This the closet thing to an interview i could find with Ian.
Honestly seems like a pretty normal 19 year old

I think only time will tell if he actually finds his own sound cause the young excuse is valid and from his SC hes been making music since he was 14.
def think everyone thinks the weird part is it SOUNDS like hes trying to imitate a nigga LMAO

I wish nothing but the worst for Ian but his manager right

Nobody wants to talk about this

The actual people who made the original music gave him props but KTT knights know better apparently

Don’t forget Southside is in the Grand Slam video

I’ve said it before but Yeat is more of a problem than Ian is lol. Yeat’s image and lingo is damn near a caricature of black people. Ian just has a rap voice but everything else is him being himself

There’s a reason Yeat had an image crisis around his newest album

• His manager isn't making any sense
• His manager isn't even Black American

pitchfork said it best about ian

"He’s just a white kid that has heard a lot of rap, and there are lots of them. After years spent falling down SoundCloud wormholes, I’m almost numb to white rappers that would probably do the surgery from Face/Off with Chief Keef or Young Thug if it were possible."

Tyler's point is mute because A) Ian isn't making a mockery of the indust b) Tyler has literally made a mockery of the genre multiple times in the past.

you're either a weirdo cracker or a c**n if you're going hard for Ian. He might actually be the worst white boy to ever get on the mic and blow up simply for being an average white frat boy that you can find in any American suburb. No charisma, No skills on the mic, just getting by off pure white privilege. At least Vanilla Ice was a Hip Hop dancer and was in the scene before he got picked to be Hip Hop Elvis. I don't know what about this white boy is making these niggas suck the cheese off his d***.

Ian makes amazing music and is actually a youth icon right now.

He's the culture now. Not Tyler.

That's just the hard-to-swallow truth.

Tyler can kick rocks and admit himself in a retirement home now.

while I personally don't really listen to Ian or love his music he is defnitely more in touch with modern generation than Tyler the creator

Tyler is right

1.Tyler is right
2. The youth modern generation f***s with Ian
3. At the same age Tyler was writing rape fantasy edgy bullshit . Which even if I hate cultural appropriation I prefer Ian doing that to what tyler was doing at the same age

ALL 3 ARE TRUE

Is it mocking or is it just tongue in cheek? If anything he's mocking himself

2. No one cares about what the modern generation likes, their taste and artists are trash

3. Horrorcore exists within the subculture of rap, and at a different time in society. That's not something equitable in this conversation
