White people suck

This right out of the post Malone playbook.

The song was already categorized as hiphop. Due to that, it was already charted on hiphop charts and is considered a hiphop song, not R&B so it’s submitted to hiphop categories. I get their complaints, but they should have made sure their music was categorized correctly on release

I guess that's why he came out and said this s*** about not being Hip Hop then? I mean the only hip hop aspect is elements of the production but that's about it lol. Not his fault that the charts put him in these categories

I think million dollar baby is a hiphop song and that’s why he released it that way, but because of that being his biggest song, people think he’s a hiphop artist so he was getting ahead of it and it blew up in his face

how is it a hip hop song if he doesn't rap

Instant L foh

Tommy Richman giving me Zelenskyy vibes in this rap s*** don’t ask me why

Hip hop soul

Black music isn’t just hip hop bruh
What the hell?

His last album is pretty great imo. Don’t like how he’s tryna denounce hip hop but his music is definitely r&b & funk he doesn’t rap

Badu, Lauren Hill and Mary J are considered Hip-Hop so there are exceptions

Lauren being more hybrid since she does rap and sing

The insulting part of this is dude was quick to denounce hip-hop rather than embracing it

He’s gonna be making country music in 3 years

The grammys can move the song to a different category it should be in the pop category tbh.

The artists themeselves are but they are also singers idk about Erykah though.

That confuses audiences since the song was distributed as hiphop. Same way Lil Nas X put his song on streaming as country and it created controversy when it was moved to hiphop. If you want it in that category, then get your label to make sure the distributor releases it in that genre

how come people let him slip thru all the cracks on here lol. first its 'obviously hes not a rapper this is very obvious its obvious' then its 'he meant a different thing he didnt say what he said' then its 'oh its his team its not him its his team' like whats the end benefit of doing this over a cracker whos gonna drop this side of his fanbase the moment those pop country features start returning calls? you know you can like the song and still call him an appropriating piece of s***? hes not gonna stop making music if you do lol its his job

hes making country music as we speak its just not out. watch him getting on with posty on their 'anti-hater' alt-pop-rap s***

quote me where i said / implied that internet buddy

im still around but not as much lol

going out of your way to say "i'm not a rapper, im a singer actually" is just a nicer way to say "i'm making music, not black music"

You can’t be this goddamn obtuse

He got the worst team imaginable between this and not putting his singles on the album lmao.

Well it's a hip hop song not a rap song lol
