When it comes to young kids getting in the game, they often go in one of two ways. Either they go completely against the canon, throwing technical ability out the window for vocal experimentation, or they worship the golden age, valuing lyrical skill above everything. Awol$ falls pretty squarely in the second category, to the point that it's hard to believe he's only 17 years old.
With that being said, his furious double time sounds completely at home on modern production, as is evidenced by his new freestyle over Bobby Shmurda's "Bobby Bitch". This puts him in a similar lane as someone like Meek Mill, whose appeal is wide enough to bring in fans of all different factions of rap.
Quotable Lyrics:
Teachers used to say I won't be shit
Pulled up to my graduation
In a brand new foreign whip
Bitch, I'm lit
Ain't no rapper fuckin' with me line for line
Used to ride the bench
But now I'm ballin' with my starting 5
Niggas say I fell off 'cause I was chasing dollar signs
The rappers in my caliber retired or they probably died
I Ain't Bobby Bitch (Freestyle)
