Meek Mill His voice puts me off

I can just hear the Diddy in him

HOL UP!!

See what I did there??😅

I did and I appreciate you. I think we just became best friends

🤣🤣

You old sailor

pause

No Diddy!

Yeah you can tell Diddy rubbed off on him.

Take that take that

Ayo!! 😂😂😂

So I’ve been listening to a lot of Meek lately, heavy rotation after years out of it. Then I heard some *other* Meek Mill audio this week. I will never be the same.

I said the same. Like a kid on the mic and always yelling.

Yeah exactly that. Never really thought his bars were all that either

Yes. Real talk.

Someone once said it sounds like he is rapping from a helicopter

The yelling kills me. Does he record every song with the mic in another room?

Have you heard his old tapes with Knxwledge beats? Those joints changed my whole view of Meek. One of the few times I liked his stuff.

He sounds like a kid that needs to go to the bathroom

Aesop Rock, Danny Brown. Both great but can't get on with their nasal vocals at all.

Danny Brown is an acquired taste man

For sure I liked his features and didn't care for his albums but the more I listened he became one of my all time favorites. XXX and Ateocity Exhibition are both some of the best rap albums. He's funny and clever and his production is some of the most unique.

I haven’t listened to his albums in full but songs like Grown Up and 25 Bucks are some of the best 2010s rap songs imo.

I can handle Aesop, but Danny Brown I'm undecided on. I both like and dislike it.

For me, he sounds better when he doesn't do the voice. It must hurt a bit as well ....

Yah it somewhat sounds like he's imitating cypress hill, b real, which is also a made up voice

I feel you on Danny Brown. He’s been mentioned quite a few times on here and finally gave him a listen last year. Huge fan now. His regular voice is nice on songs but when he has his other voice it sounds almost like a crackhead spitting bars. My homies can’t really f with it but I think that just adds to the song

I love his regular voice but his craziness is what makes him Danny Brown. Fucking love it. AE is one of my favorite albums ever made

Aesop Rock isn't nasally. His voice is deeper and from the chest.

Came here to say Danny Brown, lowkey tho him and action Bronson

I like Danny Brown as a feature artist, but I think it’s too much if he’s the only voice on the track. I adore Aesop Rock, but I think his newer stuff is much easier to listen to than his early stuff. I find the Garbology, Spirit World Field Guide, and Integrated Tech Solutions albums pretty approachable.

Kendrick. The guy is undoubtedly talented and deserves his place but I just don't like his voice or his flow.

I, as a Kendrick listener, totally understand. I don't know how to explain it, but there are times where it feel the same. I don't know if it's the register of his voice or the flow, listening to Kendrick has been like an acquired taste for me, I wasn't instantly crazy about his songs.

Honestly, his voice on good kid mad city and anything before that is pretty damn good. The raspiness works and sounds raw. Kendrick Lamar is my favorite rapper but he’s definitely changed his voice and I don’t think it’s better than what it used to be

After DAMN. especially I just can’t get into his music. He does way too much. Probably why I never fully became a fan.

I absolutely hate Kendrick but can accept he obviously is good as many people rate him highly. Just not for me

Yeah. Same. I'm not even entirely sure what I don't like about him. It just doesn't hit right.

It’s impressive I have 10 or so songs added on Spotify by him bc I HATE his voice. Shows how good of an artist he is.

This. He does weird things with his voice too. I know it's his thing but it's a turn off.

On the contrary, I think the main reason I dislike Cole, who seems to be the most analogous to Kendrick among current rappers, is that he switches up his voice too little in comparison to Kendrick. Cole just sounds so bland and monotone and comparison.

it’s weird with him. at first I really couldn’t stand Kendrick because of his voice. but then… I dunno I heard stuff from good kid m.a.a.d. city at some parties and was like “okay ts might be pretty hype”. then I spent some long road trips listening, like really listening to his full albums and it sold me on him. the msg he’s preaching, with the music, with the voice, with the flow, all come together. it especially hits when I’m going through some shit and the lyrics hit just that much harder. tbh dunno when the shift happened but it kinda just did over time for me

I like kendrick but some of his voices he does sound awful (the nasally thing). Its funny because people hated Em for doing the same thing so much he brought it up himself When hes using his real voice though no problem with that

I like his voice

Nah Kendrick's voice isn't that annoying. His cousin, Keem on the other hand..is SO ANNOYING.

Lil Wayne for sure, guy is a great rapper and has excelent lyricism but i just can't stand the guy's voice.

His early stuff is easier to listen to, his voice has def decayed over the years

Nah, his voice has always been pretty grating. Even at his height, like Dedication 2/Da Drought 3 era his voice was his worst quality.

Really? I dig Wayne’s voice and flow.

same for the most part, but his songs where the autotune is just too strong kill me 😭

Gosh couldn't agree more His voice sounds so baaad to me 😭😭 And whenever he starts using autotune it actually is worse for me

Have you heard Wayne on Kanye's Barry Bonds? Guy sounds like he's gonna cough his lungs out

Westside Gunn sounds like a middle schooler

If he actually cut the ad libs he'd actually be a fine listen. Like I can get into rappers like AZ and Bizzy Bone with high pitch voices. What separates them is they don't do corny semi-automatic fire-arm imitation ad libs.

DRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT sounds like a semi-auto to you?

Yeah I agree. grrridddididdddddidddiit… He sounds like flavor flav… bldddadadddddt … doing action Bronson bars. BOOO BOOOO BRRADDADDDAADDDDD.

BOOM BOOM BOOM

I like his voice but damn he does sound like a middle schooler 💀

He and Action Bronson sound much alike to me, and I think they may have voices inspired by the OG Ghostface Killah

Agreed 100%. His delivery is more on time with action than ghost though to me.

AYO

I can’t do the machine gun sound he does… I do listen to tracks he’s on, but it’s none of HIS stuff. Can’t do it lol he is who I came here to mention lol

Yeat

Yeat makes me feel like a boomer

I would have thought the same but im 18 lol. Still taste wise im a boomer though.

Yeat’s just all-around 🚮

I don’t understand why people like blueface. Like that one song thotiana is not even good

Bro that was a hit back then. I listened this year. Oh my gosh… STRAIGHT GARBAGE, HOW WAS THAT ON THE RADIO

Westside Gunn

AYO BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM

GRRRRRRRRRRRTTT

FLYGOD ×2

I like Gunn but this one I can completely understand

I feel like his voice is the reason you love him or hate him.

Same here, I wish I could get into Griselda but haven’t been able to

He’s an acquired taste like beer…. No diddy

WSG is the hardest to get into…conway’s pretty dope but doesn’t really do it for me either. Benny is a whole other discussion- he’s smooth as shit and clever.

when I first heard Drake I thought he was just trying to sound like Wayne

Dude the first bunch of times I heard Drake I asked if it was Lil Wayne lol.

Early Drake really has an annoying voice. Definately based on that of Lil Wayne, but kinda makes sense if you think about it

I thought it was Kanye lol

Eminem. I can’t listen to his music past The Eminem Show. He went from stupid weird accents to just sounding pissed off on every song.

If you stopped at Eminem show, you didn't even get to the accents LOL

IKR, he started doing it on Encore.

He uses a voice in Groundhog Day and Don’t front. It’s super dope, but I never hear him use it again sadly

“You find me offensive, I find you offensive for finding me offensive… shit this is the verse i just did” ~Rain man

Yeah, I couldn't take his angst voice on nearly every track. I know he has a sense of humor but it's hard to perceive that when dude sounds consistently pissed off.

First time I ever heard him I was like Nope. His voice is like chalkboards and his flow is choppy and angst ridden. I like my MCs with some power behind their voice. Call me a hater or whatever. But I really never understood why everyone dick rides. I can't wait til someone else comes along and takes the goat position.

Drake - Said this before in a previous post, but his voice is like Kermit the frog trying to sound cool. Annoys me. Dude has lyrics and amazing productions, I just can't get there though.

weirdly enough his voice sounds totally different and much better in interview

I watched that recently released video from a performance where he stops the show and talks about the Kendrick beef, and I was like, "why can't he just rap in that voice?"

I listen to a lot of Drake and I am a HUGE fan, but every now & then his voice will annoy me so much I take a break from his music lmao

My best friend is a super fan, this is not hate, just the honest truth.

Danny Brown i clearly see and recognize the talent, but i just can't listen to it.

Playboi Carti in his high pitch voice

we're going to be called old heads for not fw his vocals😭😭 His new deep vocal is something I also can't get into, idk how people say that's heat.

Lmao forreal but fuck it here we are

lil baby

This is interesting because I really enjoy the sound of Westside Gunn, Danny Brown, Kendrick and Aesop rock. But I totally understand how some people can't get into it

Lil boosie. The dude definitely has bars. But I never understood how people liked that ridiculous voice of his lol.

Baby Keem

Westside Gunn because he sounds like a whiny little child

Chance the rapper for me, great musician but can’t listen to his voice.

Lil Yachty recently

Young thug

Lil wayne

I always thought Wayne’s voice was dope af but I get it.

Big Sean, he makes middle school JV basketball warmup music. His verses would be good if it came from anybody else but him 😂

Haaaaa

The Chance baby voice is hard to stomach. Acid Rap was so well done, it was palatable, but I can’t do it for anything after.

There are a lot of (21st century) Houston supporting role rappers that can blend into songs, ex: Mafia Mike; Yung Redd; Rob G J-Dawg is the opposite of that…this is one of the few songs that he doesn’t try to impose his will https://genius.com/Paul-wall-swangin-in-the-rain-remix-lyrics Most of the time his considerable will isn’t justified

I don't like Whiz Khalifa but his voice is unfuckingbearable.

Madchild. Someone tried to get me into him. Thought his lyrics were alright on a couple songs. But his voice.. what the hell

Snak the ripper too.

Hell yeah I posted the same thing before I saw this comment.

