Keef but he don’t really care about fame. He just about him and his niggas.

T.I

I'm from the UK, everyone knows him, he's super popular worldwide, but he just doesn't get that mention today as one of the goats

You usually see Jayz, Nas, Kanye, Em

I think T.I is up there

being a stan of his through that time was so frustrating cause he could've easily been one of the more famous rappers if he woulda kept making Finally Rich type music (even past that era he had a mixtape with Thug, Songs with Kanye, and a rumoured track with Drake that he just lost)

But looking back it was so goat how he just completely stepped away from the mainstream and did whatever he wanted to do musically

@PNWlitty @Teal_ do you guys agree?

Jay Electronica (his own fault tbh for not releasing Act 2 when he shouldve)
Kate Bush
Janelle Monae
Charli XCX

Lupe...

The original planned 3 disc album LUPEND after The Cool would’ve made him a platinum selling artist....

He also turned down some major offers after he left Atlantic

J. Holiday really got completely forgotten and it's sad

his songs are very of their time tho so maybe it makes sense

young thug

fetty wap

threw it all away for an entanglement

Ya Boy (dude was the best kept secret on the west in 2005/2006 after game. Had the Dre cosign

Omar Cruz (same as above, dude had crazy mixtapes, was a latino lyrical madness)

Jay Rock ( was already blowing up before Kendrick, K-Dot) and was the one TDE was hoping for in that New West movement around 06, 07) First album dropped way to late what made his buzz go away for most part

Bishop Lamont (Man ... he was the ONE one aftermath man. Dude had such a buzz and got the crazy beats from DRE and DRE’s inhouse producers (Focus, Khalil and more). Check the mixtapes man. But DRE shelved the album and buzz went away.

Papoose ( Same as above, Buzz was really big with also crazy tapes , but First album took to long due to label issues and s*** and buzz was gone)

cosign

cosign man. To much s*** going on between them

Janelle Monae is still pretty famous but I feel u bc its not really for her music

But I feel like her next album will be her biggest

Fugees (as a group)

He had super big run in like 06-08, so he had his moment. I just think nowadays his reputation is tanked, therefore knocking his status down. Shame though cuz nowadays he's only selling like 23k fw...even though he still makes solid music and blends in well with the modern scene

Cousin Stizz

Tbh i get what he’s saying.

Wayne rap skills took a nosedive after he got out of prison and wouldnt bounce back till years later

If wayne kept rappin like he did pre prison he doesnt become a joke which means Birdman doesnt hold C5 hostage for 5 years(still did very well).

t.i.? never heard of him

YNW Melly

dudes music fell off a cliff s*** sad

Schoolboy Q

Hope so. I think Dirty Computer was definitely overlooked in the mainstream when it shouldve gotten as much recognition as an album like Lemonade or Anti

I definitely agree Dirty Computer was a great album

It might seem weird timing but I feel like Janelle Monae is gonna be an A List celeb this decade
