You can't knock his improvement from his debut album. He's got Detroit classics like Royce da 5'9" and Em giving him respect, saying his new music is fantastic. He had a listening session (for Hall Of Fame) with Em and Em agreed to listen to a couple tracks to get a feel for the album and give Sean his opinion. Em ended up listening to the whole album and loved it.
Also, if what you said was true, 'Ye wouldn't have signed him. Simple as that.
