his flow

    Disorderly Progress What's cookin?

    Jun 14, 2018
    What?? It's fire.

    Obviously some of it he's f---ing around, but when he goes ham with what sounds like an R2 verse... that verse is great.

    "Cutting and pasting headlines in the papers
    Making shrines of my crimes and capers"

    Great writing and flow.

    you're delusional
    flow and delivery are better than anything on Revival but it still sounds grossly forced, nothing like his last fluent flow (09, maybe some Recovery verses)

    Ok guy.

    lol Just Because it's not a mimic of his late 90's/early 00's simplistic plodding flow doesn't make it grossly forced. The f--- is u on man?? He aint gonna flow like 'if I had' is he on that beat S1 gave them.

    This is my very point and you're only proving it. It's not that he CANT flow the way you all want him to flow. It's just that he chooses not to for the most part. Either that or the beat selection doesn't call for a slow simple flow. how can you flow like you did for the rock bottom beat.... on the caterpillar beat?? Are you not hearing how different those beats are?

    lol
