Her music is fine for her demo

Group think is a crazy thing y’all made this harmless lil chick public enemy number 1

lol @ it being groupthink when people find her trash, but not groupthink to like this non rapping chick because drake made her famous and she twerks...she's trash, for gen z, millennials, gen alpha, and beyond

 

[RennisDeynolds]

The quality of the show has declined

The new acts have terrible music, don’t have the same reach as stars, they can’t perform well, for some reason BET hasn’t done a good job of honoring 90’s/00’s vets the way the show did 70’s/80’s vets 15+ years ago.

That said, we still need a thread cuz people gonna show up for the fukkery regardless

BET Awards truly died off when they gave the black girl who organized the INTERNATIONAL WOMENS MARCH a rushed 10 seconds of acknowledgement before kicking things over for Future to harmonize "Molly Percocet" in Masks Off


Just pure unabashed embarrassing behavior

Then why does she have fans who support her and have her numbers high on streaming charts?

She's an obvious industry plant signed to the son of the head of Universal Music. As inorganic as you can get.

She's the biggest one since Chance The Rapper. Does anybody even remember him lol

Who cares who she signed to? That’s not a gotcha many rappers are signed to 10K. Lol and yeah she signed thats the point of signing to a label to be pushed she’s likable and knows how to create social media engagement.

I’m from the Bronx. Shortie had a buzz here. I heard of her before she popped. There’s a lot of female rappers in the drill scene and beyond buzzing in the city.

You see it

These Niccas highly sus complaining about ice spice or big latto for obvious reasons. Women rap is partly about shakin ass, let these heaux be themselves for our benefit

On the micro maybe. But as you get older and see the bigger picture, you see how "they" are pulling strings right in our face with who and what they promote hard.


All these young female rappers and not one that is outside of the "ratchet" stereotype. Balance is gone (for men too).

 

[MisterMajesty]

It's wild to think that we may have reached the point that Pimp C was warning us about.

Social commentary really is absent in the songs nowadays.

Ice Spice gets 3 songs but they only wanted to give Busta 2 minutes for his lifetime achievement speech

What he say?

because talent has never been the make or break for chart success
