What are some "Industry Plants" that didn't work out?

[KEEPITTRILLA]

By industry plants I mean like rappers who got a big budget, crazy features, major push by their label, but didn't work out at all and never caught on. I just wanna ask because so many people think that all these good rappers getting big pushes and shyt means they don't make good music or something

OF blew up independent. Minus Frank (who wasn't even really apart of their initial hype) their projects came out on an independent label.

Tyler's manager was emenims old manager and frank ocean was packaged with odd future.

Sounds like a plant to me

Nah. OddFuture was the real deal. O. F. was more universal than just Tha Trap. And that was part of their point as Artists




I'd say Troy Average is one in current motion. Saigon, even though he's very talented. Red Cafe. Asher Roth, Mac Miller, Macklemore, Mark Ronson, David Guetta, Slim Thug, Zro, and alot of others
