    NLU is the biggest rap song of all time. It's not just streaming numbers. The cultural impact and how it impacted the global culture this year has never been seen before.

    No one could have imagined this, not even Kendrick.

    WHAT?! lmao

    Is there a term for the opposite of recency bias? I feel like a lot of people have that when it comes to not just art, but things like sports and culture in general.

    We shouldn’t have to wait for years to acknowledge how great or remarkable something is

    Yes because when you don’t know something you ask instead of acting like you know everything. Hope this helps

    And it’s not even really nostalgia either. It’s just people not willing to admit something is great on a big picture level just because enough time hasn’t passed it.

    There are people my age who have never witnessed Magic Johnson play and are not willing to say that Steph Curry is greater all time simply because enough time hasn’t passed

    Weeks at #1 means nothing.

    Some of the biggest rap songs of all time never even hit #1

    Well, to you. But it was just a post with some context and history.

    You also got people born in 2005 who say a 2020s song is the biggest song ever because it broke Spotify/Billboard records that get inevitably get broken every few years so it balances out tbh

    That’s cool, it’s just not the undeniable biggest Rap song in history as of yet. No matter what records you post it still isn’t making it objective lmao.

    it will never be unanimous. It's in the convo with the songs you mentioned.

    Longevity we will see, but first year it's up there atleast in my lifetime that I have witnessed.

    1. Nobody said it was?

    2. There will never be a unanimously agreed upon #1 biggest song ever of any genre, so dismissing it by saying that is ludicrous

    Nostalgia bias?

    I said above I feel like it’s not really nostalgia because you will get people who never experienced certain things saying that the older thing is better solely because enough time hasn’t passed on the newer thing yet.

    Example: any kind of sports GOAT debate, you’ll have 20 year olds saying Steph Curry can’t be in Magic convos, and they never witnessed Magic so they have no nostalgia tied to it

    I think nostalgia plays a factor into that tho. They only really think that because that’s what they were taught growing up. Growing up all I hear about was how both MJs and Mike Tyson were the goats and I still think that even tho I never got to experience their primes live in person

    Thats definitely true but for some artists you don't need the experiences in their primes live in person

    Michael Jackson is the biggest example for that
