The entire B.o.B./Wiz Khalifa/Lupe/Flo Rida era of Atlantic was Caren. The pre-packaged rap singles with pre-written and sung pop hooks already attached was his idea and playbook. All of the beats were done by Atlantic/Warner signed producers and the same went for the writers of the hooks.

Yup. The labels will hold onto particular beats/lyrics for specific artists even if it takes years. I genuilly believe they did that with The Weeknd’s career starting with I can’t feel my face
I took it as people are gonna have to be even more engaging/exciting/fake deep personalities before the music even comes into play
Think Kanye or Kodak lmaoo or it could also just mean people get way more conceptual in presentation and narrative even if the actual music still is mediocre/the same
Essentially music indistry speak for its gonna be about the controversial personalities and the semi world builders. Just my interpretation tho
this is why every great musician has multiple characters (the weeknd right now) they can encompass or successfully build a palatable world to engage in like he said
but it feels like today it’s just straight controversy that you build a world with
