“I didn’t know what 88rising was gonna be, but I thought it was gonna be better than anything else because there was nothing like it at the time,” he says. “Still, I had never put out a record, helped make a song, signed an artist or anything like that. I was just trying to build a home on the internet to celebrate Asian creatives that I liked.” Safe to say, he succeeded in his mission.

yeah pretty much

it was his last album with them now he got his own label and stuff

Jin need to shake up the game

TL;DR 88rising still doing good
Also Keith Ape isn't dead after that hospital thing either

10/11 investigate pearl harbor

aside from rich brian dat stick and history, keith ape was the only one i rly fw from that group and ion think he was rly fully in anyway

Did Kieth ape pass away?

It g ma !

i’m just saying what i heard and read

i know they made him play a festival when he was having health problem the same ones he had a couple years ago when he was doing youtube still

and there’s stuff from yukon where he hints towards them but that’s also just speculation

Rich Brian. Man. How could I forget the classic vid

best asian rapper tbh but he quit rapping this year

Thats wild, why is he quitting? I need to listen

his career yes, himself no

i think it’s cause he more of a trapper than a rapper and being in the spotlight was making it hot for him

my friend who has a clothing brand sent him a huge box of clothes and sneakers for promo and then a week after he posted on his ig that he was quitting music lmfao

I remember this guy. Did he even drop a tape

he dropped like 5 eps and 3 albums and hella singles since aero 3 dropped last year

wish he would stick to the lofi hyphy sound he had going but he’s more on some like bedroom pop rnb type s*** now

Damn, he didn't make a splash at all.

good thing idc about sales or pitchfork reviews

I just thought he clearly had the sound to get an audience. I def sent one of those early Thizzler joints to my dude who is a Youngboy fan

Dude retired already

J hope the best

should be bigger but he asian so no one cares
