"I'm DONE With The Hip-Hop Game. Bruh, I'm A Grown Ass Man." - Waka Flocka

[SirReginald]

Nobody wants to hear grown, mature content from Waka. Hiphop is the main genre where you pretty much have to finish the same way you started:

Hip-hop Is the Main Genre Where Its Career Suicide To Mature As A Person

If you come in the game on some ignorant street shyt, that's pretty much how the fans want you to stay.

Maturing in hip-hop is career suicide and will get you laughed at and ridiculed.

Extremely backwards.

Sad, but true

But you're including people like Jay Z which is disingenuous

Jay Z always makes the forbes list, why aren't you discounting him as a legitimate artist??

Because you have an agenda

We can go into the specifics of why rappers don't make as much as djs if you want to though

Just let me know


And you're definitely not an "electronic music" head so don't lie to yourself

Jay-z makes most of his money from touring. Th Carter’s last tour made more money than the whole top 10 EDM list.

So a grown ass man can't make hip hop huh...

 

[Soylent Greenz]

Trash rapper...Great entertainer.

 

[mortuus est]

rap is a young mans game, and tbh waka already had his star moment, he's over it, nothing wrong with that

Because they aggressively tour

Calvin Harris makes $1 million per show for his Vegas residency

He only performs once a week

Jay z and beyonce did like 4 tours in 2 years to earn what they did, where as calvin Harris will earn almost as much as they did in 2 years, just by doing 1 show a week and a couple festivals

If he toured as aggressively as they do then he would make more than them

On top of that, Calvin harris is signed to Jay z iirc which means part of Jays earnings come from calvin Harris

And there are plenty more factors at play besides the raw face value numbers

He got his health in order and realized how terrible of a rapper he was.

He actually became a good rapper... well 100x better than what he was during his peak... I just think it might been to late
