This is latin music erasure and it will not stand. Bad Bunny is bigger than almost everyone you named. And Peso Pluma exploded in the past year or 2. Also I hear The Weeknd in every country i travel to. It's never rap music.This.
Music isn't this all encompassing medium anymore.
There's only a few legit music superstars at this point.
Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Rihanna, Drake, & Kendrick.
There are no other superstars in modern music
And Rihanna hasn't made a record in what 8 years or something?
Music lost it's importance. That's why MTV, BET, & VH1 REALLY stopped playing music, not some nonsense about "music's on the YOUTUBE, now".
Which again proves my point.
And?
Since when do Grammy's mean you're hot?
Stop.
no rapper that debuted in the last almost 10 years is as big as J Cole, Future, Drake, Kendrick nor the previous generation of TI, Jeezy, Kanye, Wayne, Nelly, Luda nor the previous generation of Jay Z, DMX, Pac, Big, NWA ect
You're dead wrong. Bad Bunny has been the in the top 3 most streamed artist on Spotify the past 4 years. Three of those years being number one. With a record setting tour. Having a number one album in this country.Which again proves my point.
Imagine Viacom deeming low-brow reality shows more viewable than Michael Jackson or Madonna in the '80s/'90s?
It just wouldn't have happened.
Like I said, they did it because other than Beyonce, Taylor, Drake, Kendrick, and a few other people, nobody in ANY GENRE is moving the needle like that anymore.
And?
What's your point?
Nothing you're talking about has to do with music.
You're literally making my point. Their shoes & streaming is more relevant than their music.

Dude, go look at the list of who wins Grammys every year.
Samara Joy won "Best New Artist" last year.
Where she at?
Victoria Monet won it this year & has only had TWO top 100 songs in her whole career
Go to your local high-school/college.
Ask how many of them are listening to "Killer Mike" currently
Stop.
95% of this country speaks ENGLISH, motherfukker.
Bad Bunny is probably more known in America for working with WWE (outside of Hispanics) than he is for any music he's making.
You ask the average American about Latin music, they'll probably still say Selena or J. Lo or Shakira.
But, I agree, they've tried to push Rosalia & Bunny & Karol G, but I guarantee you most (non-Latin) people aint listening to that.
Vince is a great artist it's a shame he's not selling more, but even if you look at his XXL year - who here besides him and dej is still dropping anything?
bubble and the youtube algorithm is helping me a lot

Raury went crazy
Fetty fell off/jail
rip maco
goldlink killed his career over the mac shyt
Even if someone like Raury is technically dropping an album and maintaining 1mil monthly listeners, he's not at all culturally relevant. I like his first 3 albums a lot too.
This entire thread is about how culturally relevant rap is now. I'm not hating on Raury by pointing out nobody gaf about his music anymore.
Yes, because of Latinos, like I said.
@Sad Bunny The slander is crazy on Benito.Which again proves my point.
