Making soulless Dungeon Fam knockoffs while looking like a guy who Big Gipp woulda robbed is unforgiveable

PEACE
Yet "Death Is Silent" was actually good and I can't even remember if I've ever heard a Ryu verse. Voted Ryu.

One of my most important criteria for judging rappers: if I can tell you're white just by the sound of your voice, I can't listen to you. Kno might be the whitest sounding rapper next to Paul Barman. (Love his production though.)

Him and Natti both, IMO. Kno is a better producer than he is a rapper, obviously, but he's not awful on the mic. He had some witty lines in their Will Rap For Food/Southernunderground days.

True. And I forgot that Natti was added to group. Plus, A Piece Of Strange was my shit.

I'm going to go back and re-listen to some Styles Of Beyond just hear Ryu spit. I just barely have a memory of what he's done.
