All Star
RIght,and then i think he said J Cole was in that superstar range or i may have misheard that.
Future i will say hands down is a bigger star than J Cole,i dont give a damn what the sales say.
then you got Joey Badass talking about stars can be groomed,and then mentioning Playboi Cartie..
this new generation of "stars" are manufactured,which is the very reason they not true superstars to me.
true stars are born,those are the ones that just stand out on every track they own,every video they in,when they talk you listen.....most these rappers dont fit the criteria and are stars based on hype through marketing, and false socia media narratives.
matter of fact any nikka who wasnt hot in they own city before they got on,should damn near be disqualified as being a true star.
If you take sales out of the convo then you are just stating your opinion breh. Sales = Demand in any business ever lol.
.

.....the sales not matching just means Future needs to do some work in appealing to audiences that purchase albums,or else he'll have to continue to have big sales numbers based on streams.
.....but yeah as far as transcending hiphop,outside of Drake i wouldnt say any of these new nikkas out of the current generation do....but Drakes the only one who navigates as a non hiphop artist and can exist as a safe pop star
...at least among anybody else near his tier.
