well then to use his words, “fans” who don’t even listen to your current music yet have the strongest opinions

Hip-hop is anytime Vince Staples says something obnoxious in an interview

People that react this way to an artist saying something I dont take of fans of the genre and art as much because dictating how someone should feel is odd to me. Especially from people that dont make music. Vince has called out the streaming cycle devaluing music his entire career. him not choosing his favorite song he makes less than a penny for isnt shocking in any conceivable way.

"gimmicks up bud, change your whole personality youve been presenting for over a decade"

By people you mean Twitter and by react you mean respond to his antagonisms. You get the fans you deserve.

like this is an absurdly dumb take from anyone who listens to his music to act like Vince was just a gangbanger who saw a get rich quick scheme in music.

nah i copied a post

i think there’s definitely a middle ground where yes he’s been presenting that personality for a while, but it shouldn’t negate engaging with his perspective. it’s just people are engaging with his perspective from an offended lense based on his personality or not engaging because “that’s just Vince”

I think both sides of the conversation don’t allow for the middle ground where a conversation can occur about what he’s actually trying to say. everyone tryna prove either they know Vince or they know better than his own perspective lol

the op post are damn near worse than twitter users but keep going

I am referring to posters in this thread and many posters on ktt that fill the music section with threads about blue face having sexual relations with dogs , tmz and twitter topics not being fans of hip hop. People that often dont discuss lyrics and focus on beef or drama. But thanks for your clarifications

I'm baffled this is still a conversation LOL

Nigga literally said "I make too much music I can't pick a favorite" and made a light very Vince-like joke and somehow people are pressed and literally making the s*** a trending topic

And 85% of the people complaining are white. Just wanted to throw that in just cause.

Suddenly talking about him being a "gangbanger" , saying they are tired of the non chalant gimmick and that he is pretentious. When they felt that way whether he choose a favorite song here or not they just been waiting to jump him with their keyboards. People in this thread saying he fell off since a 11 year old album

It's like a few including myself have expressed itt already, people just want to be upset about something in the modern internet era. Always been the case, but that s*** is peak running rampant right now.

"I make too much music I can't pick a favorite" if this was all he said. No one would have a problem with it. He made a bad a***ogy, joke or not, and people are calling it corny.

Ya are making it deeper than what it is. No one's saying bro needs to be canceled

you can be proud of flipping burgers too

It's only a bad a***ogy to yall because you look down on people working at Mcdonald's.

And it's obviously deeper than what it is, because people won't stop talking about it and it's literally trending nigga

Wait wat

No it's a bad a***ogy because music =/= food lol.

The McDonald's line cook doesn't treat the big Mac as a personal artistic expression like an artist treats making a song born from their creativity

And ? Trivial things trend all the time

Its not a bad a***ogy when his point is how devalued his art is

"hes not flipping burgers"

well no s*** but being extremely vulnerable for less than a penny per stream and for someone on the internet to call it "mid " "trash" and not really listen to the lyrics is emotionally toughter than flipping a mcdonalds burger and someone says 'this burger wasnt good" cause he aint make the cow
