i feel like dvsn tried pretty hard to not be mysterious with the last album rollout
i also think a lot of artists arent intentionally trying to be mysterious but rather are going thru it behind the scenes and thus disappearing for a while / struggling to put in the necessary work to take the next steps in their career for whatever reason / stuck in a bad deal. but for a lot of fans it looks like theyre intentionally trying to ghost or create an aesthetic
Carti had a whole promo campaign about being introverted & people painted him as mysterious for not doing interviews lol

i think with him it was intentional tho for sure and also idk if i would say it ruined his career. but yea thats gotta be the closest thing to what op was getting at
if being elusive, enigmatic etc ruins your music career how good are you even lmao
Carti dropped like 5 music videos in the last 4 months lmao
None of which were put on streaming
Pretty mysterious if you ask me
dvsn wasn’t too mysterious they just decided to make “toxic boyz” their persona and the music wasn’t good enough to excuse the corny image
when y'all speak of "mysterious artists" i think of like...SAULT. not f***ing Bryson Tiller and dvsn
But it didn't ruin her career.
Thanks to ICE SPICE! We can rock Pinkpanthress!
It’s funny how some of the artists I could name wouldn’t even ring bells or are only songwriters now for a multitude of different reasons
I think sometimes that the idea of mystery attached to some artists isn’t fair bc they are actually trying to preserve their humanity in a traditional way that artists would prior to social media but a lot of the examples in the thread were artists who move a specific way for marketing purposes as well
it’s a fine line fr
