Different from Gambino, but QuESt and YONAS are VERY good too.

Everyone else I don't agree with. I do like Slaughterhouse though, but not more than Gambino.

great i guess? there's nothing i can say to convince you of anything if section 80/xxx/r4 and the likes haven't already done it.

edit: thats a cop out by me, my bad i'll elaborate.

gambinos awful punchlines(im headin west like im fckin blowin kanye) combined with the lame "is there room for a rapper in the game with short shorts" in a time where theres a lane for EVERYONE just adds up to mediocrity for me.

Childish Gambino is funny. He's a childish gambino. He has a place, but it's not as like the next awesome rapper. He's good. But he's a niche rapper.

I guess we just have different opinions thats all.

I never really enjoyed arguing about music that much in general though. Everyone has different opinions, so there is no real answer to who is the future of hip hop and what not.

BTW im a big Kendrik Lamar fan. That was a good rapper to bring up. Can't really argue against him. Still big on Gambino though :D

Gambino and Big Sean should make a single of only punch lines...they both are GREAT at them.

The Crakk beat tape is pretty good.
The Stevie Crooks mixtape was pretty damn entertaining to me, a good listen.

I've never been a big Common fan (never really gave him my time), but I'm digging this and Celebrate. I'm looking forward to The Dreamer, The Believer.

I cannot wait until the CD drops. I have VERY high expectations for it.

Roots album is just filthy, close to the best album of the year. Need to let it digest a bit more, but damn on first listen this is really good.

I've been meaning to post this for a while...only downloaded it because XV is one of my favorite rappers. However, LOS does a good job in the song too IMO -- LOS has some great lines in the song including a few about the Knicks and XV has one about Magic Johnson. Haven't heard anything else by LOS, though.
