It used to be I thought Roc was aight, but his bars were too basic for my taste up until after he battled surf. Maybe it's just me but I always felt after he linked with surf, something just clicked with dude.. he just got "it" now and he made a fan out of me real quick. I still wouldn't say his pen game is crazy but when he give you bars like that seat belt buckle up line, I can't knock him.
I've always been technical minded with rap, I want to hear those double/triple entendres, word play, set ups etc but i always hated battle rappers that did all of that with no street element that i can feel. Surf is the embodiment of that best of both worlds that I look for.. & why he's my personal favorite. Also...
