Those are valid criticisms and he does get lazy on features sometimes (DS2 definitely was one of those). Eh to each their own but i usually end up liking his big pop hits as well as the rapping and beats in general. I like his flow... Subject matter and rhymes vary drastically but it usually sounds good

What is the song thug redid?

Didn't realize this was a rework until just now but pretty sure he's talking about this one

I really like his (40s) beats but I can't stand his delivery or voice. It's very flat and doesn't lock in to any momentum. He raps corny lines about being emotional but I can't feel any pain or vulnerability in his voice.

It was fascinating hearing Young Thug redo his song because Thugger puts immense feeling into his voice, even when he is singing nonsense. Particularly the bits of the song where he is directly referring Drake's flow.

I want to like drake because you guys seem to talk him up a lot and he shows up on every goddamn album, but I just can't get into him.

His verse on DS2 is awful.

You're pretty much 100% correct on all your points here and that's why for the most part I don't like him. Dude's just not very good at rapping. And lots of dudes here talk up lots of poo poo that's garbage, don't let that sway you (tbh dudes talk up lots of good stuff to but w/e).

That said I like him on hooks or doing more singy stuff sometimes. And where I don't think he's a good rapper or have much presence typically, he also generally is neutral and doesn't detract from beats or w/e.

Yeah it's this. This is probably my favourite Thugger song ("is it a parade" over that piano breakdown, come on). Shame the metro thuggin record never materialised but the Hercules song was unremarkable so maybe it is for the best.

I like Drake's DS2 verse quite a bit. "I'm self-made, selfish with my women, self-employed..." sounds cool to me. To each their own I guess.
