Russ is not as good as some of the fans are saying he is. In reality, there are a lot of people better than him at what he does. It seems like people just want to overrate him after a couple of good showings from him. Yea he had a couple of good songs including "Losing Control" and "What they want" along with my favorite, "The Flute Song", but his albums as a whole are unremarkable. His style of rapping is described as "melodic" but in reality, he makes mediocre hip hop/pop hybrid songs with no real substance or message behind them. Some of y'all might not even know who this is but I had to get this off my chest cause my friend d-rides this dude and swears he's on the same level as Jermaine Cole and Ye.
