honestly, I listen to Jarren Benton more than anybody else on FV.  Freebasing with kevin bacon, Huffing glue with hasselhoff, and his Beatgods mixtape gets more rotation in my iPod than Hopsin does (considering Hop only has Gazing at the moonlight and RAW).   

Dizzy sucks IMO, the best weed/lifestyle rapper is Curren$y IMO.

SwizZz, I like a FEW (only like 1 or 2) of his songs, but nothing that's ever on repeat. 

DJ Hoppa has a mixtape called "Sticks and stems" but i could care less.

Hopsin is the only FV artist i listen to. Out of the rest of them, Swizzz is trash, what ive heard from Dizzy is repetitive but decent I guess, and I've only heard a few Jarren Benton songs and I didn't like any of them.

I like Dizzy Wright because he can talk about more than just weed, some of his deeper shit is really good. But I do skip most of his smoking songs, although some of them are decent/listenable. Didn't like his mixtape though, but I did like the album. Still listen to Hop but I wish we'd actually get some more music from him. I do have to laugh though when people say "If Hop didn't talk about shitty rappers he wouldn't have much to talk about" it's slightly true, even though he can do SO much more. SwizZz sucks on solo shit 'n he's only had a few decent guest features imo. Never really cared for Jarren Benton and his live performance didn't really convince me either, he just kinda jumped around 'n yelled 'n tried to have the crowd finish his lines when no one knew them lol. I met Dizzy, Hop, Hoppa, Dame and Benton at a meet 'n greet 'n they were all cool, Hopsin is funny as hell. Dizzy and Hopsin both have great live shows for anyone who hasn't seen them live yet. Hopsin is hype as fuck, he crowd surfed, walked on the crowd, brought people up on stage to do SwizZz's verse for How You Like Me Now since he wasn't there, great experience. I understand why some people don't like any of them though, I only listen to about half of FV atm.

my opinion will always lean towards a more "crazy" rap artist. 

 

I'm a big fan of Lynch which he's recently known for his storytelling trilogy (even though I don't Lynch is that great at storytelling, LOL huh) 

 

Jarren's style to me is CRAZY storytelling and comedy with a sick twist. 

 

Also I enjoy how Jarren uses a lot of movies, actors, and random references in his music.

Im not as crazy as a Hop or FV fan as i used to be. SwizZz, he's ok here and there.. Dizzy plain sucks ass. I never bothered with Jarren after i heard a bit of Lean, which was horrible. And hopsin? i dunno, just not feeling the fire i used to feel. It feels like the only good album he's ever done IMO is Raw. There were a few good songs on GATM. I didnt like haywire so much.

FV = Garbage, Hopsin = Waaaaaaay overrated but really only by people on this site and juggalos lol. Hopsin is a corny ass character with a mediocre Eminem rip off flow. When he's not attacking rappers who wouldnt even give him the time of day his attemps at being a rapper with some real substace(ill mind 5) fall way short. Ive always felt this way and Ive caught shit on this site for it before and Im sure Im about to again but I really dont give a fuck its how I feel
