People say certain musicians keep up a fake image to appeal to fans, or at least a somewhat fake/altered image/background. Who do you think doesn't or at least has a minimal amount of inauthenticity?
Do you care about it?
A lot of topics fall under this bubble, including the Drake culture vulture, and his pop star criticism, most hip hop artist faking their gangstar image, etc.
I think all the popular hip hop artist are somewhat inauthentic in a way, even the ones who try to low-key portray a image that says "I am fully authentic"
I also low-key dont care abut ghostwriting unless the clear majority of someones music is someone else pen. it doesn't affect how I enjoy the music, but how I view them as a rapper
Some of the biggest rappers nowadays are Carti Uzi and Travis
And they all rap street s***. We dont care no more bruh
I hate to add to the drake hate train cause i really like him
but he's been rapping about shooting people and toting guns a lot recently and he's the biggest artist in the world
same goes with travis talking about trapping or any street s***
so people dont care anymore
rick ross proved it doesn't matter
as long as you got flow
and btw rick ross is f***ing sick at rapping

when travis drops those weird, sporadic
" The feds are watching me, listening to my phone calls" bars
it's like he's playing Secret Agent or some s***
