In short, lyricism: yes, voice/flow: no. That goes for both of them and it's hard for me to get past.

i can see the voices being annoying, but they can definitely flow

but Term K's voice kinda grew on me.. Accumental's voice is just whatever

and for anyone interested, they just dropped an EP for free download, i haven't listened to it yet

what i like most about them is watching them do their raps in one take on video. those videos i posted from them are them at their best

they're kinda funny in their "Palmer Square reports" or whatever too

these guys are too college "bro"-ey for me. They talking about how rap has gone soft,

shooting video's in college frathouse basements with dubstep playing lol

yeah I hate when kids, who's parents are paving their future for them, make textbook rhymes that sound dynamic, but are unsubstantial drivel, made worse by the fact that they think they are in a position to say "rap has gone soft", or "i grew up where sirens go off every hour"

The fact that they are so desperate to seem eccentric, most notable in the first video, does bother me. The goggles in the bathtub with the bong just screams "hey look at this zany personality", it's just unconvincing.

No doubt do i feel a stronger attachment to people who present themselves in a similar light to my own. It's far from the most important critique, but of course I'm going to relate to someone who I like their style/mannerisms more.

Race is hardly the issue here, I just have a bone to pick with these particular individuals. I've encountered some similar brosefs while at UNI, and they are partially responsible for my eventual termination

EDIT: this isn't me trying to shit all over your thread again, it's honesty how i feel after watching those videos. Some of it is probably my own resentment at my time at UNI
