pon de replay is a great pop song though it's a big factor in its success

i think teyana is a wonderful singer but i don't think she's made a great pop song in a similar sense. she doesn't have to, but it's gonna affect her monetary success cus of the way this music stuff goes

oh my bad, didn’t realize Teyana signed within the last few years. silly me, here i was thinking she signed to Pharrell in the 00s before signing to GOOD in 2012. little did i know that she was actually unsigned until the streaming era.

this video is a wonderful time capsule of some of the 2000s

Not even saying def jam/good did the most amazing job at promoting her

But they definitely did something, like they even did the whole break the album to ep thing just for plays and playlisting

GOOD Music has to be one of the worst labels to work for. Dead and flat like Kanye’s energy. She would so much better with XO.

Such a bad point I don’t even know where to start

Im not sure. Why do you think?

*i lick the label’s boot & have no rebuttal

Exactly my point

Xo ? Lol

Not XO lmao

doja scat part 2

best example i can give is ant clemons

not signed to GOOD but wasnt popping until ye cosigned him and he’s starting to get spins & clout bc he put out a really good album

if teyana was more involved with ktse and promoted it properly she’d be in a better position

at the end of the day ktse was a good album that she s*** on at every turn and released a mediocre follow up. she said in the lead up she was involved in every step of “the album” and picked her producers, etc. she fumbled the bag hard

Let’s not go far. What you’re telling me is that since Kanye signed in the early 2000’s he shouldn’t use twitter to promote his work?

I seriously hope you’re trolling

Except Cyhi Desiigner Kacy Hill and Teyana lol

Lmao 1 video got covered on shade room blogs and s*** bc it was basically a baby reveal

ye put desiigner on pablo, blew him up, performed with him, and remixed one of his biggest songs what else you want him to do lmfao

Y’all should ask yourselves some questions before making judgement

1) John Legend
2) Tony Williams
3) Kid Cudi
4) Francis and the Lights
5) 070 Shake

If someone in a similar circumstances as you can do it then why can’t you do it?

They hate on industry plants but want artists to be spoon fed

Is that not marketing tho ?

Her video on we made it was also marketing especially since it was the start of quarantine. She was also on front pages of streaming services when her album was dropped. They put on playlist. They spent time on Twitter dropping silly tweets like this

Again not saying that they did the best job at marketing her

But the blame can't FULLY be on them, her music really just wasnt hitting

Easy as that and that’s okay

Drake and Makonnen lol
