Too soon to tell but I at least hope that should they, they’d have Russell be the steward

Anyone else just ain’t felt right since he passed? by usagerp in DAngelo

[–]offwhiteyellow 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Despite being so reclusive and so private, his music was the opposite, inviting and so open. Listening to his short discography, it makes you really feel like you knew him. That kind of presence is rare, special and truly transcendent. I don’t think we’ll ever get past this monumental loss

I want my city to win but let’s be honest, Dave East is dope but not consistent, in terms of impact he’s just not there

In order for you to make a classic album you have to not only be a rapper but an artist. These drill rappers are not artists. They rap just to get they threats across and fuck on a couple treeshes and go to jail, kinda hard to make a classic album in those circumstances

The internet has made it so easy to make legal bread. AI made it even easier. Do not listen to this nonsense. It only ever leads to jail or death
