J. Cole went platinum without promo like Adele sold 3 million fw with no promo. Like everyone does what they do without promo :mjlol:.

Flying around in private jets with crews to visit people, buying homes, flying people to the house he bought, commcials, like 5-6 singles pushed even a year after the release, expensive videos and then we're not even going to mention the 5 years before the album when they were building what he is now or the huge staff involved with the album.

Trap at one point was Fading, when Kendrick dropped GKMC in 2012, but lo and behold, trap pushed new acts like Rich Homie Quan, Future, and Young Thug to counteract the success of K. Dot and Cole.

Now, you go these acts trying to downplay them 2 and think that a non trap avenue is non existent. :laugh:

Cole sold nearly 1.5 million of his last joint, but somehow he ain't a superstar and no one play his music :mjlol:

This trap shyt is dying.

It'll be out of here by 2018

2017 it'll be frowned upon

Labels about to look for a different sound to push.

Thats thanks to nikkas like j cole and kendrick.

J cole went plat no promo they see that shyt can get pushed

Kendrick although TPAB is underappreciated at the moment people will look back and see the impact it will truly have.

Trap is cool for the clubs i get that but outside of there its really not enjoyable. Its forgettable. This whole era has bred 0 classics. 0 0 classic albums. 0 classic beats 0 classic tracks. 0 legendary producers shyt is horrible.

Where the hell is sonny digital?
nikka making beats for a transgendered anita baker sounding nikka makkonen.

This the worst era rap has seen since the early 80s where nikkas was sounding like they was yelling into the mic through a bedroom window and the mic was in the kitchen :snoop: (thank god for rakim)

You gotta go through bad to get to good. What ever comes next will be the best era ever

You were right.

With Ross & Jeezy both catching bricks and Gotti struggling to get a release date that sound is being phased out. The younger generation of southern artists can't be considered trap artists.
