I always wonder what would’ve happened to Pusha T’s Career if Kanye never picked him up. Remember the Clipse final album flopped BADLY and unlike the previous one(which also flopped)the hipster blogger pitchfork crowd thought it was mid too. There was no real momentum. Then lucky enough he signs with Kanye during the beginning of one of his most successful eras ever with MBDTF, gets the look on one of his iconic singles(which premiered in prime time at the VMA’s) Runaway, and the rest is history.

Despite all of this this though, being on a iconic Kanye album, being on all those GOOD Friday and Cruel summer tracks, his own shyt wasn’t popping. Then over the course of the next 3 years, he drops flopped single after flopped single after flopped single.
Who knows, maybe he links back up with Pharrell and inspires him to be more active, thus resulting in similar success.

Honestly, 98% of Pusha's "fanbase" is the White hipster crowd. "Don't Like" remix is probably the only time he's been heard in a Black clubs the last 15 years.

Pusha in the Clipse is one of my personal favorites. But him solo...ehhhh. Especially the way he goes out of his way to pick the weakest beats from the best producers.

That being said, I can see why he's not a "hot" ticket tourwise🤷🏾‍♂️
This some bullshyt lmao

Production issues for a rapper with absolutely no swag and no stadium or arena music :bryan:

He is/was a niche rapper that stood next to and beefed with big dogs that has people overrate his legacy

Dudes got mad when people said you can easily tell the story of rap without the Clipse/pusha t

nikkas really trying to say he's a top 50 rapper all time :heh:

You can leave me out of that. I don't do the stan shyt. I cant stand Drake. I just don't think Pusha is all that great himself :francis:

shyt Slim Thug would be ranked higher than Pusha on an all-time list.

Webbie>>>>>Pusha T
Webbie come on bruh :mjlol:

When you can’t discredit anything I’ve said so you have to deflect :dead:

Everything you said is complete bullshyt. Drake wouldn't even co-sign that nonsense. Push has achieved more than anybody ever expected. He does one thing and one thing only, but better than pretty much anybody (you can argue for Hov, but he moved away from the dope boy stuff a long time ago for the most part). Not many create an entire 10+ year career in music doing 1 thing.

But by all means, keep your fukkboy narrative going :heh:

Webbie is 1 chromosome away from legally being considered a special. All his fans definitely fall into that category :mjlol:

Webbie for all his hilarious moments has an actual authentic cultural built fanbase that has supported him for 20 years..:dude does like two shows a year all through out the south and cities like STL, Cincy and Naptown just off the strength…like the polar opposite of the hypebeast cacs that make up the bulk of push’s core demographic

But I agree…homie does seemed touched at times :russ:

Imagine you're just walking down the street minding your business and a Webbie concert at the local middle school gym lets out, and you're suddenly surrounded by an army of specials :bryan:

Speaking of, what happened to him? I know he never was a big limelight type rapper but at least he used to be visible during
some scenes (ie award shows, breakfast club interviews etc). Just think, his last Breakfast Club interview was like 9-10 yrs ago! Felt like it
was yesterday. Remember saying "cant wait until he comes back on"...
