Musical style
In a mixed review by Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork King's musical style on his debut album Baby Goat is described in the following manner: "As a singer, King's vocals were similar; you could tell he grew up on Young Thug like his brother. But instead of Melly's rough edge, BSlime's raps are brighter, like he sings hopped up on Honey Buns and dollar cans of Arizona iced tea." Steve Juon, writing for Rap Reviews also notes his style's similarity to Juice WRLD and Future. In an interview with RapTV, he calls Travis Scott, XXXTentacion, and older brother YNW Melly his biggest influences.
