Atlanta producer Dun Deal remembers when he first met a 16-year-old kid named Jeffrey Williams, now better known the rapper Young Thug. "He was always a cool person; he always dressed weird," says Deal, who helped craft Thug's first true viral hit, "Stoner". "And the way he used to write his music was pretty crazy. He would just draw what he wanted to do on paper. That's how he used to record; he would draw, like, a picture."
What kind of picture? "Weird signs and shapes," Deal says. "He'd be in the booth looking at the paper, and one day I went in there and looked at it and said, 'You didn't write any words down.' He looked at me and said: ‘I don't need no words.'"

the only TRUE way to make REAL hip hop is to write your lyrics down. and you can't type it your phone either. you have to write it on a legal pad. with a sharpie. el-p style

You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

The vast majority of rappers I've heard can't do what he does with flows and melodies. There's plenty of room to make fun of his lyrics though, we can't act like he doesn't say a lot of weird shit.

but this pretty much sums up why we can't understand 99% of his lyrics...
