    Considering how I don't follow his life, his videos, his music, or anything related to him, no. They're still absolutely the only part of his songs worth listening to

    The beats are f---ing hype tbh. & JJ's rapping did get better recently (he's not screaming on tracks anymore)
    Seeing as I've been watching him for 5 years, I've seen how this came together. Yeah, his rapping isn't great, but I wanted to see what people on here thought of him.

    I like him (mainly because I've been a sub since I was like 10-11) and the most recent track released off the EP is actually quite good, but it's not a YouTube so I couldn't put it in OP. I'd put him and #5 or #6 because I don't listen to many artists.
