2 Chainz
It'z 2 CHAINZ! I'm doing my 2 Chainz impression via text. I hope you're picking up what I'm throwin' down. 2 Chainz is the light, not at the end of the tunnel, but the light IN the tunnel. What I mean by that is- in a world of crappy, mumbly, hook-driven rap music- 2 Chainz is the true prophet keeping the legacy of G-funk, conscious rap, & wherever we were headed next... that next chapter of rap... where rap should have headed after the late 90's and early aughts- not the crap we hear on the rap radio stations today or what is poppin' on Soundcloud. 2 Chainz is recognized as an influential player in the southern hip-hop scene. He was a part of the duo Playaz Circle, who were signed to Ludacris' label Disturbing Tha Peace (not a bad sign of confidence from a fellow Atlanta legend). He busted solo and signed to Def Jam Records in 2012. His debut album, Based On A T.R.U. Story threw him into the mainstream limelight with certifited hits like "Birthday Song" & "No Lie". I've always enjoyed 2's delivery & flow. His word play & vocabulary is bar none. He never made below a C in high school. Snoop Dogg summed it up best when he was interviewing 2 Chainz & said, "That's probably why your rhymes are so sustaining as far as the intellect of your rhymes. You know what I'm sayin'? 'Cuz a lot of mother fuckers, when they rap, they rap ABC shit- don't really know what it means. Your shit got a long understanding to it & it crosses over with everybody." So, besides the fact that he has Luda and Snoop's approval & besides the fact he hosts a show called "Most Expensivest", which constantly cracks me up, he is a certified G- I mean... G.R.- a great rapper. I really hopped on board with 2 Chainz when he released his fourth album in 2017, Pretty Girls Like Trap Music. You know how certain songs hit you right away? Certified classic upon first hearing? That was his song "It's A Vibe" for me. I knew the rap game was in good hands when I heard this song. Going back to how 2 Chainz is carrying the torch from where we left off in the late 90's and early aughts- I heard "It's A Vibe" and knew 2 Chainz was the man & I had to quit sleeping on him- time to become a legit fan. So I am... & that's why I'm writing this... It'z...
