    But not as inspiring, motivational and hard-hitting as Eminem's latest single Kings Never Die from the movie Southpaw

    I purchased and listened to t-ts yesterday. I think that it is a really good album and that he did a very good job. I found it to be very enjoyable. I'm not a Logic "stan" just to let you know. Just wanted to add my little 2 cents.

    @Chad Warden it's just kind of an amalgam of imitations of artists he likes. Like, on "I Am the Greatest" he basically recreates an Oddisee beat and raps like he was recording an IYRTITL reference track for Drake. The first song he basically splices two 808s beats together. One song he jacks a beat from Days Before Rodeo (lol). Young Jesus sounds like any generic "bring back the 90s" rapper. "Upgrade" sounds like he tried to utilize the pre-GKMC Kendrick sound for himself. He kinda just raps like he's doing his best J. Cole impression at a lot of points.

    It's not horrible music. I understand why someone would like it. But there's very little that's original about it. I think he's most interesting when does the sing-song stuff.

    I like Travis Scott even though he rips off Drake & Kanye.

    Antidote is a good example of influence, not biting. If bc is correct (idk i haven't listened) straight up recreating someone else's beat is what I'd call being on the biting end of the spectrum

    On Dis Side is a great song but bites Drake heavy.

    Logic had the rights of the beat before Travis

    Yeah but most of the og Travis fans like him because he did his own thing like with half of owl Pharaoh, and had that Western trap sound on dbr, and has moments of creativity on rodeo. Him doing other people's styles is kind of only accepted because he does so much fresh s---, and tbh he killed sremm at their own s--- with antidote

    That's influence bcuz he's not straight jacking lines and beats, is what I'm saying. Plus, not everything about the song is drake influenced, drake never has that Western vibe that's all Travis and he uses distortion more. I know I'm arguing minor details and overall it is "Travis Scott as drake" but I'm js there's a difference between singing like someone for half a song and straight up remaking their beat
