Ok good <3
It's interesting to see someone who puts 0 effort into lyricism and focuses only on his 'flow' gets favorable critical reception.
Thug is essentially a modern day scatman, using nice sounding gibberish in lieu of lyrics.

>i can't understand what he is saying so he is saying nothing

Take a stroll through his tracks on genius.
Find a single verse with original, interesting, creative wordplay.
I really like rich homie quan but he takes a while to understand what he's saying

You're looking for the wrong things on Thug's music. His lyrical style stands out in a number of ways; the most obvious is his ear for figurative language. Thug’s similes often build upon familiar imagery, but move in unexpected directions. On “Check,” he opens rapping about a “Mink coat with the rolls like a Shar Pei”; later on, he raps, “All my niggas, they hard, call them beetles.” These aren’t punchlines intended to get rap fans doubling over laughing (although they can be funny in their unpredictability). Thug seems more interested in an original and idiosyncratic approach to imagery, in discovering pathways in language that haven’t already been heavily traveled.
In this, Young Thug’s lyrical approach is closer to a rapper like Raekwon than it is Lil Wayne, with whom Thug is frequently compared through some fault of his own. But any close reading of his lyrics suggest comparisons between The Barter 6 and Wayne’s Carter series are a total misdirection. It’s something Thug jokes about while trolling homophobic listeners on “Halftime”: “I might eat it, I might lick it, but I swear i’ll never bite ‘em!” Of course, Wayne shaped Thug’s approach to rapping, and still resides within his musical D.N.A. But where Wayne shredded his vocals against hip-hop’s formal constraints, Thug is a synthesist, a rapper of control, an artist in the process of reassembly.
The playfulness of his poetics aside, Thug’s rapping on The Barter VI is more heavily autobiographical than your typical ATL hitmaker. And he’s living an emotional cocktail, his moment of triumph flooded with tense anxiety. These moods crash and blur on songs like “Od,” an oath of loyalty to friends and family set off by the knife’s-edge recklessness of its opening lines: “I think I’m ODing on drugs / I just started a fight inside the club.” Or “Numbers,” a mournful, paranoiac song of success. Violence never feels far from its surface.
HiTUNES is gonna be AOTD
