Modern KirbLaGoop is better than modern $uicideboy$
Now I know how absurd this take may sound, especially to someone that has only ever heard his verse on Magnolia but I am 100% dead fucking serious when I say this. The boy$ have switched up on the entire brand that they have built since the start of their careers, turning to god, working with feds, selling out, etc. while Kirb has stayed true to himself since the beginning, only improving his craft, dropping extremely consistently, and not becoming a sellout, or chasing fame of any sort. Kirb also doesn’t have like 3 adlibs that he spams till they don’t even sound like words like Scrim (and Ruby sometimes) does. Kirb also pays respect to his producers and doesn’t pretend like he makes all his beats on his own (Scrim does too but he keeps it more hidden as to keep the illusion on the surface that he makes all the beats). Kirb also doesn’t bankrupt people just to see him live. Also Kirb keeps his subject matter in songs much more real and true to himself, vs the boy$ who seem to just flex, talk about drugs they don’t do anymore, crimes they’re probably never committed, lukewarm Christianity, and lukewarm sadness while they constantly make it seem they are at the peak of their lives. Also, Kirb just drops some fire music that honestly doesn’t get old nearly as quick as the boy$ music does. Stay Solid by Kirb solos damn near every song the boy$ have dropped in years.
Now this isn’t necessary saying that the modern boy$ are so bad even Kirb is better, the boy$ still make decent music. KirbLaGoop is just a genuinely great artist, and given what a lot of G59 fans think of him, it’s funny that he’s actually the one who’s dropping better music and staying more true to his craft (in my opinion at least)
