I can't believe I'm posting about Jaden Smith, but this shit is pretty dope. It kinda reminds me of old tribe. I like that this kid is not sticking to the script and instead is actually doing some real hip hop.

But theres a certain poserness to his rhyming that I cant just shake. The song is enjoyable if I tune out what hes actually saying and for a 14 year old hes progressing pretty quickly. I just dont have much hope that hell ever have something interesting to say.

^Perfect summary of my thoughts. Bc it's definitely different and the beat is super fresh. And i kinda like the feel of the video. But it's this little kid who's voice sounds like it should be on Nickelodeon or sth (or Degrassi ahem ahem).
But meh, let him do his thing. i'll just get the instrumental, lol.
