"The chickens have come home to roost." :yeshrug:

Mainstream rap has mostly been about stealing, robbing, hustling, coming up, etc for many years now and as a result it's not 'cool' for most rap fans to pay money for albums anymore.

People like Wiz are going Gold off of white fans. Same thing w/ Em, Kanye, Jay going platinum off white fans. Their concert demographics tell the same story.

This is why producers, rappers would rather collab with acts like Katie Perry, Bieber, etc
