:francis:

As a father , i love hearing rappers rap about their seeds cuz i can relate ahunnid percent to them .

from don trip explaining to his son how his mom was keeping him away from his dad out of spite , to brother ali rapping to his son preparing him for life as a black man..

I just think its kinda fishy probably the most famous braggadoctious rapper out today got a kid that he didn't speak about till it was exposed in a diss song.

Grammys are all politics

H.E.R. Won for something that’s not even an album

When you take into account Push had the advantage of the being the first album released where Kanye was going back to digging in the crates and making beats, the PR stunt of using Whitney Picture, the Drake beef and nothing came from the album other than props on the coli and people claiming he has the futile AOTY

He’s still in the same exact place career wise as he was before that album dropped...that’s a flop

Teyana is the only one from GOOD that elevated their career last June

@TheDarceKnight
A flop means that whatever project released disappoints or performs worse than expectations.

DAYTONA exceeded all expectations for Push, so I don't get how anyone can declare it a flop. It was his highest selling 1st week solo album and more than half of those sales were from pure sales meaning his fans were buying the album in addition to the streams he was getting.

And he definitely raised his profile after the success of that album and the Drake Beef. All of pop culture was talking about Pusha-T vs Drake for a good part of that summer after everything went down.

I disagree with him raising his profile. He just got his names mentioned with Drake for awhile

And those 1st week sales were the result of Kanye and controversy

The album didn’t come close to keeping that momentum after the 1st week. It fell completely off the charts

I mean... whoever expects Pusha-T to consistently be on the charts tho? He was getting guest appearances on all kinds of platforms that he typically is never on off of the strength of the project and the Drake beef. He was getting critical acclaim and love from this core fanbase.

Also, over the last year, he's been extremely active and has bodied a ton of features. I didn't even read the OP of this thread because whoever would say dude has been blackballed has to be trolling.

Kanye going full MAGA is probably more of a chink in Pusha's brand than anything else at this point to be honest with you.

Whoever responds to a thread they didn't read the op is trolling.

This is just untrue breh.

Maybe he was never revered as a solo artist, but lots of knowledgeable fans have respected his pen game and enjoyed his work on all of the Clipse albums, as well as his Re-Up Gang work, and his features with Kanye, Kendrick, etc. Push has always had lots of respect from his peers as well as fans, but just never had a solo album that really hit all the way through, despite people really liking some of his solo joints like Numbers on the Board and Alone in Vegas. I even remember people saying he got the better of Jadakiss on Lose Your Life, and that was at a time where Jada was still merking most people on features. Push has always been dope and I think most people have always wanted him to just make better solo albums, which he finally did on Daytona.

And how did Daytona flop? Sales? Streams? I mean do people really care about that these days instead of how the music was? It was a dope album that was mostly acclaimed by casual fans, diehard heads, and also critics.

The biggest criticism you can lay at Push is that he's a one-note rapper that can pretty much only do drug talk. But he does it so well that no one besides Drake stans seem to mind.

All that text just to answer the biggest Lil Wayne stan on here :deadgif:

Features don’t mean extremely active. He put out a 7 song project and a handful of features

You’re talking like he has been on 2013 2 Chainz run

Well we all know supposed industry insider @RichYung is trying to black ball him. This guy went from calling Pusha Top 5 DOA and being the #1 poster in the Daytona thread to pretending Pusha didn't exist once Adidon dropped. nikka literally stopped posting about Push even though B.A. (Before Adidon) he posted about Pusha more than any other rapper.

Interesting. :ld:
