Robb did lowkey ascend on this track and I don't think it's discussed enough.
Robb dropped some of his best s*** in 2018. Solid loosies, Mollyworld, Cloverfield 3, 100YEARWAR Pt 1

amazing song
He was on his way up when he first came up on Tumblr then everyone finding out he was Shaggy son kinda stunted him. Still dropped classics over the years.
I don't think it was just that he was Shaggy's son, but that he was rapping about selling coke and doing d*** runs, only for people to find out that he was Shaggy's son. Which he tried to deny at first.
It's also worth pointing out that he went from sounding and acting like this:
To acting super hard and "certified" with "mob ties"
Him getting smacked by ASAP, his beef with J $tash and the family photos that got released as a result, along with a video of him dancing on stage with Shaggy.
The Joey Fatts situation, the fake Raf jacket. Him signing to Cash Money...
Honestly I ain't think much of him being into anime cause it's a lot of "hard" dudes from South Florida who cape for anime/manga these days around Robb's age.
Honestly if he didn't deny Shaggy being his pops I don't think anyone would really care, so I do think that did hurt him a bit. Kinda weird to deny though honestly. I mean s*** look at Lil Tracy for example. He's the son of Ishmael Butler and I don't doubt much of the s*** Tracy says he has done despite his pops being apart of Digable Planets in the 90s. That nigga nuttier than some squirrel s***.
Just cause you got famous parents doesn't mean you're not able to get involved in some s***. Especially when that parent is out touring and living in another country while you get sent to some public school in/near the hood. It's just kinda weird to use footage from when a dude was like...12 years old against him when his own pops speaks on their relationship and says it mostly dissolved by the time he was 14
Meant to reply to @TuxedoMask but you get my idea
It's definitely just the nostalgia talking. Remember, it's people who will say that Rocky still hasn't surpassed Live.Love.ASAP and they genuinely believe that.
It’s easier to make the argument Rocky has made better s*** because some of his other albums are actually original in their own right
Almost none of Robb’s recent s*** feels different than Robb s*** from 5 years ago (and almost none of it stands out as much as the cloud rap s*** from calendars or the SGP beats)

Idk how life woulda went if he stayed in the middle class gangsta sounding lane, but I don’t think he could be in a lower tier in hip hop than he is currently. Might as well stuck with it

All I can say to this is you may need to listen to Mollyworld again. That album doesn't sound like anything released on Calendars, Tha City, or Year of the Savage. Calendars 2 is probably the last project from him that sounds similar to those previous releases, but that was because that's what Robb was going for to please the fans of those projects.
This track is cloud rap, but you not finding anything like this on his first three projects
FALCONIA NEVER GON COME OUT
He’s a troll for saying that in urus. I laughed out loud when I heard that
Yo, check his story, Robb in the hospital. He may have caught covid or some s***
About a decade in the game. Cult classic mixtapes
He has bars. He has melodies. He’s original but he just never saw true mainstream success.
he'd be legendary if he popped off in 2016-17 with the other Florida artists he had a hand in bringing up. sad he never got to benefit from the work he's put in

but he's successful in a sense. there's millions of rappers, musicians all over the world, who will never see the success of Robb Banks. so idk. As Logic once said "the greatest rapper alive is probably stacking produce"

I just peeped. I hope he’s good

For sure. Not trying to minimize his accomplishments or career.

!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qScfbutD-rYIdk what song this is better than on Calendars. Like maybe the last two, that’s it.
This Robb is different than pre 2016 Robb no doubt, but I could find this song formula in quite a few of his projects since then. Almost verbatim on the X tribute track from..clover field 3? It’s a re-used flow for him. I like the beat though
From my POV, the big things that make his current s*** (I liked NR2 and some songs from both Leaks) not as memorable is: 85% of the project is going to be those skittish double time flows! Which I like SOMEtimes (Kuban doll, Brain) but it’s too much
Tha City
Mollyworld
C2
All three classics
Arc 0 was great, everything else the past 2 years so strange like why you moving so haphazardly nigga

Nothing was really the same after Calendars era tbh he should’ve ran with that style for longer
