ASAP Rocky is not a great rapper. He's got a great ear for beats, and he's just capable enough on the mic to do those beats justice.

Earl's flow is probably the best out of the "new" generation (Kendrick, Rocky, etc).
Verse 1 on whoa ****ing kills it.

Grab mittens who have to spit blizzardous
Actually flick cigarette ash at bitch ****as
Harassment, eight nickels of hash, delay quick, and then dash
To Saint Nicholas pad to taste venison
Still in the business of smacking up little rappers with
Racquets you play tennis with, hated for bank lifting and
Spraying that hotter wind in the shade of his maimed innocence
Suitcase scented with haze and fileted sentences
Advanced apathy, smashing the man cameras up
Tan khakis and antagonists Dan-dappered up
Vagabond, had it since a Padawan
Rapping hot as **** in cattle brands, wearing flannel thongs
Grab a bong, momma and some food, beer, tag along
Get a nice spanking, new Sears catalog
Send them nettled critics to the bezzle stop, dead and wrong
Get 'em higher than the pitch of metal tea kettle songs

I liked Rocky's album but it has a decidedly more pop-ish vibe. I liked Doris more for that raw throwback to 90's style hip hop where the lyrics and MC dominate the song.
