^^True that, Kendrick & Jay Electronica are both respectable artists imo. They can get down w/ both mainstream or underground. But they aren't wannabe mainstream rappers, they're more versatile & hybrid. In other words, they're still trying to stick to their own sound in most cases.
But my previous post isn't based on Mistah F.a.b., Clyde, or E-40, just a majority of artists including a majority of bay artists have nothing new or different to say today other than bowing down to the almighty pussy, but i feel it, they're trynna get club hits/anxious to make any kind of dough but damnn that shit gets hella played out.
