True. The more controversial take is that Frank has the same modus operandi as Travis and Rocky and isn't much better as a musician
Whoa! Bold. I like it.
Travis Scott really is an auteur with weak taste. I guess this is why he is so frictionless and able to just be a vessel for whatever producers and collaborators the industry gives him. Having a distinguished palette would mean having some convictions and strong opinions about things and that is an impediment to McDonalds and Fortnite sponsorships.
He opted for the Jordan playbook instead of Bron
travis scott is less of an artist because of how much he pushes his music as a commodity product in his larger branding image
asap rocky keeps the branding to the branding (mostly)
I’m tired of people pretending that artists don’t care about money or being known

im not saying that
im saying that travis communicates his artistic works as commodity products
that is inherently less artistic than someone who doesn't do such because you're prioritizing expression less and replacing more of the purpose of the work with a concern about financial success in a market

Rocky wants to be a commodity he’s just kind of bad at it imo

because he's not doing it to the full tilt degree travis is
rocky will never spin a franchise boyz interpolation into a mcdonalds collaboration and that makes him a much more solid artist
I’m here for all the Rocky slander dude is overrated asf
He seems really dumb in a non endearing way

Sounds like something only a true artist could pull off

Honestly I like a fair amount of his music and I’d never deny he released an influential and regarded project but that s*** came out when I was 18-19 and what has he done since then…..like I’m 31 lmao

no different from fortnite finding a way to put a reference from one cultural marker in a seasonal skin pack referencing another
rocky actually is very talented in many different ways, probably more than travis tbh. Trab can produce and has made some insane records but he still feels bland and like Ye/Cudi autotune kid.
Rocky had a whole collective of creatives around him and he’s always been that type of dude. He can design, act, model, give a memorable 16.

rocky's entire discography released in the same time span as since testing
@op do you just mean you think Travis has better taste than Rocky? “more of an artist” doesn’t really make sense

I think taste and artistry are very much intertwined and Travis embodies more of an artistic spirit than rocky. Sometimes art is just making cool stuff and Travis makes much cooler stuff
now u just hating
Can’t believe we made it 3 pages without someone pointing out this is a thinly veiled Rocky hate thread
