Travis Scott has received backlash over the lack of lyrical substance across his career and especially recently with the release of UTOPIA
However, man like Carti has been releasing music about nothing (hide it in my sock ?? Molly my bean ????) for half a decade now but everyone seems to be okay with it
What makes Carti’s poor content acceptable ? Is it because he works with meme producers (Pierre Bourne and wake up filthy) ?
it isn’t necessarily just the lack of substance and lyrical content for Travis, it’s that he’s painfully generic and injects little to no personality into any of his vocal performances whatsoever
it’s even worse because some references came out and some of these verses he didn’t even write at all, and instead just copy and pasted lyrics from it with no changes whatsoever lmao
Carti in between his vocal pitch shifts, ad libs and changing inflections, it’s all very unique and standout and you can tell that it’s Carti just how he utilizes his voice alone, which makes up for his lack of lyrical content
i still think he gets a lot of grace on this site anyways though cause niggas like to d***ride
He learned from the best
I wouldn’t say Rocky raps about nothing
Especially on carti’s level
they like his aesthetics more so he gets away with it
wtf is a meme producer
It's because Carti doesn't try to mask the fact he's not lyrical with bells and whistles, ear candy, grand production like Travis
