I think rap is kind of splintering right now between those who define themselves as lyricist first, and those who make mood music in the form of rap. Casey kind of wavers between both, but is definitely making more mood music.

Likewise, the fanbase is kind of sort of doing the same thing, and on a lot of days I just want to hear some cool sounding shit, same as a I feel when Im listening to Based God, or ASAP. Casey is a great SOUNDING rapper, great voice, i love his drawl, and I think he's only going to get better. I think he also says a lot of mature shit for his age. But he's not trying to wow you on some MF Doom/Rakim type highbrowness, most aren't trying either.
