Thats one of my favorite Nerd songs, let’s hug this one out
the people that are telling you he’s the next big thing have foresight
there was a moment when most people just knew futures features too
third coast is definitely a poppin song from him that people know though tbh. and i’ve seen vids of his shows where hundreds of people sing word for word with his album cuts.
we just early into his journey and his features are with superstars so yeah those songs will be more popular, but his time is swiftly approaching
if u only knew future's features u dont listen to rap. only acceptable in 2011

yeah i’m talking about 2010-2011 lmao before he had smash hits as a lead artist and casuals knew his features
you’re proving my point. early on certain artists that can become superstars may be more known for features, especially if they do features for a bunch of bigger artists
bruno mars is another example

teezo has been "next up" for how long?
he reminds me of YBN Cordae. every publication pushing him as the next thing and nothing happens. ppl till this day still say he got heat on the way. who gets that kinda grace?

breaking an artist takes years man
especially as music and the consumption of it has changed.
teezo has steadily grown year after year. his management has taken the appropriate approach of building him slowly to grow his base and make them feel like they’re apart of something early.
his bio on spotify since like 2020 has said “don’t worry you’re early”. you know what has to happen in order for that pay off to eventually work? they have to take their time.
watching this and acting like nothing is happening for him is crazy lol. not to s*** on cordae at all but it’s a completely different situation here.

well put and not many understand this. the journey with an artist is what makes people stay and what gives people "late to the party" an opportunity to research
Sean has been moving crazy weird these last few years.
claimed he leaked his own d*** pic by sending it to a friend so they can send it to a chick.
had been releasing multiple pictures and videos with his d*** print on show.
Is this guys advertising himself?

this really isn't true anymore imo, ever sinec 2019/2020 ish (maybe even a few years before) it's the literal opposite. Almost everyone blowing up to the mainstream got there super quickly. The only exception I can think of is Sabrina.
Look at Chappell Roan's rise man. It's f***ing insane. Her debut album came out sept 2023, it didn't even chart in the top 200 fw. In fact the album only charted in the TOP 200 highest selling albums of the week in god damn March. 6 months after it came out.
3 months after that she's selling out huge shows and now she's doing crazy numbers. She's borderline become a household name literally over night. She was a nobody 12 months ago
There's so many examples of this; Lil Baby, Olivia Rodrigo, Morgan etc and so many others, yet I can't name any Sabrina route artists except Sabrina herself.
Olivia Rodrigo went from a nobody Disney star to outselling Ariana Grande & Justin Bieber like 6 months later

No glaze I love your input on this website
It’s cool seeing a different perspective

It's a lot of white people out here, and they're not musically inclined
didn't Ice Spice (a 2020s 'rapper') just flopp? And isn't Kendrick (a 2010s rapper) at the top of the charts right now?

You can't really compare Ice or any 2020s rapper is she is from this era with different standards of success since streaming changed the game.
Kendrick and Sean debuted when albums were still selling decent sales before streaming took over.

i definitely see where you’re coming from
and i love the success stories of all of these artists
but a lot of artists are having slow growth as well and my main point is that something isn’t wrong if the artist doesn’t have a smash within 3 years of being introduced, and as long as they are constantly trending upward instead of being stagnant, things are fine
it’s dope that chappell roan, sabrina carpenter, tyla etc were able to move from the bottom to the top of the list at their labels so quickly
but artists like teezo, latto, jordan ward and more are having a slower ascent that i believe can end in them being superstars within the next three years. i’d also argue that jordan and teezo in particular having sounds and looks that don’t easily mesh into the genre they’re apart of is apart of why the process is slow, but also a part of why they’ll last longer. similar to tyler, travis and sza for their gen. there’s no one size fits all approach to breaking artists, and i just don’t want us to think if you’re not moving as quickly as others, you’re not moving at all.
i know this post was long as f*** too, my bad lmao
if we were judging a lot of legends on that same rubric, we’d never believe tyler would sell our arena tours and win grammys because he didn’t have a palatable hit until “see you again”, 6 years after yonkers went viral
we’d never think travis would be a tier 1 artist commercially because he didn’t sell over 100k first week until astroworld, 6 years after he appeared on cruel summer
we’d never imagine sza as a pop star because she didn’t get a radio hit until ctrl, 4 years after she got signed to tde
etc

For sure, this is a recent thing and I hope the industry changes especially now Sabrina's finally broken into the real mainstream but labels really don't seem to wanna put resources behind artists that fail anymore. I honestly think Latto is gonna be shelved now, her album flopped badly & it just doesn't really make sense for a label to trust her again when they can go trust some new viral girl instead
Same with Teezo, it just doesn't seem to make sense for these labels to put resources behind him, especially in Teezo's case when his music isn't mainstream friendly at all. This guy's had some of the biggest cosigns possible yet it has barely helped him at all
