Artists nowadays just come and go ... what happen to ASAP's buzz?

[AbrahamLincolnPawgHunter]

Now I'm checking for Chief Keef more than him but ASAP was in heavy demand about 2 months agao

It's so crazy now that the Internet exists.

Same thing happened to Odd Future

A lot of times, they never actually HAD buzz to begin with.

Twitter/blogs/etc. push/promote things and it gives the illusion of buzz when it was never there. It was just on the internet and not in actual life.

they go on tour

i think over saturation of music has a lot to do with it. i mean i still bump liveloveasap a lot but there's so many other good tapes out that i'm not chatting about him on the internet when 20 (rough figure, you get it) great mixtapes came out this year so far.

and i got to disagree KTD2, ASAP gets a lot of play at house parties/heard from whips in the two cities i live in (providence and brookyln), BUT most "buzzed" artists are exactly what you said. Joey Badass for example.


edit: ohh you were generalizing, I agree then but with ASAP he does have a tangible real buzz


Also you gotta understand the coli isn't life, i didn't hear people bump ASAP until a good half a year or more after he popped up on sohh(the internet).

People settled to them which is why you don't see online heads dikkriding them all day every day. it doesn't mean their buzz is gone. the people who were fans before are still fans now. ya'll always fall for these traps and end up looking come them first week numbers

Odd future still has a following

It's like nowadays if a rapper isn't releasing a mixtape every week he doesn't have a buzz and has completely fallen off the face of the earth. Waynes the one that started this.

Another great point, I like the music and if nothing new comes out why is a thread going to be made about it? I would rep you if i could breh that's spot on

Goldie didnt take off at all, and now for whatever reason hes putting his crew tape out before his album.

He'll continue to release mixtapes & tour but as far as having a career in the mainstream it might be over...

Cosign Abe, about the net thing.

Times we live in now, everything, and I mean everything is over-hyped, over-saturated etc. and therefore deflates way more quickly.
