East is an example of what happens when you don’t have artist development in 2020. He’s far from being wack, he just doesn’t have an aura or anything interesting that makes him standout musically.

With that said, Unruly is one of the hardest joints I heard all year. East got joints that are dope and then he has joints that are ehhh. He’s inconsistent as hell and be lazy at times

Haven't liked much from him since the Kairi Chanel tape.



Like I said in another thread, he's an extreme hit or miss dude. When he on, he only really on in the sense of like a PJ Tucker nikka. But when he off? It's like the Rockets missing 20 threes in a row, just Master P sneaker ugly :scust:

Only thing that annoys me about East is that I like his old shyt better

I still fukk with his music, but he doesn't use as many flows as he used too

After Kairi Chanel, he switched his style up.. and I'm not even sure why

I suspect its because he thinks it may get more mainstream appeal, but to me its not as creative

dude is cool and makes solid music

just doesn’t seem to have what it takes to get to that next step commercially

I still check for his songs tho
