Is playboi carti the Jeff hardy of rap?

[Leejh30]

I think this is ironically the perfect comparison to be fair. Jeff hardy while not being the best on the mic, was borderline worshipped by many in the late 2000s because of his cool look and cool ass moves and daredevil stunts, you were not a real one as a kid if you didn’t try to front flip off something onto a family member or friend lol


With playboi carti he isn’t exactly the best lyricist by a long shot, he does however seems to flow well over some of the most interesting and cutting edge beats of the last 5 years I’d say, as well as being a huge trendsetter and tastemaker as well with many (25 and younger) audiences as well, he’s ironically more hip hop in a way than most “traditional” hip hop artist out rn lol.

His first two projects are some of the best works of the last 5 years tbh he’s the only relevant rapper out of that SoundCloud scene besides maybe uzi and id say he’s 10x better than uzi

Memes do't sell 100k first week, and be relevant for 6 years

Talk to these boys, but to be fair the coli is on the older side so I don’t really expect them to keep up with playboi carti all that much

I haven’t watched wrestling in years but if Jeff Hardy came out to the ring in whatever the newest wwe game is and had the first 30 secs of this as his music, I would assume it was his actual theme song

Respect jeff

Exactly and what I like about this type of music is carti isn’t incorporating rock into this because he’s trying to pander to hipsters he’s just genuinely just tryna be innovate

Apparently they do. You just a lost soul who wanna be apart of something. I don’t even think he likes the music he makes he just does it for cash. He’s the modern day Lil B
