Ahh gotcha. I admit, it's an acquired taste that takes a while to get used to. At least you gave it a shot. I've gotten some of my friends to listen to the stuff too and they're liking some of it.

I really enjoy their beats though...that's probably what draws me to it. And, having British blood lol

At the end of the day there is enough music right here nobody listens to, I don't need to go to another continent for more. Besides everyone knows French rap is much better...

Whenever I hear a British rapper, I feel like watching a Harry Potter movie.

I liked the last track the best, but the beat wasnt that hot, until the last 45 seconds when it switched up.

The 2nd track was way too formulaic and sounded like a Drake song and Im no fan of Drake.

1st track beat was aite, lyrically it was cool.

He's aite, theres a few new cats I like better though.

Yeah I think it all depends on how you rate new rappers, everyone got a different system I'm sure. For me I can listen to a mixtape and if it has a few standout tracks I'll keep an eye on them to see if they improve. To me he is getting better with every mixtape, so I keep following them.

What other new cats are out there? Hell I'm always on the search for new music.

Why hasn't Jada dropped a freestyle over 'I'm a Boss' yet?

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLQdoclJn_s[/youtube]

Just listen to the instrumental and envision Jada's delivery over this sh*t.. UHH!

It's just too right for it not to be done!
