Was there ever a bigger fall off than Desiigner?

[MajesticLion]

He was never really on. T-Pain dusted him on his own beat before he ever established himself.

 

[Kooley_High]

Oh yeah I lived through that first hand breh. I was one of the brehs checking for the album.

Dude could've been Nipsey status (before he died) if he kept making music. Had literally one of the biggest, if not biggest, launches as a new artist on GTA V which sold a billion+ copies.

Had the pimp aesthetic down to a tee, that market is still untapped in the mainstream.

Too bad it was all an act for him and he was some weird ass mixed rich kid with an African father.

But it all fell apart when he had a show in Dallas and tried that weird artsy shyt and got booed out of the building. At that point he quit rapping for a few years and came back as Kossiko on some artsy queer LBGTQI shyt. Biggest fall off and waste of opportunity ever.

His music sucks ass now. I still think he could come back full circle as a solid underground pimp artist, but damn what could've been tho SMH

Is that what happened to him? I heard he was checked by “real” pimps or something and made to fall back.
But now I see why he switched it up. It was all a made up persona that he probably never connected with. He was bound to get exposed eventually. But that mixtape was fire af. Cruisin Los Santos with the top back

Edit: I think there was a video of him in a Target commercial that started floating around. He probably knew the clock was ticking

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

The booth thought this dude was the biggest thing ever. I remember they was hyping up that Timmy turner like it was the next classic of the decade.

 

[Menna]

Ever a bigger fall off? Yes, was his fall off big...yes

This board won't remember it, but there was a time in the early 1990s when Craig Mack was the hottest thing in hip hop.

Said “You won’t be around next year” and wasn’t around the next year after the song

 

[DJ Paul's Arm]

B.o.b was sad.

Dude felt like he needed to prove his street card.

y’all remember when bob responded to Kendricks verse with a guitar solo?

 

[Mowgli]

He probably didn't buss it open at the parties and they cancelled him.

He's a church brother

[KingFreeman]

Panda was a fluke. Breh would've had to keep making catchy hits like that and had a bug industry push to get them out everywhere, but he couldn't replicate it.

 

[L@CaT]

He single handedly proved what kind of Trend Hopping fakkit Kanye was when he signed Designer (who has always been wack) to Good music.

Then Ye goes on to do song with Lil pump

 

[Child_Of_God]

Him and Fetty Wap’s rein was short like leprechauns.

 

[Wild self]

He tooks Future's style and made a #1 hit

Future himself couldn't fight back because he cannot rap nor battle for shyt

This autotune shyt proves that its the training wheels of MC skills; you can never get better as long as some piece of technology helps you.

 

[InGodWeTrust]

I always felt that he was always acting real c00nish.

I understand he's supposed to have a lot of energy but this dude would dab and dab like crazy. Always acted like he was on that narcotic.

 

[UpAndComing]

Has a style imitator ever been successful long term

Kobe

 

[CrimsonTider]

Fetty had a run
Quan never reached as high/mainstream as panda.

I think a close comparison of a one hit wonder that really had a smash/mainstream hit that was then exploited by someone else would be Trinidad James

THERES BEEN TONS
OF ONE HIT WONDERS THO

YOU COULDA ATLEAST
NAMED A nikka WHO HAD AN
ACTUAL RUN.

​

the answer is RHQ. He had multiple hits, was featured all over hip hop and then he just vanished from the scene
