philly rappers

meek mill has been my favorite philly rapper (and possibly one of my top 5 of all rappers) ever since he came out with the flamers trilogy.  howerver now that he's been signed to maybach i feel like he's lost his touch a little bit. jahlil beats and meek mill are fire together and i just heard a new song called ham music that actually bored me....i never thought that was possible with meek mill spitting over a jahlil beats track but it did.  i can't describe into words how disappointed i am that fame may have altered meek's ability to create a hard track every time.  i find him harder to listen to now.  he received a lot of critique over the way he rapped in his mixtapes because he tended to yell, but i actually like that more than the way he's spitting now.  now i just find that i'm waiting for the song to be over and i feel like he's rapping about the same things over and over again.  talkin about some amount of money on his neck is different than another amount of money on his wrist...it's the same line in different songs and it's just plain boring.   below i have the track i just listened to (that i didn't love) and a track from flamers 2 (my favorite meek mill mixtape).  you decide which is better.

one more thing before i go.  a while back, right when wiz khalifa released his mixtape cabin fever, i was saying how i felt wiz fell off his game a little.  i take that back.  fame didn't change him i just needed to adjust to the new style of music he was putting out.  i think wiz finally found his niche in the music industry and i applaud him.  i got out and bought rolling papers (his new album) and i love it.  it's on repeat in my car.  that being said there's a chance i need to adjust to meek mill's new style as well, but we'll have to wait and see.  til then i'll just keep playing mixtapes.
