Why he might be annoying:

His gruff voice makes it hard to think you are listening to a good rapper.
He relies heavily on guest stars and high profile producers when releasing a record.
He smokes marijuana.
He lost on the 'Weakest Link.'

Why he might not be annoying:

On the weakest link, Anne Robinson asked him why he kept his hands his pockets, so he joked back, 'So I don't steal anything.'
Without the aid of an overplayed single or much promotion, his album 'Restless' debuted higher then his mentor Snoop Dogg's, which was released the same weekend and had the benefit of such luxuries.
He bred 'G-Funk' and lyrical rap together to make his style unique.
He has all the potential to succeed Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg as the king of west coast rap.
