The enigma that is Lil B

The guy isn't as dumb as I initially thought he was.. this was the first track I heard from him, about a year ago, and it was so bad I never bothered with him again


But then, I stumbled onto this track, and I was fairly impressed.  It's a good concept, and while the guy isn't exactly Nas on the mic, it's not bad.  There's an actual flow and delivery there that is not heard on that "I Look Like Hannah Montana" garbage.  The beat is pretty enjoyable as well.

 



I'm thinking.. he probably puts out obvious garbage to attract attention, and then puts out decent material for the "real hip hop" heads and whatnot.  It's actually a smart marketing strategy. 

GOAT worthy? Fuck no.  Enjoyable music? Yeah, I believe so.

    Doesn't do it for me I'm afraid. Doesn't have his own unique style in my opinion.

    But hey, each to their own! Thanks for sharing though, who knows, I may have loved him!

    He's okay, but definitely no where near the greats... Weezy blows this dude out of the water easy... check out Big Sean if you get the chance

    Based solely on those two tracks I'd think dude has multiple personality disorder. I checked out some of his other songs on youtube. Most were just kinda ok. Doubt I'll bother keeping an eye out for him.
