He can spit but he never follows topics (see: Accident Murderer on Nas' "Life Is Good" for a prime example)...and in fact only raps about the same 3-4 topics each time out. Credit to him for making a career out of saying the exact same thing in every single verse for the better part of a decade but he's totally uninteresting to me and the only thing that ever draws me to his music is the beats he rhymes on.
