U should look at the charts. Even though Future's music was "hot in the streets" and the clubs. His music never broke the top 10 with the exception of his opening week with DS2 and WATTBA.

Hell, the way you nikkas talk about Future he really should be platinum right now. But DS2 and WATTBA hasn't done it. Hell they haven't even gone GOLD yet..

Here is the reality of the situation. Future is NOT big in EVERY genre :mjlol:

If that was the case Future would be performing at the AMA's, Billboard Music Awards, and a whole bunch of industry shyt and be winning every award possible.

But he isn't..he never made an impact..especially on the charts.

Sure he made noise in hip-hop but that's where it stops..

I swear y'all need to listen to other music besides rap.

But I bet you if Future was nominated mad times, people would be all :blessed:

My GOAT is Nas, but he never won anything. But his music is timeless.

Future is just for a limited range of new nikkas to listen to. Most old school MCs don't fukk with excess autotune.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
Pitchfork and The Fader LOVE Future.
cause people care about magazines in 2015... don't believe pitchfork and fade's hype about themselves... nobody walking the streets talking about no damn fader magazine at lunch... when's the last time someone came up to you talking about pitchfork magazine?

Future is well known by many cacs.

next is.... b-b-b-b-b-b-but record sales in 2015


as if they don't fukking matter... as if billion dollar companies haven't figured out what the coli knows yet... that record sales are dead and mean absolutely nothing in the industry.... the industry only cares about the clubs and the cars





nah brehs.... like dude is saying... record sales will ALWAYS be the defining point of your career TO THE INDUSTRY.... and if you never went gold ever... you aren't known like you think you are


good advice: find a map.. circle your town.. are you known there? can i walk up on any random person and say your name only, and they know you?

how about the whole state?

the next 3 states? the coast? the nation? europe? china? etc etc etc



it's one thing to be known in your town or by a certain demographic... it's another to be known by some random fukk in germany who doesn't even speak english nor listen to your genre

that's the difference between never going gold and 2-3 million world wide like a STAR

Pitchfork and The Fader are literally the most popular hipster music blogs out there.

And several of Futures videos have been put out by Noisey, another hipster music blog.

White people know who Future is.

Best rap song :mjlol:

All Day?was that the wack trap Kanye song or the one with the Beetle?either way,garbage:mjlol:

And since mixtapes was being nominated he got snubbed for Ds2 and 56nights:heh:

Future fans should be proud he didn't sell out to the masses and pander for grammys this time around,gave us pure classic material:blessed:

The pressure shouldn't be on the grammys because they don't know any better,the pressure should be on the hiphop artist who wins,to do the right thing and hand they award over to Future or at least acknowledge him as they accept the award on his behalf....If a white man named Macklemore came close to doing the right thing,i expect a black man or woman to have just a little more integrity than the "devil" right:sas1:? Futures year was undeniable.
