Big Nas fan, here, and I actually support this thread 100%
Difference between being a fan and being a stan
Fans support an artist but can be objective in critiquing the music
Stans, comparatively, have lost all objectivity and feel the artist whose nuts they're swinging from can do absolutely no wrong and they are so much better than other artists--they end up portraying some unrealistic, distorted depiction of artists and their art
Worst thing about stans, though, is that it spawns internet characters whose whole personas are shrouded in discrediting an artist who is being stanned as a way, I guess, to bring some balance--what results is a bunch of fruitless, overcompensating arguments about nothing
