Why is currency not on the same level as wiz khalifa (in terms of weed rappers) at this point?

[Lebron Johnson]

Hey guys,

Ive been listening to curren$y alot lately. He is dope as shyt, I don't think many would doubt that. He also has a million songs, albums with wiz khalifa, etc.

What I don't understand is why he has never had a radio hit? I'm not talking about selling out, I'm talking about essentially following in the footsteps of wiz. He already talks about drugs and bytches and cars and shyt.

Even if he doesnt want to write it himself, can't he just like get some ghostwriters (aka wiz) to write him a song that will blow him the fukk up? I mean it would probably take him an hour to record the vocals...Or is this have something to do with his principles? Or his he not really as good as I think?

he seems fine with being recognized for putting out consistent, dope music. his stint with Cash money and No Limit left him sour about doing things he 'had to' do as an artist. he created his own lane, makes a very good living, and rewards his fans like no one else

unique career, i wish his debut would have sold more just cuz its him but im sure he wasnt trippin bout it

 

[osama bin fly]

I think he just doesnt want to blow up
he is still one of the most popular indie rapper and his last album moved 80k first week so he's good plus he has side hustles in NO

I forgot about his situation with cash money... My life would be so much sweeter if I could turn on the radio and hear some currensy.

because spitta didnt sell out and turn his back on his main fanbase like wiz did.

why would anybody want spitta to end up like this?

 

[Red Maverick II]

Cause he didn't suck dikk to get a deal

 

[Loud Still Coolin]

i think he got stupid bread on the low.

even if he wass 5k a show. dude done did like 400 shows in last 7 years.

didnt know he was signed either. he left def jam good timing

Wiz Khalifa is a disney weed rapper..

 

[Mr. Somebody]

I think its because of the way their faces look and the way their voices sound.

Spitta cool where he at. That man tours, puts out dope music for his fans when he wants, smokes all the weed he wants, buys & restores all his favorite muscle cars, got his own car shop.... shyt all he posts on IG is toy cars & pics from car meets That nikka loving life right now, he seems genuinely happy, he deserves it

Edit: Plus Wiz got that mainstream "Black & Yellow" / skinny jean + a bunch of tattoos type appeal, spitta don't got that, he aint out there chasing radio hits(by choice or force), he's focused on dropping shyt like this:

 

[WOAHMYGOODNESS]

Apitta is a hustlrr...dude career path is unique and if he keeps goin qill go doqn as an underground legend

Plus he is the most consistent rapper in the game
the drive in theatre is amazing

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

Wiz Khalifa has benefitted from the major machine push and Currensy has not.

Wiz was the bigger artist anyways. He always was.

Wiz just always had more diversity to him too.
