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

[tremonthustler1]

Yeah he probably had too much dip on his chip doing arenas. Also who’s filling up an arena in Arkansas?

Trump Supporters

 

[Illuminatos]

Who the fukk is Olivia Rodriguez?

I think you proved his point because I’ve never heard of her in my life.

Nobody wants to pay for these bullshyt rappers to babble on stage for 2 hours at their individual shows. The lyrics are barely understood on a record, so imagine at a show.

It’s a waste of time and money, and a lot of these guys’ fans hardly even go outside.

Let’s be real.

 

[MrRDU]

this was all for nothing



And you got ppl saying he better than T.I.

 

[Legalese]

Difference between him and somebody like Wayne is performance and charisma

cant go to shows and just walk around

Lil baby sell out shows every weekend and so does durk. Just because the ARENA tour aint selling dont mean people dont wanna go see him. What record can you not understand lil baby on ?

 

[El Guapo]

Stream numbers got artists thinking they’re bigger than they really are.

i grew up in little rock not far from the arena. white country stars dont even fill up that arena.

 

[Tom Foolery]

Average white girl who makes average white girl music. She makes teenage break up music

i got no clue who this little bytch is, but she over 400m view on these 2 songs.

 

[Born2BKing]

I fukk with lil baby thats my nikka

But he not a pop star like drake em or jay to fill out arenas

shyt I'd even doubt wayne or kanye can pull it off

Plus theres still a pandemic: only people not really givin a fukk about it are the magas, so thats that

Kanye just had a packed house for a listening party.

Yeah Im to so I looked her up and I guess she's an actress on that
high school musical show on Disney+.. that's probably why her numbers crazy and she has so many fans

 

[STAN JONES]

this isn’t a good look for Lik Baby

especially since the everybody in the industry likes to claim hes the top dog and took Drakes spot

i bet a Drake/Durk tour wouldn’t have problems selling tickets

North Little Rock, question is not if baby is flopping. Question is why they are making him perform at such venues in cities they’ve never hear of. And charging like 150 for floor seats doesn’t make sense either, it’s not a major market

Look at Drakes latest tour including Migos of their peak. The smallest and most trash market they did was Glendale (Phoenix) Arizona. Which has a market of maybe 5 million people.

Also if he manages to do half of the stadium, that’s like a full 10k stadium.

I said it before on another thread, but Lil Baby being presented and heralded as the next big thing is a record label masterclass by QC. There's seriously no difference from him and any other flashy, swag ATL rapper. He just has the backing.

Arena tours also require a certain type of music. I got no hate on Baby but a lot of his shyt sounds the same. Same drum programming, same 808s, different stock sounds. Who is trying to spend $50+ to hear someone sing-rap over their vocals, with no decent stage design or images/video? This is basically a club stop, done as a tour. Lazy.

Speaking of clubs I agree with Ak: he should stop doing clubs. He doesn't need the money at this point. If you're serious about taking the next step it requires a complete change. Some more inventive, different music. Some type of stage design. And you gotta start at smaller venues. Baby should be able to sell out a 3-5k venue.
