I have no interest in hip hop, but I imagine you come away from hearing something like that and you at least know what the guy was rapping about. Enzo was just..rhyming words together and it didn’t mean anything.
Hey, I couldn’t do it, but then I’m not on a world famous hip hop station saying I’m going to be one of the biggest rappers of all time. I’d imagine that was Kanye arrogance mixed with his own heel persona, but damn you got to come out with something better than that if you’re claiming to “change the game”.

why do the terrible ones always believe in themselves the most? Now I want to hear a rap by pre-Biff-punching George McFly.

The title says hot fire, but after watching that all I got was hypothermia.

More of a metal guy, but I do love me some classic 90's hip hop too, and as was already said. He wasn't rapping about anything. He was just rhyming words together.

Enzo: You blaze trees, I break knees Your frog splash is trash, you ain't got what it takes, please!
I'd have done the whole "so and so is the reason Teddy Long got run down!" part of the rap, but I don't remember how it goes.

Still can't decide if he's better or worse than Cena, but this is not my area of expertise

Considering his speaking voice I was kinda expecting his style to be a little stronger rather than sounding kinda whiney/wheezy. The actual lyrical content sounds like something someone would just make up off the top of their head when pretending to be a rapper so if that was written before hand and is the best he's got. Whew.

1-2-3-4 2-2-3-4 Dude needs to learn how to count bars and find a beat. My exact thoughts. He was on that Eminem off-beat shit.

Still can't decide if he's better or worse than Cena, but this is not my area of expertise Cena is far better, but Cena came from an actual underground hip-hop background in Boston at a time when that scene was thriving. You can find Cena guest verses on singles from 2003-2005 that WWE never promoted, totally done on his own through a love of the genre/culture. He was forward thinking enough to actually involves the producers and MCs of that world in his music projects, so regardless of taste, there's nothing inauthentic or unpolished about. Enzo's sounds like someone who has always liked rap and just started rapping - which is fine to a degree as we've all started at some point sounding like Enzo - be we were doing those types of struggle-rhymes in our bathroom mirrors or in our cars as we were honing our craft before we actually showed anyone. Enzo jumping into the deepest of deep ends without the slightest of ability to doggy-paddle - or even float - is suuuuuch a bad look that's going to haunt him if he ever tries to shake it. You can hear how chopped and punched in the vocals are on "Sawft is a Sin," but most of us gave it a pass as it was never meant to be a serious hip-hop track but a catchy entrance that was enough of a reasonable facsimile. If Enzo's really about to drop a project, I pity that poor engineer so much.

Not a popular music conoisseur or anything but yeah that was bad. He just strung a bunch of rhyming words together but there was nothing really else to it. No conviction or anything just a guy jabbering on.

These were those "man I'm better than everybody else, I gotta show em, lemme buy a mic from Best Buy and let my homie make me a beat and I can release this track tonight" type of rhymes. People don't get that it takes time and hard work to figure out how to stitch words together. You can't just put multis after multis and expect people to enjoy it, some of that doesn't sound good.
