Flint has its own rap dialect, distinct even from Detroit an hour away: deadpan, conversational, delivered slightly behind the beat as though the rapper is thinking it through as he goes. It sounds almost careless and is extremely difficult to imitate, which is why the handful of artists who do it well have followings out of all proportion to their streaming numbers. A weeknight booking in a big downtown room for one of them is a slightly strange proposition and will produce a crowd that is small, knowledgeable and there on purpose. The jokes land harder live than on record. This is a cluster our catalog barely touches, and it is one of the few in American music right now that is genuinely regional rather than algorithmic.
