21 Savage was just the “Issa knife” guy to most people until I Am > I Was

snippets and interviews or if he posts about any music

Every artist has that initial jump in attention when ppl first find out about em and he leveraged it. He had more buzz last year cuz he dropped like three albums in the span of 12 months + feature on a drake album, and they all hit.

Whether or not he's able to momentum is another question. Most rappers have a peak popularity then stagnate. He been huge for what like 2-3 years now? It's rare to stay relevant like that for longer, unless you're like Drake. At any rate he's an established big name rapper now.

yeah his name is established but his sound is already dated. dude sounds like he's stuck in 2021 still

his style is old now and it isn't cool anymore. it's been done to death and there's new s*** out now that's cooler

ofc if he can rlly level up, show some artiststry fr fr, and change his sound in a cool way, then what i'm saying is totally irrelevant. idk if i have faith in him doing that tho

Drake fought so hard to be taken seriously & somehow parlay his memehood into something that works for hi.

I guess we disagree cuz I think he's updated his sound since 2021. Much darker/rougher, and it looks like 2093 continuing that trend.

bro said parlay

Drain gang is a meme again

What do you call the start?

The I Came From Nothing days, or after 1017 Thug

Cause after hearing 2 Cups Stuffed, I was hooked

It would have to be 1017 Thug and earlier cause after that, Stoner dropped and he was outta here

I'm struggling to think of uzis meme. They somehow seemed very organic at the begining during and before lir1

I guess uzi was 2015 though

Fell imo

2 cups stuffed sure but when they let out he signed to 1017 was a day before 1017thug and duflocka.

I started showing everyone him the day they said he signed, blasted it everyday in the weight room/gym class and somehow my high school was all about it. Everyone blasted fell off dfr2 allllllllll day for awhile.

When I got to college I feel like I had to legit fight people over whether he was trash or a prodigy lmao especially with lifestyle blowing up. I knew 1 dude who was with me and that was it until Jeffery (not even the slime seasons)

Meme artist - Lil Nas X

If you heard lifestyle for the first time and felt nothing then you arent human.

Bad and boujee verse maybe?

And their dance moves at the time

Meme and mid - Ice Spice

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 ms

Uzi blew up 2 years prior but that did make them a full superstar

I was hearing some vs the world tracks on the radio but thats nothing before bad n boujie

I f***ed with it but a lot of people treated it like a joke song. I remember the top comment of the music video was “i can’t wait for the English version”

Listen, if you didn't get it then you didn't get it but Thug was always dropping bangers.

between rodeo and astroworld is when travis scott became frat rap i would not say you were cool for listening to him then lol

then again i literally started with travis scott owl pharaoh so maybe i’m just being pretentious

peak travis scott for me in days before rodeo to rodeo. after that it’s frat rap. although there’s gems sprinkled in

Man what

Trav ain't anything like frat rap

yea
