Do any of yall mess with this Aesop Rock dude. I been running across his vids lately and dude seems to be one of them lyrical miracle, abstract ? with no real substance rappers. And his fans seem to be annoying as ? too, on some pretentious hipster type ? . Oh yeah and apparently ASAP Rocky stole his name from this dude too lol.

So let me know IC is he wack? Or..............





Is he wack?

    the beats on his float record are crazy. i'm not a big fan but he does his thing. i do agree that his fans are annoying as ? but i wouldn't call him a complex magazine rapper since he predates them and also they're not secure in their hipsterness enough to show him any love without being worried about how it would be perceived.

    I know ASAP didn't steal his name that was a joke lol, but his fans do hate dude though. And I had been heard of him, but just now really going through some of his tracks.

    Could be but back in the day this sh*t wouldn't fly. It's just like when that slow n*gga J-Kwon came out heads felt he kinda bit Rae. Some things you just don't do IMO.

    PS You got a n*gga named Short Dogg eventhough that's been Too $hort's nickname since the late 80's or w/e. I don't know man, these new dudes got different rules to this game I guess...

    One dude name is based off of a Greek storyteller other an acronym for always strive and prosper, different spelling and everything, It's nitpicking to be tripping over similar syllables in this situation. They're still two distinct names.

    ASAP rocky is named that because his name is Rakim I believe. I did once have someone tell me they don't ? with Rocky because they were an Aesop rock fan though lol

    Never been a fan of Aesop

    I didn't really care, but I was just saying rappers used to watch out for name resemblances. I can give two f*cks about a wack a*s Aesop Rock BTW.
