![]() ![]() Rock strikes me as a solid enough rapper that he could handle doing ALL the vocals if he wanted to, but since he’s hella connected in the Yay he doesn’t have to hold all the weight himself. He’s even portraying his music as “crossover” in a whole different way than we usually associate with the word: “ It’s kind of hard when you’re theorizin with the thugs/Half my niggaz call me cuz, half my niggaz call my blood/Nobody gave me s**t I got my mind up out the mud/I started super slappin got my mind up out the clubs”. Despite not being known for his bars he quickly establishes himself as a spitter over his own booming bass and crashing cymbals, adding a nice layer of distortion to his own vocal mix while showing (forgivable) similarity to E-40 in terms of slanguage and flow. Diamond D, Large Professor and another Rock named Pete are among the few who come to mind. There aren’t too many other famous rap producers who could get away with this. ![]()
