Drakeo fans never listened to Suga Free or even Snoop Dogg I guess
DAWG! I said this on Twitter. NLU and GNX reminded me of the Suga Free flow. And they killed me on Twitter. And when I say “they” I’m not even talking about LA natives.
“What!? Kendrick bit directly off Drakeo! The hell you talking about!?”
Granted, yeah. I think Drakeo recently being the most popular artist to run with that flow, he may have inspired kendrick to reincorporate this classic westcoast flow, after drakeos passing. But it’s definitely not a Drakeo invention. It alwyas sounded like a traditional Westcoast flow ushered in by Suga Free comedic almost Richard Pryor inspired wit, and by DJ Quik by extension of Quik and Suga Free behind work partners.
“Beat yo ass and hide the Bible if god watching” sound like something Suga Free would’ve said on Streets Gospel.
