I mean nobody with ears can deny that he’s fire but the whole “he’s musically in 2024” “he’s gonna lead the decade in quality and influence” takes feel a little too extreme and giving dude an premature crowning

I thought Gotit was carrying the torch with an evolved “Thug sound” in 2018

But then the music got stagnant around the pandemic

Kayo, Nudy, Yeat.. it’s not just yeat

Everybody knew nas was gonna be that nigga in ‘91 bro lol. Had a great feature at 16.

recency bias

And not every artist is like that

d***eating went wild

it's too early to critique em, but not too early to say he'll lay the blueprint for the next decade and no one compares

wild.

He has no growth potential so it makes sense

How?

His sound is forward in the current times.

cookie monster

It’s not. It would’ve been forward 2-3 years ago. Now it’s just the current type beat for that subgenre of rap lol

Cant wait for next year when we moved on and everyone already forgot abot yeat

I think your're just blinded by fandom/hype rn

How can it be too early to say anything negative or critcal like his performance on stage is ass, or that he has a long ways to go to even level up and evolve to that next level yet it's just the right time to make statements like "he will lay the blueprint for the next 8 years in music and also no one comes close to how good he is and everyone else peaked and fell off they're just not yeat."

it's also not really that forward like ur saying it's pretty time appropriate if anything

I will never forget you guys saying he’s a wavier Future and mad people on here agreed

Remember
Shiesty

Sorry if I just did

Ehh he got locked up. If he was free he’d still be running things

I mean yeah Future is 40 and washed without a good album this decade dropping Valentine duds

He could bounce back though. Never know. Still going on features

Real.

Didn't kno.

We'll see what happens then when he gets out.

Hopefully he don't pull a schmurda

I included him in the breakdown, he’s a beast but proved to be his own worst enemy

Future being past his prime does not make him a wavier Future though. At all. Lmao

Hes only "working in the same production wave" because of Carti. Listen to his music before and after WLR. Its almost like an entirely different artist.

Carti was prematurely crowned as “HipHops’s restless prince in complex magazine

And that was two years before his self titled

And now he’s one of the best rappers on the planet

When artists sign development deals they get called plants

Yes, Carti popularized the production on WLR. Trippie Redd also did a rage album. Neither Carti nor Yeat are producers and their vocal stylings are not closer together than Yeat's and Future/Thug's. All of these things are true.

Somebody posted a clip of yeat doing thugger harambe voice ITT

Some rappers are just terrible performers

Not everyone can be Kanye or Death Grips

Fr the switch up between 4L and U2M is crazy

Or was 4L Carti era
