Nas on "Big things" is the exact same situation for when East Coast rappers were trying to ride those slow Down South beats.

It's not a knock at all, but a lot of these more recent Southern rappers literally ONLY flow to 65 BPM songs...so they gotta switch their whole style up to flow on faster beats. With Flocka, I didn't feel like he was wack at all, the delivery just didn't feel all the way natural to me. It was actually more about the delivery than the flow on here...with Chainz and Juicy, along with others, the flow itself feels more choppy. The "It ain't hard to tell" part stands out most to me with this...."keep pre-vail-ING" and a few other bars.
