I feel like this dude forreal reached an equilibrium of swag (ugh at that word) and lyricism. He's dropped hella dope projects (The Fly 2, The Crates, The Cure 2) full of air-tight tongue twisting flows.

And on the real....I hate lyrical niggas in the 2000's, they either sound corny or bitter about rapping.

Willie don't even sound hungry when he raps, he sounds fed and cozy. Like he don't even fuck with this rap shit but he's generous enough to bless our ears. You can feel the Wu-Tang (Gza/Meth/Raekwon) influence in his music. His older brother was a Wu-tang affiliate so maybe that's it?

I'm trailing off. Lemme hit you with some essential Willie joints.

Fly Union ft. Willie the Kid - Great

Fly Union is actually a great group with 2 producers/singers and a rapper. Mid-west type shit.
