Why is Lil Baby’s arena tour flopping? Is it too soon for him?

Exactly what I mean.....She is the hottest artist in the game right now. Nobody is coming close to her. Not even Drake. This girl is completely wrecking the game with less than 15 songs out. shyt has never been done before. It's a different world that y'all don't see.

These white folks don't care about no Lil Baby, Durk, They don't know who Jayda, India, Ari. They don't follow no shaderoom gossip blogs nor give a fukk
No one gives a fukk about the Hot 100 anymore :heh:

It was made completely irrelevant as soon as the pandemic hit

This “different world” you’re taking consists of label inflated numbers and pre-teens

this tour should have been done at 3000 cap clubs, and even then i'm not certain they'd all sell out.

there's WAY more to say about an artist when those tour posters say SOLD OUT on every date.

plus can lil baby even perform at the level that is required to be performing at arenas? :stopitslime:

Shultz already addressed it. You only talking to 12% of the population when you are doing street hip hop.

These white folks don't even know who Lil Baby or Lil Durk is.

The reason why Drake can fill out because he talks to everyone.

Lil Baby is exactly like Olivia Rodrigo. You ask two sets of people if you heard their music and one party is going to look at the other like they are crazy. You live two differently completely different lives that never overlap.
i hope you not talking about Andrew Schultz. Don’t nobody give a fukk what He got to say. Rappers been doing arenas for decades talkin about street chit.

It’s in Arkansas, I’m sure it wasn’t hard to book that venue

But even it’s a bad move because who the fukk is even going to see him out there? It would be different if he was a bluegrass musician or some shyt

Because he's a feature artist in all honesty. His solo material isn't stadium/concert music, its strip club and small hood club music.

Had he rode his activist wave that he quickly denounced in order to keep his credibility, he could have dropped an ep/album and crossed over and these tickets would be way up.

He has more than a handful
Songs white folks would know? Black folks are not going to fill these arenas.
I just checked Billboard, he has zero #1s, three top 10s only as a feature on Drake, Pop Smoke and J Cole songs
All of his songs top out in the 50s
I’m sure he could get a HBCU homecoming crowd going but he not pop enough to be headlining arena tours

I just looked up Olivia Rodrigo. Her shyt went #1 worldwide. :picard:
Literally never heard of her before. I thought I was in the loop
