    He never had a chance at selling out arenas. He’s always been more so known for his mouth and controversy, not music.

    Dummy Boy would have still done less than less an average Meek Mill or Future album if it had a proper release and that was his musical peak in terms of popularity.

    Street rappers have always had a harder time doing larger shows. They don't cater to non hood niggas. Ktt doesn't get this because they didnt grow up in hiphop. Lmao jay z wasnt doing 50k crowds like that

    niggas fake they streams and can’t sell shows 🥱

    This, it’s hard to compare artist who get plays off of YouTube videos vs. artist from back in the day who had to make people buy their albums and merch and tune into radio shows the hear their music (i.e. pretty much all of the people in the list in OP)

    Low hanging fruit. Giving off them Twitter nigga vibes. You don’t like Andrew Schultz presumably which is fine, calling him racist is a big reach though.

    I listened to the entire F2 episode, which was surprisingly good, not a big Ak fan by any means.

    You said White acts from other genres and that's important because Beyonce, Rihanna, and Usher never had much issues selling out shows. Even Chris's problematic ass was doing arenas a few years back.

    In the rap world, though, it ain't that different. You're ability to sell out arenas will depend on how well your performances are, how much hits you have, and how strong your fanbase is regardless of race. Kendrick's DAMN tour was selling out like crazy worldwide from an album where he called himself an Israelite and showed pride in his blackness lmao.

    Ain’t no rapper selling out arenas without cross over appeal. Kendrick crossed over during DAMN. Nigga was performing with Imagine Dragons n s*** or whatever they’re called.

  • Jul 13, 2021

    Drake is an anomaly and stands alone at this point, so he’s whatever.

    J Cole I guess could be considered the “purest” rapper in regards to his music carrying over and being able to sell out arenas. I’ve never really seen white J Cole fans like that. Women claim to love him though.
