Your comparing an album with all pure sales vs an album using streaming for sales. Not the same at all
P.S.You guys gotta stop doing that

It’s the same relative success
There isn’t a single rapper in the new new school as just naturally gifted or innovative as a mac miller or an asap rocky or a travis

Buddy,no it’s not and it never will be,nobody nowadays is using gas in their car to go pay $19.99 for a Lil Baby album,no matter how popular he is right now.

Billboard s*** is kinda irrelevant at this point.
It's all streams
album sales and song/albums certifications are kinda meaningless in the streaming era tbh
nobody is gonna talk about my turn in a couple years if we keeping it a buck ..
and i say this as someone who thinks lil baby is gonna be huge
Music is consumed differently these days but these guys will never match the impact those late 90s early 00 artists had.
That was the era where you had to actually go buy an album.
How is this related to OP, he's talking about commercial success
There isn’t a single rapper in the new new school as just naturally gifted or innovative as a mac miller or an asap rocky or a travis
That’s a good point but a lot of these new rappers super young. Nba youngboy is 20 and Roddy is 21. The people you just mentioned all dropped most of their best music around 25

That's exactly what I'm talking about.
You good bro?
That's exactly what I'm talking about.

Nas was 17 when he first started recording Illmatic
He was 21 when it dropped.
BIG and Pac had classics under their belts when they died at 25.
These new new niggas ain't got it like the OG's
OP is talking about commercial success and you're talking about "impact"
You good bro?
I said you had to go purchase an album.
Hard sales >>>>> goofy streaming numbers
So let's say "commercial impact" since you need me to be specific
There isn’t a single rapper in the new new school as just naturally gifted or innovative as a mac miller or an asap rocky or a travis
one of these is not like the others

NBA young boy will never drop a genre defining project but ok vro
Asap around his age debuted w LLA
Music is consumed differently these days but these guys will never match the impact those late 90s early 00 artists had.

Also all those guys are way more pop than previous rappers
That’s why Youngboy is so huge, white kids who would never listen to him in the 90s do now
Bruh, White kids loved DMX and Tupac
