ZokkonThe musician that the tik tok fans were primarily exposed to while growing up was TRAVIS SCOTT so they learned how to tune out any lyrics and just go with the vibes

Jim Halpertthis is not how fanbases get built
they do not know the words to his most famous song lol
Bags are secured when your songs pop off somehow
Fanbases are built when people start saying you saved their lives or w/e
You can tell the difference in dedication between, for example, Taylor Swift fans and Katy Perry fans. One of them was able to survive a flop era and the other totally cratered because the fanbases were legit with one and not the other
It’s an interesting question, what kind of fanbases can truly be built on TikTok based around snippets of songs? It’s still possible but it’s more difficult I think

Taylor Swift level fanbases are often built on memorable and relatable verses that speak to specific types of people that aren’t being spoken to - and huge hooks on top of that
Oct 17, 2022Lmao I f*** wit Steve Lacy but this is crazy. I mean it’s more common than niggas would think but it was nothing he could do but laugh that off

tomorrow volversethis went #1 on Billboard? can't be true.
Just goes to show you that no amount of manufactured hype on TikTok or anywhere online can buy you a real fanbase
YB doesnt care about sales but if he did a show in that venue his fans would know a lot of his songs word for word
I wouldn’t say he doesn’t have a fan base he came up as a crucial member of the band. the Internet. In this instance he just caught one with the help of tik tok so he probably has more new “fans” that don’t know his lyrics lol

Like even Steve is visibly bothered by it, look at how he said “now sing the verses” like a fed up parent facetiously ordering their kid to do some bad s*** again in front of em before whooping them. “Come on say that cuss word again” and making the kid actually do it while the kid stands there crying cause they know they f***ed up vibes
It’s just one show, I doubt this is the norm.

And that s*** ain’t happening in TikTok hits.
I’m not worried about the state of music today because life is more than TikTok and great music will always be made, but I’m not surprised this is happening with artists who blow up based on snippets.

Legit the only reason I know it by heart is my karaoke spot got it and I’ve done it enough times that it’s second nature now
Based on my experience with this song and crowds, yes, people know the lyrics. No, they do not know them as well as you would think based on the song being top 2 for months.
Oct 17, 2022song only blew up cuz the hook
i still love steve tho
Oct 17, 2022The hater in me is like WHERE THE F*** DID THE HAH EMOJI GO but that’s f***ed up in all seriousness he does deserve better

D DotKTT told me he was the next Frank Ocean though
No one in the real world knows Frank Ocean so possibly
Oct 17, 2022Crazy because crowds at rap concerts know every word n hook n verse. And people told me hiphop was the genre without substance

scooplowkey though if im an artist im not trusting the dumbass crowd to know anything outside of the huge hooks to the hits
i remember being at a gig where kendrick was trying to get the crowd involved in singing For Sale and it was awkward af lol
