Then work your way down with Radioactive, The Slumdon Bridge w/ Ed Sheeran, Psycho White w/ Travis Barker and Black Fall w/ DJ Paul. His "Best of Freestyles" mixtape is also a fun listen, but not essential to his discography.
Once you start getting used to him, check out the Arena Rap EP (his best project imo) and Stereo (also very, very good).
AVOID Heart of Dixie, Ball of Flames, and Pissing In a Barrel of Bees AT ALL COSTS. Very mediocore attempts.
His first album Creekwater is basically his version of Infinite, he was still finding who he was (he found his voice on Stereo). Solid listen. I reccomend listening to that last.
But yeah, hope you enjoy
Why should he AVOID, Heart Of Dixie, Ball Of Flames and Pissing In A Barrel Of Beez... they're not Yela best mixtapes, but they're not bad, Heart Of Dixie is good, at least, Ball Of Flames is fun to hear, ALSO, My Box Chevy, is there, the start of the Box Chevy saga. Pissing In A Barrel Of Beez is, well, you can hear it at least once..
To me, he should listen to Trunk Muzik 0-60, then Radioactive, Trunk Muzik Returns, Arena Rap EP, Psycho White EP, Slumdon Bridge EP, Stereo, Black Fall... and CreekWater.
