Discography Albums Unknown Memory (2014) EPs Unknown Death 2002 (2013) Lavender (2013) Here are 4 songs for those of you who are more into Pop What do you think of Arizona Tea Company giving free bottles of their product because of Lean's image? .

comeintomybedroom 8,656 Posted January 20, 2015 Kyoto and Marble Phone are the only songs I like I tried to like him, listened to his album twice and his mixtape once, but it just all seemed so bland and all blurred together. I think his aesthetic is what his fans are attracted to. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think his aesthetic is what his fans are attracted to. I understand completely, I still can't believe i like his songs. He's so out of norm for me, with his slurred speech and psychedelic instrumentals, I was creep out, but I just needed to hear more. His image has definitely played a roll in his uprising..the whole bucket hat, Arizona tea, deppression, Seapunk visuals. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
782anonymous 220 Posted January 20, 2015 He has no talent. I like three of his songs because of the beats. His producers are talented. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He certainly does have potential to rap like a "mainstream" one would. He def owes Yung Gud and Yung Sherman his life haha Ugh. The love of my life. Heal me in a million ways, shawty. He is the Swedish light saber savior ha 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He def owes Yung Gud and Yung Sherman his life haha His lyrics are intentionally garbage, so I can't tell if he's capable of writing anything good. He has one of the worst flows I have ever heard from a recording artist. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has one of the worst flows I have ever heard from a recording artist. Yeah, Some of his lyrics make me go . But you gotta remeber that he's just doing it as a joke/for fun...something that now has spiraled him to "fame". I know he has potential, but then people will call him a sellout 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
