I don’t follow or listen to country music. Sounds like you know more than I do

Big X and mexican ot nice

Mexican ot has the same flow every song. shyt got old fast

Y’all gotta stop bringing up that xxx guy in these conversations. I’ve literally never heard any of his songs anywhere when he was alive. And he was only trending when he got beat up for talking shyt or when he abused his girlfriend.

Dude was a total crashout and nothing about him or his music had mainstream appeal. He would have been Lil Durk status at best, not a superstar.

Posters like this is why the coli shyt on anime brehs

You were better off not posting this at all if you had no clue. xxx was him

Superstar status is reserved for those who become household names during their run (Drake, Kanye, Eminem, etc). If there was a popularity tier list, these artists would be S-tier. Durk would be b-tier aka “hot”.

There’s levels to this

Last I checked...Durk has huge features with both those artists you named (outside Em who is irrelevant right now). He collected a Grammy, before his incarceration. Durk got the streets, the youth, and a yt audience.

The industry doesn’t want more drakes and jay z or even Taylor swift

 

[The Pledge]

Central Cee will probably be as closest as they’ll get currently.

Ken Carson killing them streams too

I thought Yeat would have carved a Uzi lane for himself but I guess not.

LAROI might be the closest alive to be like Drake

I dunno.

Plaqueboymax recently dropped his tape

I probably do. I listen to every genre of music.

Yea he was the guy ranting online while foaming out the mouth like a psycho, getting beat up on camera and raping women with clothes hangers when he was alive. A superstar in the making for sure

To address the topic:

The music industry is struggling and changing fast. Streaming has pretty much killed the way things used to be. I think these labels wish they could go back to selling physical copies like CDs and vinyl, because they made more money and people could hold something in their hands.

They’re probably spending a lot of money trying to figure out how to bring back physical sales in some way. But until they can sell a physical album for around $20 and people are willing to pay that, it’s unlikely things will go back to how they used to be. The industry has changed a lot, and it’ll take time and new ideas to get close to what it used to be.

Streaming has been around for a long time probably since 2012.

It’s not streaming imo it’s the culture itself which led to a wide variety of rappers dying (gun violence or drug addiction) and incarceration.

Obviously I don't have the viewcount before his death but

22 million views


45 million views


174 million views


1.2 billion views


His youtube channel has 42 million subscribers.

Dude died at age 20. He was absolutely going somewhere, especially considering he was doing the internet marketing stuff too.
You not hearing his stuff doesn't mean anything. The world is bigger than you.

Most artists in general seem to be pieces of shyt. I hated that lil nikka when he was alive but he was a budding star as was Juice WRLD and Pop Smoke.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Tell rappers to stop doing street shyt

That Ain’t my problem

I liked my tape and vinyl collection.
