not even a hot take

Probably not a hot take but

I like some of Post Malone s*** but he’s the most blatant example of someone using black culture as a stepping stone and then abandoning it with success and he lowkey deserved his fall off

post malone is a wonderful artist and human being.

He seems like a genuinely nice dude and does have talent I agree

good. move on now sir.

sorry, my post still up there

Tyler the best working rapper rn but he ain't got s*** to rap about.

RxNephew and RxPapi the best newcomers.

thank you sir god bless

This is facts
Yeezus is the best example of this too

Not just hiphop

When it's all said and done imma be looking down at you

How so?

Better question is who did it after?

Travis, Drake, and Kendrick for starters

Kanye raised the scope of how mainstream rap should sound but didn’t inspire musically copycats like Future

Is inspiring musical copycats a good thing?

but better

It’s influence

ye inspired the most successful musical copycat of all time... Aubrey Graham

Proud Boys are influenced by Hitler

Time Magazine wanted to call Hitler the most influential man of the 20th century. Are they wrong?

MJ out now

f*** no

he just changed his name lmao, he's literally itt

while I do agree I think ye used to be doing that but in a real original way that still brought a ton to the table

and with yeezus specifically, theres no album like it that sounds as good imo

my hot take for yeezus is that only kanye at that point in time could make an album like that and pull it off, I am still waiting to see someone take it and make it even better
