He was the number one artist on Spotify 3 years in a row. 2023 would have been 4 years in a row, but he came in second to Taylor.

Yea that’s why I said he’s right these girls are just glorified influencers nobody really cares about their music. Joe himself always hypes the girls up but we know he not playing that shyt, that sexxy red slob session he had was so fake and phony lolthe point he’s making that everyone is missing is there was an influx of female rappers the last 3-5 years a new one was popping up everytime you turned around. that shyt is dead. its not worth the investment. because no one gives a fukk about them honestly.
be on twitter and always see shorties saying “the girlies are running rap" and didnt stream their music.
Commercial success isn’t solely defined by album sales these days. It’s damn near the least relevant metric
They’re touring well for the level and type fans they have.
Most female rap fans are young black women. That leads to doing club walkthroughs and college campuses and very small city venues
There’s no wave because streaming has siloed all listeners
What’s the point or copying Rod Waves sound when a lot of rap fans can’t even name a Rod Wave song even though he’s one of the hottest rappers out
The podcast wave is over
Idk breh but the mumble era killed it. As you mentioned there are no new superstars. We need new blood. Drake has been around forever now
Travis Scott was the only rap album in the worldwide top 10. And if I change that to USA Travis was number 7 and Metro boomin album was number 10. It just got stale like superhero movies. Perhaps people are ready for something new.
And yes Latin music has exploded while rap has been declining. You have artists in that genre setting tour records. Bad Bunny is just as big as Taylor Swift if not bigger.
Bad Bunny Has Spotify’s Most Streamed Album Globally of 2023
Bad Bunny has Spotify's most streamed album globally in 2023. See which release took the honors.www.billboard.com
Yep.
The females took over rap, when rap is on the decline popularity wise. The sun is setting on the rap industry, but people are stagnated with their tastes.
Rap is damn near Disco status with the production of trap music staying the same since 2016 and the same rappers on top.
Who was ruined dork?Ruined a whole generation of girls for bare minimum

I think it's clear labels are ruining the market for rap on purpose by investing in streaming services that set the value on music so low. They just passing around money at the top while artist argue over dumb shyt like streams

No one aside from the usual suspects are selling records nowadays. Record sales as a whole is a terrible barometer for what’s popular. Like Joe, most of us are out of touch and should sit this one out
Barely any of them were real talents. City girls was a fake group of non rappers etc. A lot of the rest got writers on deck. They just a face and a hustle. When everyone try to run the same game the shyt gets ran down. The thot bop chronicles got stale. The amateur music has little lasting power. The content is cringe. That's why it's over. They defeated themselves by being so damn wack.
When it's all said and done hip hop might have declined as a genre in the 50th year of it's recorded History with women at the helm. That's a shyt legacy. They finally dominate the game and put have no classics to speak of n are leaving the genre worse than when they took over. So much for patriarchy and misogyny being the problem. Females killed rap as an artform. Let that sink in

Remember when strippers used to aspire to be rappers and make more. I guess they can't all be Cardi B. They going backwards. The music money must be gone.
