this i'm gonna have to go ahead and give my personal nod to ferre
just for the simple fact that he has managed to build upon the greatness
of the 80s and 90s generation and make it fresh.
his influences are obvious (madilu, franco, etc)

now i prefer QDT but it's not a long shot decision. fally has more dudes on his album but that's because ferre takes a safer route and
it sounds better. fally takes risks and it sometimes sucks. that
chaise electrique shit isn't the worst shit in the world but i dn't
like it lol and his singers just aren't as interesting as ferre's
to me. fally can easily carry an album himself but when he gets
singers none of them come even close to his singing you wonder why he
even got them ont he record. ferre on the other hand has some superb
vocals on his own (sometimes switching his singing style within a
song as evidenced on karmasutra) his singers all sound like they should have they own shit popping. they're intresting and polished.

my favorite song from either album have no video for them so i will share them here. these are the songs that really made me go 'wow ok
i see what you're doing there' lol

FALLY IPUPA - 5eme RACE

FERRE GOLA - JE T'ATTEND

in the end i applaud what they're both doing but the next artists i'm about to start talking about REALLY excite me in a whole other way.
i'll get into that in af ew.
