pop smoke had more anthems in a span of 5 months than dave east did in 5 years and his mixtape sold more than dave easts album(prior to death), stop it

Dave East was on a major TV series (Wu chronicles) signed by Nas, been touring for 5 + years, and chicks like him.

The fact that Pop got killed and 3 days later everyone moved on shows u his impact while alive

i think its his fan base (grimey new york rap) is kinda at the flabby stage and they are not the best fan base to have. i remember i was in the other forum and called dave a top five new school rapper. all them nikkas hated and laughed.... yet nobody could even name 5 new school rappers :mjlol:

even a guy with facial deformities (conway) and the same skill level will flop. the thing that boosts dave up is actually when he tries a more modern approach and makes love songs.

Dave may as well take the LL Cool J and Red Hot Tone Lover formula and do a "I Shot Ya" type rap here and there.

not sure who rhtl is but a majority of LL songs were not love songs lol

but on another note, he did hit the hollywood scene just like LL :ehh:
to be honest, if you had the option to act, idek why you would want to be a rapper these days. "fans" are tryhard fake and finicky when they don't even know what they are talking about half the time. most people just skim through it and repeat what others say

They don't know what they are talking about half the time but you're in here cosigning that Dave East isn't more commercially successful because dudes are jealous of his looks :laff:

Dave east is stuck in a space where he's vying for old heads approval, but also not making material that appeals to the kids enough.

He needs to get a crew. NYC rappers tend to do better in his lane if you got a team around you that is talented musically that can build their own fans and you can collaborate on tracks.
