I've tried over the years to get into zoo but his voice is so bland and boring still.

He's like the least charismatic rapper ive ever ever heard. But I've honestly given him many chances because he does have respect among his peers. But he just puts me to sleep. Ambien.

This here.
I've been trying since day one, and dude really bores me. He sounds like he's bored on his own songs.
I loved what Premier did for him with "Get It Done", but that was like almost 20 years ago. Bro's literally been in the same spot his whole career because he's missing a lot of what gets MC's pushed forward. He's always sounded like he was trying to cosplay old Jay-Z flows and cadences from '97, but he's so dry, it doesn't work.
The production on this project is dope though. Somebody like Pharoahe Monch would've made a classic album with these beats.

I also tend to find Skyzoo’s flow boring but I know there is something there.
I just struggle to listen to more than a couple of his tracks at a time and overall I don’t keep albums in my Spotify Library for long.
But, I really like this album so far. Prob gonna be the first to really settle in that zone for me, personally.

For sure. On top of his lack of charisma, there's a facile mind guiding the song and album concepts, a sensibility for muzak reworking of already-used-samples, a mimicry of jay-z inflection with none of the wit or edge, and a proclivity for selling mumbo jumbo as layered "easter egg" lyricism.
Record Store Day is one of the most unintentionally hilarious songs I've heard since... whatever the last unintentionally hilarious, overly earnest Skysnooze song was. On Jazz in the Projects he revisits a self-parodical concept he has executed before on his albums: he bores the listener with 3 minutes of nothingness raps, then improbably overexplains the lyrics for 5 more minutes.
This guy is the personification of yikes.
But say @Walt, out of all New York rappers which one represents that NY sound the most for you?
I do agree that Skyzoo is overly poetic, suffers from chronic rhyming rather than expounding on a cohesive (or even coherent) train of thoughts.
Sound wise, I can't recall a rapper that most gives you that NY feel with their project. Joey Badass could've been the one, but he's somehow worse than Skyzoo sonorically to me, even lyrically.
I believe you've made it quite clear why he bores/disappoints you, but I would be remiss not to notice that you still check out his projects. What is it that gets you to press play, I'm just trying to see if it aligns with why I check out his projects.
