    I keep asking what exactly it’s influenced? Y’all just keep repeating it’s influenced so much but can’t show me anything at all

    It influenced Yeat and he’s the only popular person with wlr influence

    Other than that it’s just a bunch of unknown carti clones that only get play from Carti stans

    OP keep saying it’s changing the whole game but can’t point out a single song from a big hip hop album that has wlr influence

    NBA youngboy just did an entire WLR-lite album recently that’s just off the top of my head. What’s the point in us cherry picking more examples for you if you already don’t share the same perspective?

    Yall say this like chart topping rappers arent hopping on rage beats its not a sub genre its the direction that rap appears to be taking

    Thats not just bc of carti
    Yeat and them are more influential in the industry than u might think
    Go ask YB

  • Feb 12, 2023

    Carti is a legit artist whether you like it or not. Thats why people like whole lotta red. Not because it's "outside music" or whatever, or because of it's influence, but because carti actually tries different things while still putting together a unified piece of art that tries to push things forward

    WLR birthed Yeat’s entire production style and sound though. Yeat’s sound influence is a direct result of WLR influence so it just stems from that

    It is influential no doubt but people act like it completely changed the whole genre

    When in reality it’s only influenced a small sub genre

    dawg the biggest rapper alive hopped on a F1lthy beat talking about being a vamp and sipping red. lets not do this

    Exactly so don’t you think it’s a little early to be calling it the most influential album of the decade and saying how it shifted the whole genre?

    album still ass

  • Feb 12, 2023

    Like WLR legit birthed Yeat. Outside of his vocal style which is more early Future/thug his entire sound came from WLR

  • rather late

    No

    Also let’s talk about this wave of music

    What popular known in the mainstream artists are primarily doing this sound? Carti and Yeat, That’s it

    Trippy Redd also but he’s kinda got his own little cult fan base

    All of the little Carti clones gonna be completely irrelevant in 2 years

    So what was a popular rage album last year? Cause none of the biggest albums had any rage beats or wlr influence

    Carti’s entire label has been making major moves

    We not bout to act like niggas wasn't calling the album mid and allat when it came out

    But yet that album fathered an entire wave of music thats getting even more prevalent in the mainstream to the point where established artists like YB nem are using so called "rage" beats

    WLR gonna go down as the most influential rap albums of this decade

    That s*** is mid

    Way too early. Some music doesn't show it's influence for decades.

    WLR is the most influential album of the 2020s
