No, they are actually that good.

>It sounds like eminem to me, but with less skill...


1) Having less skill than Eminem is not a criticism
at all

2) If you think these kids are not nice on the mic,
you're not listening

2) Eminem is from a different era, when impressing
people with cutesy wordplay and shit was the thing
to do. Its pretty clear that the Odd Future camp
can spit their ass off....the point of their music,
however, is not to have you in awe of the syllable
pattern.

Its a high energy show. Of course the first dude was yelling.
The 2nd dude was change-of-pace, with haunting higher pitched
voice inflection to contrast Tyler's harshness

You act like you've never been to a show before

It worked perfectly

Actually, underground rappers who do weird shit are notoriously
shitty performers, because that kind of music usually doesn't
translate well live

The Kids have stage presence and have inserted a PUNK FEEL
into their music in an effective way

It works
