This is a good thing for Black youth if true :manny:



I don't know of any streamers on some street shyt.



I don't listen to drill rap but as a outsider drill seems to be regional while streamers have nationwide appeal. What I mean by regional is most drill rappers don't have a following outside of whatever city they live in.

Drill rap not the only gene of rap.

I agree, streamers can get bigger than rappers. Streaming and SM is the new "selling dope". Only thing is, theres not penitentiary chances involved.

Brother don’t ever disrespect real trappers like that smh. Them nikkas ain’t flipping no fukking packs. And nikkas who flipping packs ain’t streaming.

'celebrity' has always been gatekept.

being able to attain a level of fame as a black youth simply by having personality and being interesting is a double-win, because not only does it elevate them, but in order to be a marketable product for streaming there are a bunch of the normal trappings (pun intended) required for black celebrity in music that just won't work. They can't be excessively vulgar, market sex, violence or drugs as their primary focus, there's a measure of profanity-checking that occurs for advertisers.

As backwards as it seems, it's lowkey a much better option for young black kids to aspire toward and look up to than say, your average rapper or ball player a Ja Morant :hubie:


I am not a parent and never intend to be, but looking at it from that lens, definitely preferable to have kids looking up to regular dudes with personality and artistic goals over deciding the only way to get seen and have the lifestyle they wish for is to start selling powder to their own, or killing their own :yeshrug:

Na, liking black people just became more acceptable and more black people started watching streamers and YouTubers. Not rappers at all and shouldnt box em in since nikkas would get mad if white folks boxed em in like that. Let black people live and exist in multiple areas without being labeled one thing.
