He's got his own wave, and is doing well. that Dave East/Styles P tape was received well. "hit'' records and mainstream appeal ain't for everyone. and that shouldn't always be the focus. that's why guys like Royce Da 5'9 is still around.
for sure. look at yachty was hot for like 2 years. meanwhile dave been around for like 10 years and continues to grow
Yup. Dave in his 30s and is still able to drop mixtapes, get TV slots, drop collabs with legends, smash celebrity chicks etc.
Who can we honestly say will be able to pull this off 5 to 10 yrs down the line in their 30s?
Lil Yachty? Uzi? Gunna? Lil GotIt? Lil Xan? Blueface?
And he isn’t either. That’s the problem. The label trying to market him as a pretty boy rapper. He wants to market himself now as a superthug, meanwhile he was a genuine dude who grew up playing ball and just got caught up in some bad situations before he figured out rap was his way outI'm not sure who his fan base really is..
