Without Drake this genre is cooked. Good luck to hip-hops relevancy when Drake/Cole/Kendrick really done.
Misleading diagram uses relative numbers, there is no way to tell if they actually declined or not.
YALLS FAVORITE FAT RETÁRDED NEO NAZI JUST SOLD 150k AND YALL WANNA TALK ABOUT HOW RAP IS DEAD. F*** OUTTA HERE
Ok, name a new artist that can sell that many copies.
No one real is listening to Beyonce country
All those listens are bots or her own shills.
You'll be surprised about the Beyhive. 👀👀👀👀
Lil Baby has no good records that Gunna isn't on. He's boring as s*** lmao
I agree. Either make some bangers or make some weird crazy s*** that sounds good
They both boring af, but I agree overall
Hating on ppl who made they way out in favor of subran dudes who doing passion projects with they momma money is sick
Y’all niggas liked this too
So we should pretend Moneybagg Yo is on J Cole, Drake, and Kanye level or we hating on him
And I’m all for black men making moves but at some point praising them for getting rich by glorifying/promoting gangs, murders, robbery, d*** addiction, and other themes the black community is largely crippled from is not the flex you think it is lmao. They are not doing anything with their money and fame earned to reverse these trends and majority continue to partake in them.
You think people who listen to those subsets of music care about billboard?
Yall love bringing up numbers when it comes to how many listeners they have
Yet yall don’t want to prop up anybody interesting
Rich Amiri makes good music for years and as soon as he starts pretending to be future he blows up and hits billboard hot 100 and somehow might be mainstream
Lazer Dim has every quality you could want in a rapper but nobody on here besides a few of us are hyping him up
Wolfacejoeyy is literally incredible and has a great voice but nobody on here hypes him up besides me
OsamaSon is making some of the best Carti / Future / Keef influenced music I’ve heard since Back From The Dead but not many ppl on here are hyping
YhapoJJ is doing early young thug level interesting things but only some people are hyping up him on here too
Idk I blame u f***s and labels/streaming at this point I’m tired of blaming artists when some of them drop incredible music but nobody wants to give it a chance
More than half these artists you can’t name without mentioning another artist name in it. Thats not innovation.
Meanwhile yall pay niggas like kenny Mason and paris texas (who really be innovating) dust on here lm
How the f*** is that a breath of fresh air then? That’s derivative as hell.
Summrs circa 2019-21 combining plugg drums with 90s r&b melodies is way more original than anything Ice had brought to the table
90s r&b melodies where?
Like yall niggas be just talking dawg lol
I don’t know Summrs is or not. Never looked into it but R Kelly being a pedo doesn’t make him a bad singer.
Seems like you’re just deflecting because you’re exactly the type of person I’m talking about.
You’re a pretentious Weeknd, Kanye, Tyler type of fan who looks down on hood music. That’s why you think ice spice is a breath of fresh air because the A&Rs fed it to you
narrator voice: did you know that most of the artists that nikedufflebag stans literally are suburban kids playing hood cosplay
I feel like you're more focused on arguing with people you've seen post and not with what the people ITT are saying.
thats how he deflects
90s r&b melodies where?
Like yall niggas be just talking dawg lol
this nigga does not know a damn thing about 90s R&B
I could care less the bronx didnt make this s*** for the masses anyway mfs was just expressing themselves til it became big business
Legitimately need a rapper who is just genuinely themselves. Isjt trying to project a fake image of being a gangster or playboy. Just a down to earth person who makes really catchy s*** and writes good lyrics.
We already got those
whispers: yall dont find them interesting to listen to
Idk about rock but I will say country is doing something right to get more exposure lol before last yr I would have written that s*** off completely but I definitely dug jelly rolls album and also got into zach bryan, Noah kahan, and Brothers Osbourne too (tbf Zach and Noah could be considered folk but still)
Rock seems to be in just as bad if not a worse place than hip hop IMO but if projections say otherwise maybe I'm wrong just didn't really notice a lot of great rock releases last yr or this yr so far
narrator voice: did you know that most of the artists that nikedufflebag stans literally are suburban kids playing hood cosplay
Yeah I guess YB, Baby Smoove, NoCap, Veeze, Rio, Babydrill, DThang, etc are all suburban rappers . You’re really hilarious and funny bro

J.Cole was basically that until niggas clowned him to oblivion and made him start doing flex raps
Drake was that also to a certain extent in his early years
