He didn't regress, he changed. That's been the constant thread through his whole career. 2015 vs 2013 thug are vastly, almost unrecognizably different. 2017 vs 2015 the same. For some reason with the 2019 change, once he got some real commercial success, people decided he was resting on his laurels. I can bet you every dollar to my name his next solo album won't sound like SMF
hes been inconsistent his entire career. he tried to do different things later on and it didn't work. Stans got complacent and accepted mid. Budget can play a factor as well. Punk might be dope tho
its like he lost his flow and delivery that made him so unique
I agree with your sentiment to a certain degree but ‘just how it is’ isn’t a song I have an issue with, he’s deliberately using a lowkey flow to self reflect, like this song a lot

this dude only has s***ty thug takes
Sometimes an artist is just in a certain bag/zone for a while and thats their style for that period of time and they grow and move on.
Lyor Cohen also has been begging Thug to slow down and polish his albums and this might’ve been him getting more involved with Thug’s music, Lyor was more involved with Culture 1 than any other Migos project and we saw how that did commercially compared to their other joints
man SHUT THE F*** UP all you mfs talking about did young thug regress his sound, new young thug is trash STFU i’m tired of it, man. PUNK will change LIVES, man. just wait on it. b****.
Idk about his d*** usage but he sounds more sober nowadays
I think he’s just matured as a human. Compare his interviews (or lack of) from 2013-2016 ish and he’s different now. I think he’s just grown up and matured more and his music is less crazy and experimental because of it
So Much Fun is great. It’s the stuff after that shows regression.
He’s had his moments but he’s been average ever since
It’s just like future
He was inconsistent from b6-jeffrey. Some of them tapes didnt always hit. He flooded the market and it worked for getting a core fanbase (i guess) but it really didnt work towards growth
All of the tapes and albums from then were fire maybe I’m Up or See No Evil was weaker but I’m Up had Hercules which was nuts
Cuz he became best friends with Future and his influence rubbed off on him greatly.
Same thing happened when Quavo was best friends with Travis for awhile
New thug is better
It's not regress - it's change

Y’all going too deep
He literally put mad niggas on between Slime Season and SMF
He watched niggas he taught to rap… TAUGHT…
Take his style and become commercially successful (quicker then he did)
It was only a matter of time before he switched it up for the $
The one million dollar question we’re all asking ourselves is does he get back in his bag on PUNK
New thug is better

This. I don’t get what everybody else talking about
He has never regressed imo he’s only gotten better

except that Quavo went downhill and Travis is still in his creative bag💀

Quavo On Culture III was the best Quavo we’ve had since like 2017, idk wym.
I’m waiting in Utopia to speak on Trav. Most of his features lately haven’t really been all that impressive to me aside from Durag Activity which he actually murdered.
He has flashes of the old thugger sound like on this
!https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ8UAlP0q-kyeah this was the best song off that project to me
His delivery is more like future’s nowadays what are you talking about?
Apparently thug recorded lil baby first and allowed fewtch to borrow the flow
