Are we all here completely out of touch with who is popular and relevant?

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

Ok but do you have a point though? “I LiKe GoOd MuZic!”
Ok…?
The thread is about perception of what’s popular or not. You came in the thread just to say you’re cool because the music you like is better than music other people like.
You sound like some cac packpacker talking about how Aeseoprock is better than Jay Z.

no it's not about who is popular, you also put "relevant". benny is relevant. he could have been on the freshman list with all the rest of your fav wack rappers. he's signed with jay z and he's performed on national television, to name a few accolades
the difference between him and whoever you want us to talk about is he doesn't fukkin suck so he's worthy lol
so you can label a whole forum of users as flabby and sick but cry when people point out your favs lack quality. you goofy breh log off for a min

nikkas love claiming whats hot in black america then talk bout sht most nikkas dont give a single fukk about. Yeah, coli a bubble. I fw griselda as a collective and shyt but nobody give a fukk about them besides white people who real rap fans

Yes, I think teens and early 20s discuss music on Twitter or reddit, if at all online, rather than message boards.

Music nowadays comes & goes and it gets made by “amateurs”. It’s understandable not to know some of the new acts. It’s hard to keep up.

Then again, do you make an effort to spin new artists? I sure don’t, which is something I want to change.

So I guess you’re just going to act like I didn’t make it clear I am a huge Benny fan and didn’t know who Glokknine was until recently he dissed another rapper?

I never said Benny wasn’t “relevant.” Based on those things you cited (freshman list, Jay Z, etc.) I would’ve thought Benny was more popular and was surprised to learn Glokknine had more streams.

That’s why you deserve just a neg instead of thread engagement. You’re too stupid and emotional to divorce a conversation about popularity, relevance, and the perception thereof from a “rapper I like vs. rapper I don’t like” kneejerk stan reaction. And you don’t even realize I clearly am a fan of Benny and not the guy who I’ve only heard 3 songs from who you called one of my “faves.” Ok? Now you log off and try to gain some critical thinking skills.

cool, then take your alleged superior intellectual ability and put 2+2 together, what has been repeated in the thread about 3 times so hopefully you understand it from a font that you don't have personal beef with (LOL). there is a difference between relevant and bad and relevant and good. the later is going to get more discussion here. deal with it

TheColi as a whole is

Prime example is Roddy Ricch's new album is out right now but is nowhere to be found on the first page.

 

[Low End Derrick]

Of course.

40-year-old black American men don't listen to violent, gay, female or foreign rap music; essentially whats hot on the streets or the charts.

Twitter consensus seems to be that the album is trash anyways

it's pinned and literally at the top of the page rn

i feel you though, i be looking right past the pinned threads sometimes too

 

[A Tribe Called Quest ™]

I dont think the Coli/Sohh was ever about whats popular.

The mainstream rap fans (yes even the hood) has always liked bullshyt.

This is a music site where people who post here take things a little more serious

You giving people on this forum too much credit

 

[NSSVO]

Half and half. I keep finding rappers that are pretty fukking popular that I never heard of. I am switching over to the other side

 

[dh86]

The labels and media are more out of touch than we are

They're not lying.

Now my eyes aren't the best but I don't think Roddy's album is pinned. Where's the thread?