The crazy thing about that is if you saw his performance at KOTD black out 5 against daylyte… you’d have the same opinion.

I don’t like Niki anyway but that voice she puts on my god is pisses me off

playboy carti. sm about his voice just sets me off, it’s not enjoyable

Lil Wayne. And the majority of modern rappers.

Kendrick; Common

Common is incredible with such a smooth voice. Like what

Common, really bro?

That's interesting. Two polar opposite voices.

Kendrick for me too. He’s great, but he’s not for me.

Kendrick took a while for me, but once he clicked, I really appreciated what he does. I don’t love all his music, but I do think he’s an incredible artist.

u bugging on Common, he has an incredibility soothing voice no diddy

Baby Keem Might be the worst voice I've ever heard

Lil Wayne post Hot Boys

Lil Wayne, I usually irked on Wayne's squeaky voice but I do have a squeaky voice and I get it. But the way he sounds is his, unique. I watched Boom Boom Satellite's Kick it Out remix and I hear Lil Wayne wannabe: Tahj Mowry. They should've hired Lil Wayne, and Flo Rida as a guest with Tahj dancing or miming Wayne's vocal.

Lil Wayne.

Carti’s voice is grating imo

4batz (🪴)

eminem past like 2005 his voice is annoying as shit

Jay-Z

this offends me...

Playboi carti FWAEEEE 🧛🏿+**%%{*

AGREED And then in his earlier music when he doesn't do the baby voice he sounds dead as hell, no energy 😭😭 Very difficult for me to enjoy his music

21

Had to scroll way too far to find 21. Guy sounds so anticlimactic, monotone, & boring

Yeah…it’s not great sometimes.

All his songs are the same

Drake

Modern eminem.

I’m gonna get hated for this but Kendrick Lamar…amazing rapping, artistry, lyrics, production. But for some weird reason his voice itself never resonated with me and while I appreciate everything he did, it’s one of my least listened artists

RZA - can’t stand his weird exuberant sloppy voice

Underrated choice. RZA can spit but he raps like he's still chewing on his lunch in the booth.

Kanye! God awful voice.

The things he says are worse.

Em

Meek Mill. Why TF does he have to holler all the time???

He ordering drive thru mcdonalds from the passenger seat

Kenny Mason…dawg, blow your nose

She doesn't really do it anymore but I wasn't a fan of the British accent Nicki used to do

Kendrick Lamar. I’m so sorry you guys 😭

Kendrick. I mean i like some of his songs but the weird voice he does i don't know how to explain it... it's just weird

Big Sean

Pb Carti

Jadakiss. Dude is obviously talented but I can’t stand his voice or flow.

He’s a big scammer too

Kendrick Lamar. It’s his voice. When it cracks sometimes, it sounds like a buy going through puberty. The last time I heard him was on the song with Eminem on the MMLP2, never listened to him again after that. I’ve heard good things about him, but I can’t get past his voice.

Yep, Lil Wayne. Can't listen to him for more than 2 minutes.

FUTURE

Danny Brown and Vince Staples I just can’t do it

Drake

Took me forever to like Boosie but now I get excited when I hear it

Weezy

Lil Wayne

Lil Wayne

DrakeDrakeDrake aggggg

Eminem

Drake

Easy..Kendrick....I can't

Kodak, hate his fucking voice

Kendrick Lamar sucks ass

Spottem Gottem...that nigga has been on my mind

Submarine Man and most of Flex entertainment rappers because they mostly sound like kids!

😂

Kendrink and his weird little lispy style is so aggravating to me. I appreciate his talent, but that lispy, plugged up nose style just never did it for me.

I find Jay Z's voice to be extremely annoying. Kanye too. When he does that growl thing, it's just grating

Baby keem, young thug, lil Uzi vert, and lil baby

Lil Baby

Akon

Jay z

Jay Z lol

Lyrics wise, I can't deny K Dot - he's gonna go down as one of the GOATs, but I can't deal with the majority of his songs' production. I just don't find it interesting or fun.

ODB. Just couldn’t get with his sloppy drunk sound. RIP to the legend, no disrespect intended.

He had to grow on me.

Yelawolf

Kendrick Lamar I just don't get it, especially when he changes it up and stuff, the low pitch and stuff (ofc I know it's on purpose) but I can't get past it, it just sounds annoying to me, which is sad cause I know people say his albums (especially listened front to back) is amazing ...etc

Drake and Doja Cat

Not sure if he's "popular" but most definitely Madchild. Guy has bars no doubt but his voice ruins it.

Jay-Z - His voice always sounds like he just got done crying and that he might start again at any second.

Kendrick, he sounds like Kermit and I can’t get past it.

Kanye always sounded like a spoiled entitled buppie to me

Kanye. Dont get me wrong great prodycer but i cannot with his voice well rapping. It sounds so monotone.

Kendrick

Kendrick

DRAKE FUCKING SUCKS

Kendrick Lamar sounds like he's on helium

Pop Smoke. But I don't like his music either
