It's hard to describe over the internet but if you can imagine how that sounds, the lyrics obviously aren't his but they fit his rhyming scheme.

His flow is up there with anyone's, to say it's messy is simply not true. It might be these days but 1998-2002ish it was on point.
You can slate him for regurgitating the same tired jokes over and over and I agree with you he's cringeworthy when he tries to be 'deep' but he is one of the greatest at rhyming. Whether you like his content or not that is one of the factors of a good MC.
I see what you're saying with the over here/there bit. He does that on **** on You but it's hardly a criticism.
