I don’t wanna hate on the youngin and I know he’s propped up as being the new J Cole for the Gen Zers but I just don’t see it with Cordae.

The nikka can rap but his music is extremely surface level. When you dissect his music, is he really saying anything that sticks with you that grabs your attention? It’s just background music.

Tyler has personality.

This is the difference in being associated with something

cordae still needs to establish an identity in hip hop

The offspring of Snoozeberry Cole dropped a dude, shocking.

Meanwhile Baby Keem aka Kendrick Lite dropping high concept videos and album getting burn

fukk no

:mjlol:

The only reason Keem did better cause of kendrick popping up on song after disappearing for years. Plus more lead time on promoting the single. Also cause Brent Faiyaz saved his ass, thanks to tiktok.

I don’t hear that album anywhere.

Nas did 56K first week...yeah 21 is dispsoainting but idk if cordae has a fanbase like that

the only guys that do numbers today have dedicated fanbasess...also prolly 10k of that 21k Is from eminem stans playing the em track being honest
Brehs fanbase is 30+ yr old brehs who appreciates lyrics and quality hip-hop

His own generation (21) ain't really tryna hear what he's rapping about when terrible rappers like NBA YoungBoy exist to fulfill their needs

Every rapper is not going to be a superstar :yeshrug: he’s cool, nothing special. The Dreamville roster is getting him out of here…. Respectfully speaking as a member of :flabbynsick: gang
