Sh!t's all relative...cause best I can tell "buzz" don't mean sh!t but "trendy at the moment dikkriding props" in this context...I mean when you can just indiscriminately throw actual tangible sh!t that really mean something in the music biz in the bushes...like placements on the biggest song of the summer of any genre, a gold album in 2012/2013, 2nd billing on a major large venue summer tour that has had him rocking in front of crowds upwards of 10Kplus damn near every night for the past 2 months straight, and his own tv show, along with getting his hustle gang movement going (Bobby's "Headband" has been on the charts most of the summer, Dro's "FDB" is getting decent run on urban radio)...all with no proper machine behind him (he's a complete free agent at the moment)...i gotta question what "buzz" even is supposed to mean...he's doing all the shyt that rappers with buzz are HOPING to one day accomplish...publishing checks from #1 songs and money from massive summer tours is real money and the REAL spoils of a successful music career...like all of a sudden that type of sh!t don't count huh ? :heh:

We Still in This
Buggatti Remix
Pour It Up
Blurred lines(number 1 song in america)
plus Upper Echelon
yet he still has no buzz at all,

How is that even possible :mindblown:
do you realize how impossible it is for TI to do what you just said 10 years into hiphop.

How many rappers are getting features on hit songs in their 10th year?

I hope Tip remains independent, the music he could make without major label pressure will be amazing.

Also I dont know how "Castle Walls" with Christina and "Guns n Roses" with Pink werent pushed as singles, label fukked up.

In my opinion his verses don't add anything to any of the songs u named. Blurred lines would have been a hit with or without T.I.
feelings mutual. I like tip but that verse was so unnecessary. He didn't add anything irreplaceable to the song
