I don’t think he wants a hit tbh

He got street hits

Don’t need suburban hot 100 hits

hearing 2 people play it in your hometown does not make something a hit.

for sure

I don't think so, his business model isn't really hit-centric

i live on the ground floor of an apartment in downtown houston and i hear cars blasting yb in traffic every single day

Nigga houston is like youngboy hotstop cmon now that's literally his most streamed city im p sure lol

I live in another country and that's all I legit hear coming from cars him or rod wave, idk why these users have this archaic measurement on a hit, sales is a good indicator on what the music world determines a hit for sure and bb position but not always, legit in real life a lot of kids from maybe 10-25 can recite at least 4 yb songs with no issues

This definitely isn’t true lol, even though label spend is a big factor.

YB could get an organic hit, it’s possible.

I got a whole video of a house party crowd rapping YB word for word bruh ya'll gotta stop with this no one listens to YB s*** lol

The chances of YB getting a solo top 5 is near impossible.

Griddy

He has multiple and if you don’t get this you’re just completely out of touch

You’re a moron

Xo was also a loosie drop. It took weeks for it to catch on.

If it was a lead single for LIR2 it would have went #1

Same here

YB and Gates is who I hear the most

Bro I have literally heard a dude blasting Cross Me in the next door bathroom stall while taking a s*** at work

I hear this s*** constantly

YB is a massively popular artist and it’s extremely weird the hoops you all try to jump through to deny this

It just shows me you clearly have no idea what’s going on in hip hop

What country are you from btw?

“Nobody listening to YB, all his music sounds the same”

Thanks for the input poster from Kyrgyzstan

He’s playing a different game than chasing billboard hits. He got a cult following and independent at age 22.

He barely does features or use social media. Billboard isn’t how u should judge his success

Hes credited on it

He singing in the background

I never said he aint popular. Tf r u on? Just said he aint got a hit and that's ok. What's wrong with that? There's lots of popular artists that don't got those career defining hits and im sure youngboy will get one eventually just stop comparing him to Wayne

This is the best explanation. The “I hear him everywhere” thing is a bit anecdotal
