Thug talks like a regular Black nerd. I heard his normal speaking voice once... and his reddit posts reflect the same. This Young Thug persona is just some shyt he made up.

Hating on Andre3000 is competitive jealousy.

All the musicians on his flute album have dramatically increased their profiles and booking abilities.
No word of a lie.

Okay. That actually does sound like a lie - can you verify that with proof?

Regarding the original post - ya, Andre 3000 is not a good person to look for career help - when he quit being a rapper 19 years ago. That's the equivalent to me being 9 years old in 1990 and hearing Stairway to Heaven by Led Zepplin. Thinking damn that sounds old! That was for those high school kids in the early 70s! That's what 19 years away is like. That's how long Andre hasn't been rapping.

Shout out to Redman, Ghostface, Jay Z, Wu Tang who actually have acquired this very rare thing called "Rap career longevity"

Okay, I don't think it's hating or any form of competitive jealous at all.

Andre3000 has not been any form of competition to anyone in rap for 19 years! Literally since Saddam Hussein was executed.

It's definitely competitive jealousy. Andre300 dropped a random verse and won both Future and Killer Mike a Grammy with Scientists and Engineers in 2024, the same two rappers he also helped put on. That's why he's downplaying Andre3000's contributions. Textbook hate tactic...and you believed him.

Okay.

I don't think Andre "won" any Grammys for anyone. I believe Killer Mike won his Grammy cause his album was great + all the hard work he put in.

We have differing opinions on this all good.

I am just very frustrated with Andre 3000. And the years he didn't rap. So my thoughts are coming from that place.

And I'm bothered by people giving him passes for being a great. He is nowhere near Nas or Jay Z's level of work output and longevity.

They directly put on Killer Mike and their initial popularity helped Goodie Mob get a leg up.


Andre walked into the Mecca of Hip Hop, amongst boos and jeers, and gave one of the most prophetic statements in music history. Paving the way for Thug to have the career he undeservedly has today.

Dont forget Slimm Calhoun either

....white demons perceive time as linear . . . and diligently track the calendar pages for cracks and flaws where they can insert their opinion . . . . your main problem is . . .. nobody give a fukk what you think . . . .. this aint hate . . . it just is what it is . . .. . tell us more about why you mad at Dre . . . . and im sure you only started payin attention to Killer Mike with RTJ . . .. . why are you "bothered" by another grown man's actions and choices that have no direct impact to your health or finances . .. .. other than your dopamine receptors seeking more rhythms and melodies and flows to appropriate. . .. oh wait . .. .. you in cryo-sleep stuck on Cage / Necro formula to this day . . .. to you .. . "hip-hop" is a concept . .. listen to the intro to this track . . . at age 42 or wherever you at in life . .. you are forever on the outside looking-in . . .. once you accept that . .. . maybe your music will evolve . . . . otherwise . .. . stick to your current "fans" and collect that quarterly 116-dollar payout from the streams . . . .. . ..

Thug was a Reddit poster before he blew up. Son didn’t come off like his rap persona at all from what I saw him post on there.

I dunno how true it is but years ago somebody on here said they went to school with Young Thug and he was a weird art kid. Popular, good with the ladies, but not in the streets at all. So he was confused where all this gangster shyt came from.

So it's possible that Young Thug was overcompensating. :yeshrug:

Fred.

I told people this years ago and his stans said I was hating.
