f*** it i'll go country too

me too man

Hip-hop spent 10+ years as the zeitgeist. I don't think we have the cultural attention span to do that again.

agreed. the run is insane. its gotta be longer than 10 years dont u think?

I'm not shocked

F*** Elvis and Post Malone too

i touch on this in the video too and i honestly didnt realize how far back it went

Started early/mid aughts. Ended late tens. It's definitely a gradient though.

It went from rappers being rappers to rappers trying to break into pop to rappers deciding they weren't rappers. That's the arc. Sell headphones, liquor, vitamin water, clothes. Be an actor. Make a movie. Make a TV show.

10,000,000 Spotify streams get you paid the salary of a mailman. These country artists aren't going to be country artists either. That s*** is over. Music is a ladder to something else.

Hell yeah give me more Goodie Mobs, Big Krits and Z-Ros

A need some nice early 2000’s country revival

I’m down. Country was the most wrongly disrespected genre off pure ignorance.

10-15 years ago the default answer for what kinda music do you like was “anything except country” when people never even listened to it to make a judgement on it

Fire ass genre and artists and I don’t mind it taking the spotlight for a bit

big part of my video is me unlearning the country sucks idea i was told as a kid lol

the crazy thing is as someone with over 10 million streams its actually still less than a mailman once you account for costs, unless youre completely self produced, do all the art yourself and spend nothing on promo

Hot Take (lol): JT is ahead of his time

old town road was inspired by the meme song lil tracy and uzi made idk about joanne. also I think rap and rnb moving away from being seen as the transgressive genre in the mainstream has more of an impact than any one person could, especially in this case with the current country trend replacing it

Sometimes you gotta go country on em

ima need to revisit that s*** haha

I agree. It gets disrespected but I think R&B kind of gets dissed a bit more from my experience. Some cool s*** tho in the genre

Hadji going country fried steak with tztizki sauce

lil ugly mane been on the country wave (kind of) for years now
