As far as grieves goes, this song has a nice instrumental, but the lyrics don't appeal to me at all. The few other songs I've heard from him have been fairly bland as well. I probably won't try to listen to anything else by him.

I can definitely see this. I'm pretty new to hip-hop so I probably fall for the "cool white suburban kids" product easier than others. The first thing I hear in a rap song is the production, and that's probably why this one and the rest of the album stand out to me right away. Maybe it'll wear on me with repeated listens, perhaps not...
