Why are Nicki Minaj and Cardi B both flopping now? Is it a wrap?

True the rappers don’t mature either, so why will we keep listening to them like we used to when we were younger???

Plus, a lot of people grow out of hip-hop.
That's sort of where I am at. I seldomly listen to rap nowadays.

What transition do you mean?
When hip-hop/rap is no longer the dominant musical expression and cultural vehicle in American/Western society.
Why are people acting surprised that two female rappers over the age of 35 are flopping?

Cardi just let it all go to her head. Gassed tf up. Taking long hiatuses like she Jay Z lol. Offset has not one ounce of Ike Turner in him. She comes off like she thinks she is prestigious now lol. U are from the BRONX.

Nicki had a great career, but it's time to become more of a legendary feature artist and mentor for these young female rappers. Teach them how to move for bigger endorsements and longevity.
Cardi isn't 35...

When I get on in the next year or 2 I’m giving hip hop at least another decade in that top spot :ufdup:

Ppl scared to say it, but female rap is and always has been BORING. I said this on Twitter and had females, female rappers, and pandering nikkaz in my mentions for a MONTH.

:dead:
Yeah there’s no edge in the music, women for the most part will gravitate considerably more to pop music, which generally is bombastic and makes you move regardless of who you are. The kind of music cardi and nicki makes is generally for hoes so most women will vibe to it on occasion but not actually check for it at their own discretion

Too much build-up for that song.

You can't talk about it as much as they did.

Just play the snippet if you think you got something. Don't talk about how it'll change the game or something "nobody had heard before".

If they didn't hype it up like that, chances are it'd have at least done much better.
Lowkey durk made the same mistake building up to his album

It did well sales wise but there's not a single hit on it and it's largely forgotten

Gunna did just as you said, let the music speak for itself, and has arguably the biggest rap hit of the year
