So thugga flopped? (16,181)

[GzUp]

I doubt it, y'all really overestimate his appeal. He's a terrible rapper, that moan screaming he does is a turn off to many, and he doesn't appeal to many females nor a wide enough age range to blow (dudes like drake, Kendrick, Wayne, TI, cole, etc all had a much wider appeal)...i really don't see how y'all can't be objective and recognize dude is not the cup of tea for a mass audience.

Ya those are great points.

On him not being a great rapper.. I think the reason he will be big will be off the strength of something that just sounds nice, like the melody of a song... something like lollipop.. to me he is hit or miss... there's songs of hum on here who people love but I don't like but then I hear some shyt that just sounds nice.

From what im seeing, alot of these kids in school are playing his shyt, so im guessing he has the audience most rappers want.

I mean it is possible he just doesn't blow for the reasons you've said but from what I read he makes music pretty fast and that will help him.

Idk but I thought that song should I from thugga was pretty dope.

I've just heard rich gang 1 and 2the thus past week , my first time hearing him.

baby aint gonna be much in the mood

[Booker T Garvey]

same thing happened to chief keef, they played him so much in the clubs and he trended so much on twitter you'd have thought he would do thriller numbers

album dropped and it went triple pocket lint...dropped from the label just a few months later

these cats have strong followings on social media so they can sell advertising through their instagram and twitter accounts

these labels just care about their following online, they're just marketing firms at this point anyway, music business is dead

this has nothing to do with Thug as an artist

Tyler only sold 40k and has been building a fan base for 5 years

people just don't buy anything these days

Tyler isn't supposed to replace Lil Wayne though. Nobody is sitting on here fronting like they got their ear to the streets, saying if you ain't checking for Tyler, you're a lame.

Cats did all that and more for Young Thug. If these clowns didn't spend the last year dikk riding Thug so hard, this would be a non-issue. Like Tyler. But they built this guy up to be more than he actually is, then he does Smilez and Southstar reunion numbers. It's an L any way you look at it.

He didn't sell but he's still gonna be all over the radio regardless

I'm not a fan personally but u guys are getting a bit overzealous thinking this will be the end of YT.

 

[Starski]

The "streets" fail to support their artists again

You would think every trap rapper is a star listening to dudes on here but thugga can't outsell a dude like fashawn with all that promo and gay trolling controversy. Literally selling his ass for nothing.

How much did the Ecology do? loved that and Barter but would not expect that to do more than 10k first week.

Tyler sold 57k first off
N he way better offf than thugger
He independent to the fullest unlike thugga
Hes more of a tec nine type of nikka.
Tyler tours got his own radio station n shyt so either way he's still good
Thugga? He prob got a 34$ check n coupons to pathmark since he got so many nikkas in his pocket
GOLFWANG nikka
