Nas cuz he has a way of making meaningful tracks and it seeming like he's more intelligent than you...his shit really got me into making deep songs..

Esham, and Twiztid...both of those influenced me to begin rapping...I just tried to do like they did and it sucked so I changed my shit up n eventually ended up like I am now...

Canibus and Chino XL helped me a lot lyrically..especially with punchlines...

there's a shitload more but I don't feel like getting into all of em...

peace
