He's my favorite rapper of all time.
He's also my least consistent rapper I've ever heard.
Anyone else feel this way?

Aesop Rock is awesome. What do you mean by "least consistent?"

He has some great songs and he has some terrible ones. I used to love him but can't really stomach his style anymore.

I saw him live 2 years ago and sounded great.

What do you think I meant, jabroni?
He's got an extremely strange stream of consciousness style that just works well for some songs and not as well for others. His snarling accent comes off to me as incredibly sarcastic and cynical, which might have something to do with it.
He's got a ton of good ones and a ton of bad ones, and the biggest problem is I have no idea if the next track will be worthwhile.
For every great track like "Mars Attacks," there's an awful one, like "We're Famous." For every "Daylight," there's a "Maintenance."

I have great respect for him because he doesn't constantly sing about Booty, Bling and Thuglife.

Excuse me, The Rock.
He's also my least consistent rapper I've ever heard.
I wasn't exactly sure what you meant because "my least consistent rapper" makes no sense unless you've got a collection of rappers in your attic or some shit.

I love Aesop Rock. Every time he puts out an album he gets me into the other rappers who guest on his stuff.
HE'S LIKE A GATEWAY DRUG.
