Also on average it takes 2 to 4 years for the average rapper to pop
So dont be discouraged thinking s*** aint happening overnight
I'm probably tryna go the Ye route and stick to producing on my end, then as time goes by, I could finally mold and shape my rapping and singing skills.
Plus Ye blew up by 26, so I might be on the right path
Facts people be thinking some rappers blow up overnight. Nah they been grinding but you have to really search for their old songs or be from around their neighborhood/area t know that they been gridding for years.
Faxx & there is a lot of growing happening during that time
Plus getting word out there genuinely takes time

Same with Jay Z too, actually even RD got ignored for two ish years initially it was vol 1 that actually blew him up n then RD got big retroactively, he was like 27/28 by vol 1.
It doesnt matter for the most part. What does matter is not being out of touched or outdated or dusty looking. Thats the key difference. Jay, DaBaby n Chainz are prime examples.
these old niggas stupid. Talent is talent idgaf else about the other s***
music industry is hardly about music tbh, it's about image and marketing a lifestyle
Most people above 25 doing music aren't living the life that young people want to see and hear. people in high school and college are the main consumers of
music.
fax Durk been goin strong for multiple years straight

in relative music industry terms i'd say it's kind of late
Theres no age in music any artist can make it
How is that a Late age?
Music doesn't have an Age limit.
Idk how y'all don't understand this

Sia is a perfect example she been around for years, but had her best year in like 2014-2015
Isn’t mid 20s the norm lowkey? It seems like blowing up super young is some pop teeny bopper s*** specifically but not the rule or norm
No, not in recent times. Pop Smoke, Kodak Black, XXX, Juice Wrld, and Yachty all blew up in their late teens or early 20s. Those are just the names off the top of my head.
Drake stimulus helped him. However Durk's success is deserved
It helped but his album in 2020 popped off before that
Is 27 late these days
When most artists are blowing up off their rough drafts in thier early 20s id say so

feel like they fall off earlier too though
Yes it is kind of actually. Someone(he in the industry trying to bring someone to Warner Bros) who came to the studio one day was looking for talent and he said he didn't want anyone over 25 years old.
He’s dumb af actually
Yall gotta stop acting like he wasn’t already poppin for years before. Yeah he reached a whole nother level of mainstream but was already well known/established. He was already shining. Didn’t need white America approval to do that
Durk was always a star. His label issues just delayed the inevitable.
