    Not true he wasn’t Sad! Or superstar level but his og look at me video with the mugshot and sippin tea with the kid with two joints up his nose thumbnail were heavy in the algo on YT as were most SoundCloud rappers of that time

    That was like tail end of prime SoundCloud era Right before it super got corporatized in 17/18

    The mugshot hadn’t even been taken yet when frank dropped, that was a few months later

    Look At Me video didn't even drop until 2017 bro

    Came out late 2015/2016 but it was re-released with a MV and as a new single in 2017 once the white kids got on it and he was fully mainstream

    It was out before 2017 then tho gang

    u said his og look at me video, that's what I'm talking about.

    And also, there is an obvious popularity that came POST mugshot that even Denzel Curry said in an interview that he got famous BECAUSE of how much trouble he was getting into lol.

    I'm giving priority to the niggas that knew him in Florida's opinions, bro was not popping when Blonde dropped.

    Yeah, the “og music video” I meant the audio with whatever random thumbnails he had bro.

    you just misunderstood, everyone knows he obviously got more famous post 2017, getting on XXX, signing to a major

    The song was out and poppin in 2016, white kids got on it in 2017 lol

    I know look at me dropped years before the video but that video gained major conversation due to the "ooo look at me edgy hanging a white kid" imagery.
