Plies is the blueprint for rappers who get a whole 2nd wind and becoming a personality strictly off of social media.

He went viral for being a ignent caricature on the early days of IG video.



Then he switched to his real self as a sort of motivational speaker that even endorsed Kamala


It really proved that people were correct on him not being like his rap persona. He was waaaaaay more smart than the image portrayed (he went to college, played football, etc).

Snopp and 50 tweets, insta, podcasts have greater virality and earnings than their new music at this point.
