Facts bro

[@TheGuitarislove]

Jid is a musician not just a rapper. That’s why he’s above his peers

[@debodatta7398]

You must not know anything about Little Dragon if you think he is stepping outside of his culture? considering how huge of an influence American r&b groups like De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest not to mention the massive influence Alice Coltrane has on Little Dragons music.

[@MentalStillness]

I agree but a lot of rap Artists like Artists from various genres. Phil Collins did a song with Bone Thugs N Harmony, Dmx had a song called I Can Feel It, Big Boi is a big fan of Kate Bush, Jayz did a collab album with Linkin Park it's actually nothing new and I encourage people to listen to different genres. Little Dragon is dope
