    By this i mean he sounds noticably different from 3 years ago, much more raspy and raw

    I think i prefer his TPAB/Compton style of flow and voice

    Tpab

    His vocal inflection are a main part to his songs and they are there to compliment the tone of the songs. Gkmc was ok but I didn't like the voices for the most part and his voice was too monotone on s80

    i think he comes across as more marketable with his GKMC voice

    and like when i heard that LA kanye song i knew his verse was a GKMC era verse

    now its got me wondering how much better itd be with his TPAB flow

    I'm fine with all of them but Imma go with TPAB

    My favorite voice is probably on "u", its like the perfect voice for that kind of technical delivery.

    he just seems more unforgiving on TPAB

    you seem like a fan who dosent develop alongside an artist

    you just live in the same year they released their first project

    the mans gotta develop as an artist and that means changing up a few things

    (although i do love hiiipower)

    I have no preference... but I think he does a better job of controlling his voice on To p---- A Butterfly (but probably the mixing helped a bit?)
