So the appeal is in the fact that is "unrelateable" and "unclean and uneven. He’s not a particularly great rapper, so the verse worked into the middle of the song is clumsy and a slight momentum-killer." I don't like it even though I am a massive hip hop fan. Among other bands, I have seen Public Enemy probably more than any other white guy (probably an exaggeration) and have had a one on ones with Chuck D and Rick Rubin. Not trap so much though so maybe that is the issue. I have nothing against cash and weed but that is just about the only thing I see or hear in that video. And voice enhancement does not do anything for me. Anyone can sound OK behind a computer. Thanks for the links.
