OFWGKTA?

So maybe they've already been talked about here on AP... but OFWGKTA (Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All) is a new-ish, eclectic hip hop collective from L.A. and I was just wondering- if you've heard them- what you think of their music? I, being sort of a hip hop fan, kind of like them. they're no Jay-Z or Biggie or even Lupe, but they are so much different than anything out there. Thoughts?

I like them for the simple fact that comapred to a lot of other stuff out there that's popular they're doing their own thing. They're bringin' a different energy to the game, that kinda punky skater type vibe and that's a a bit left of all the thugged out d-boy, playa type ish. So I give em and e for effort in that department. That being said, they aren't the holy grail of hip-hop or anything, Skillwise and beatwise they're good but far from the best I've heard and technically they're not doing anything new. Listen to some old Wu-tang or betta yet some early Gravediggas and other similar stuff to get a gist of what I'm talking about. Of course they put a 21st century spin on it but the similarities are there. I actually know mad underground cats in D.C. that have been doing that style for years. But like I said, I feel them. Plus, they're young so I'm sure their sound will evolve. I'm watchin' to see where they take it.
