Lyrics Born, what happened?

He started out as a key member of Solesides and the Quannum Crew. I've been enjoying his music for years, he's got a lot of talent. Some of his early stuff just blows me away.

Not that his new stuff isn't good... Technically the music is excellent, he keeps rolling along with great beats, loops, rhythm and so on... But his lyrics? His last few albums are filled with songs in which he brags about how cool he is. It's very disappointing. Irritating even.

I just bought his 4th Variety Show album, and frankly, I'm sad. It's not very interesting. The first 2 were great, the third was OK. This one... it just lacks substance.

According to his latest songs, he says he "made it". I guess he means he is earning lots of money from tours, since people are starting to learn his name. Bu I say he sold out. Is there a difference?
