Generic and vapid bars? The nigga be talking real life visceral street s***, what are you on about

Nothing we haven't heard before. And heard it written and delivered far better.

Lemme guess, you're not even aware of the tigrayan culture, history and stories he incorporates into his music that completely separates it from what you're referring to

Give it a rest. You're making it sound like he's out here talking about it the way woods talks about Africa or Mach Haiti. The bulk of his bars are generic street rap.

'I love the money, love to get it
I hit the bank with the slow dance
I'm getting new money
I tell the teller 'I need all tens''

Beyond boring. Multitude of other examples can be pointed to.

Please, feel free to enlighten me with your most standout Sideshow verse.

Just getting into this new Jadasea project and that’s released under 10k too

Never said it was on Woods level. You're the one who brought him up intentionally to belittle Sideshow so that's your s***. They're different rappers going for different things. Hopefully you understand that rappers can be judged on individual merit without the constant comparisons y'all love to do on here but i forgot this is ktt after all

Again, please show me an example of a verse where he's really digging into Tigrayan culture, history and stories beyond surface level references like 'thats Tigray with a capital T'.

You're very defensive of all these rappers like they're your mates or something. This is a forum, probably shouldn't be here if you're not expecting to encounter contrasting views. People are allowed to not stan everybody. I've given Sideshow a shot plenty times now, I fail to find much redeeming in his music, I think his bars are extremely weak. It's okay to have an opinion and not like every artist in this orbit.

You said he's doing stuff which separates his material from others doing street raps, well feel free to give an example, perhaps I missed that verse or wasn't paying close enough attention.

Probably the wrong thread for this but idc

Falling Out of The Sky or Tabula Rasa?

Tough 1 but think Tabula Rasa by a little bit for me

Honestly I'm with you that the lyrics don't do that much for me. All about his flows and laid-back swagger to me and his pretty consistently great beat selection.

The laid-back vibes he nails like barely anyone in the game rn imo. That coupled with his technically skill is what I return to his tapes for. Also love how this environment he creates in his music brings out some of the most free and fun verses from his guests.

Aw s*** good looks. Makes a lot of sense no doubt they seem to be pretty close

Falling Out of the Sky

Fair enough. Appreciate the take.

Mmmmmm….. Tabula I think

I honestly can't pick
