    1. Wow for the 2nd half especially. Detroit (& surrounding areas in MI), other than NYC (& surrounding area in NY) is the illest super dope emcee city ever imo. Em in his prime (96/97-02/early 03), ELZHI (arguably the illest CONSISTENT breathing super dope emcee spitting in 2011, mos def top 3 @ WORST!), Royce, One Be Lo (another underground legend like eLZhi although he’s from Pontiac), Jon Connor now!?!? Invicible is top 3 femcee right now too probably only behind Jean Grae imo.

      Interesting, i’m gonna be looking out even more now for this dude (2nd half of this verse is the hardest i’ve heard from him, but i’ve honestly not had time to listen to a ton of him, just here and there)

    2. Because HE KNOCKED THIS SHIT OUT
      Because HE KNOCKED THIS SHIT OUT

    3. Real recognize real. Would love to see this song hit the top of the hottest singles listing. Too bad people are sleepin on Jon. I only heard of him about 6 months ago myself. I figure it would take about 10,000 views here before mass people would take a look if they aint heard of him before now. I remember, I think it was his DJ Delz freestyle – I call it “Extraordinary” – was the first song I heard. Just saw his name, I think there was may-be 600 views or somethin, by the end of the day, I must have heard like 30 tracks and they were all just dope. When these other guys here talkin bout he never disappoints, they aint just talkin shit. Connor has quickly become the new Pacquiao of my current top ten. Waiting to see how “Million Dollar Story” will stack up to “Salvation”, or if “Playlist Poison” will have me as hyped as “Venom” did…..

      Of course, 5 stars.

    4. jus heard bout him 2day and im impressed..he sounds like B.o.b but he’s more lyrical ( no offense to B.o.b cuz he’s good too)

    5. I go to Michigan State University and live in Flint, went to a free Mike Posner/Big Sean concert(for Big Sean of course) last year before they blew up and Jon Connor opened for them in a ballroom populated by 60 people. Not gonna lie, I slept on this dude. Mateen Cleaves came on stage(it was at MSU lol) and told us this dude Jon Connor was legit, who woulda thought Mateen had the next best thing, Jon Connor steals every song he gets on, he outdoes everybody 5/5.

    6. This dude spits fire, but im not sold yet, gotta hear some metaphors and more creativity, this is definitely a 4 but not a 5, a 1 being nick cannon, a 5 being tupac or some biggie shit

      1. A few excellent places to start would be:

        High Times
        Another One
        Moment 4 Life
        The Message
        Epic
        American Psycho
        Extraordinary (DJ Delz Freestyle)
        Gorgeous
        It’s Gonna Come
        The Show Goes On
        Poison
        I C U Lookin
        Know the Ledge
        Vent Session
        The Heist
        I’m On It

        That should do for a start.

      2. Also, not all Jon’s song’s are the same. Some are introspective, some are real talk (salute to Freddie Gibbs here) others are more metaphor-heavy, American Psycho is just nuts. The versatility of the rapper is what makes them one of the greats – old school or new school – the ability to cover a spectrum of topics is always better. 2pac, for example, rapped about almost every topic you could think of – not just thug life – and was able to reach a much larger audience because of that. Brenda’s got a baby & Life Goes On are not my favorite 2pac songs, but they undoubtably raised his popularity nonetheless. And no offense, I consider Pac to be the GOAT in my own opinion, but he was not the best metaphorically and neither was B.I.G.

      3. Damn homie! Diggin in the crates there man. Forgot about a few of those. Off of “Everybody Hates Connor” Good lookin.
