X and Juice definitely were on there way it's a shame their lives were taken just before they reach that status.

Pop Smoke would've been right there to me too.

Pop Smoke would've been right there to me too.

Used to think the same but doesn't even compare in longevity

Well yeah cause X and Juice were bigger and had cult-like fanbases, Pop was nowhere near close to what he could've been to me. He was just getting started to keep it a buck.

 

[BigMan]

She don’t got numbers but she has genuine talent and her music gets played out side. She’ll be fine

 

[Big Boss]

Flop

 

[Youngdev]

Her personality is not very likable & hard to market..I can see scarlip silly azz outselling her easily just because scarlip is more real to the ppl and has humility

You must be apart of Scar lip's team


Aint nobody checking for her like that, and if they do its usually to clown her, cause she do alot of clownable shyt

 

[CrimsonTider]

Not bad numbers considering imo latto barely gets pushed.

1st week sales don’t matter for these artist

 

[Sk3ptical]

I agree, but it isn't even thot rap it's rap as a whole. There's going to be no more new rap superstars coming out, the days of that happening are over. Realistically in 2024 how many rappers can even hit the 100k mark when an album comes out first week.

Eminem- from the 90's
Nicki Minaj- 2010's
Kendrick Lamar- 2010's
J Cole- 2010's
Drake-2010's
Travis Scott- 2010's
Future- 2010's

Thats across all genre tho music business is at a all time low.
My nikka durk do over 120k everytime he drops tho.

 

[Sk3ptical]

Well unfortunately youre a nobody @Harry B so you dont get to make the rules on whose new and who isnt. None of those artists listed are new.

Just cause theyre new to you cause you one of the biggest dweebs on this site doesnt mean they are

Durk blow up in 2020 so to most people he is new

 

[Uitomy]

Rap artists are not moving any units in this era. The music genre is going to be in trouble if they don’t find the next future superstars

Thats the problem, relying on the very 1% of talent and charisma to carry it is not going to cut it in an era where people can listen to anyone at any moment and make some random from Idaho their own personal number one. Pop got to stop trying to appeal to everyone and be more grassroots with the talent and allow people to make the music they actually want to make. It will relate more.

She does a whole lot of clownish shyt I agree but she makes better music than latto..and nah I ain’t going out my way to listen to either one of them

 

[Awesome Wells]

This right here.

Everybody online turns into a record executive overnight after numbers come out, as if they know the business. Latto's doing what RCA expects her to do. She's gonna be fine. Problem is, fans don’t want to just be fans anymore. So access to numbers has listeners thinking they're in the business now. It's goofy and mad weird to keep seeing.

 

[Shadow King]

She is Rakim compared to Ice Spice and them ratchet interchangeable South chicks...and Cardi B, etc... And she fine. Let that girl be great, lol, she write her own shh!t?

No, or at least she gets "help".

This isn’t the early 2000s. Success isn’t based on first week sales anymore. It’s based on consumption and engagement,


the only artist with big first week sales are old artist that built up fanbases in a prior era
