    What I love most about this kid aside from the obvious fact that his lyrical maturity and skill level is way ahead of his age, is that he literally reminds me of a combination of RA + Gift of Gab + Tonedeff + Pun + Pep Love + Biggie + Chali2Na + Tech N9ne. That's fuckin INSANE. Those are just some of my all time favorite emcees. So to sound like an embodiment of all their styles at only 17 is a true gift.

  • @seanyoung9014
    @seanyoung9014 9 років тому +13

    I have an enormous amount of respect for this kid but all of y'all saying he's the savior of hip hop need to pump your brakes. No doubt he's got an amazing flow but it's gonna take a lot more than that to "save hip hop". The main thing it's going to take is people actually paying for hip hop albums and in order for that to happen, someone needs to make hip hop music that people actually want to buy. Most of y'all heaping praise on this kid know damn well y'all don't buy music but are the main ones complaining about the state of hip hop as if niggas are just gonna make classics for free and do dope live shows that nobody goes to. Believe me, there are a ton of amazing rappers who had to give up and work 9 to 5 jobs because they got families to support and so called hip hop fans ain't really showing love.

    • @elspiclatino
      @elspiclatino 9 років тому

      +Sean Young ... saving rap is more than hitting the mainstream it's about the art itself and it's so rare that someone comes out with such raw talent and obvious passion that it's noticeable if you can't see why the hip hop connoisseurs find this guy to be the "savior" of rap then it's because you're apart of the problem,I would buy every single album I can get my hands on, I'll be at every show this guy is performing when he comes to my city and you know why? because I'm a real hip hop fan I hate when stupid shit is representing hip hop... real hip hop fans know real hip hop isn't playing on the radio, you're from that top 40 demographic. you the same as those idiots who base how good a song is on how catchy the beat and hook is, you're the idiot fan who allow these pieces of shit's to ruin hip hop and on behalf of every real hip hop fan let me be the one to say fuck you and fuck everyone who agree's with you!!

    [Verse 1]
    (Hey the afro villain is back?)
    Hi my name is A-F-R-O, what’s up y'all?
    I am a literal, lyrical, little nigga with an earful of peer
    Mere, sheer into feared cleared middlemen
    Flow inactive, coping out with the coke bag
    Hold back, flow chance, shows growing in advance
    Knowing the fast, blowing the pass, hoping and coping an omen to dance
    Flowing and roaming is leaving his hoe with a dope under
    Beat too slow with his hands
    (Tokyo mobster)
    Godzilla rocking, knocking, iller stomping on the killer marker
    Fonder stomp McCarthy villain with Islamic scriptures
    Twist the picture, rip it, swivel it into slivers
    In the image, killing off the minutes
    (What the fuck?)
    Sipping with your mama, in the office kicking on the liver
    Cinnamon bitches driving titty zombies over the city
    Posting ovaries, and I’m stirring the soup
    First verse earning the loot, earn worse words, you’re a doofus
    (Hold out)
    Roar for raw town, raw pound, show ‘em out
    White cheesy people like you full house
    Mic seething evil, leaving bleeding sheeple rolling down
    Even Stevens, dream of meeting the master
    (That’s KRS)
    Rap attack feed the rest, half-assed be the bet
    Matter of fact I’m laughing and I’m stacking up the amulets
    [Chorus]
    I’m feeling so groovy now, Afro’s flow fuck your head up
    Let’s begin it like this, the definition of a rap flow, I’mma reinvent it like this
    I’m feeling so groovy now, Afro’s flow fuck your head up
    Let’s begin it like this, the definition of a rap flow, I’mma reinvent it like this
    Afro is along rap to save the day
    [Verse 2]
    Medicine, eminent, feminist
    Sentimental with edges of lead or metals
    Settled in envision listen to ed and minimal
    And ripping a little bit, sending in a villain
    Im Feeling a little bit envy
    In the bit ending rhythm is heavy rhythm is ending
    Put em in training, lazy raising, amazing ages that Asian faces
    Stay’in ya lane in the rapist cave and layin’ in the safe havens
    Master us, the hazardous, half-magical, black kid
    Stabbed and catapult rap, fashionable
    I’m half of animal slash cannibalistic aneurysm
    Trapped in the manner of rapping wisdom and I’m manifold
    Rakim taught me to grab the microphone and slap the mighty hoes that try to_ pie ya from my snotty nose
    I am on the world to save ya, robbing all the virgin players
    Rhyming urban betrayers to swerve in layers
    Im in the urge for learning that the maker
    Serving a murderous rage assuring him an burning it with affirmative data
    Earning a whip, burning the matches, hah
    16 year old kid murdering burdens asserting the damage
    Hah motherfucker you don’t understand
    Kick you in the head like RA did to Macklemore
    Legend never dies stop phasing atta boy that annoyed
    [Chorus]
    I’m feeling so groovy now, Afro’s flow fuck your head up
    Let’s begin it like this, the definition of a rap flow, I’mma reinvent it like this
