2 Chainz: Influences

2 Chainz: Influences

Like a comedian who works blue, 2 Chainz makes a dark art of the lowbrow. His explicit club raps and sleazy humour were presaged by Ludacris, who married tawdry lyrics to subwoofer-shredding beats on "Southern Hospitality". Likewise, Captain Save a Hoe himself, E-40, established the template for outsize slang that 2 Chainz later embraced. As for snappy punchlines, few drop them hotter than Snoop Dogg.
