All the autotune music you hear was initially and largely funded by grand hustle artist. Or someone using amenities or resources related to grand hustle.


For every pioneer of this genre of music. That is a far cry from cher and Madonna using autotune. Is Influenced or was around a heavily resourced grand hustle artist movement.
Only other camp is dungeon family and after the artist who made creatine who coined trap as this thing on record first. Plus future. The main company and artist led label was ti's grand hustle.

All the records made in the genre.
lift from an obscure grand hustle artists like rich kids to Yung la or dro. or racks by future.
Where future is known in the genre after grand hustle.
Already made significant grassroots claims to this direction.

So after weezy prostitute flange.

this genre is grand hustle's hustle.

Naw O.G we rejecting that deposit
Auto tune is T-Pain at the helm

Snoop was the first rapper to have a hit won’t auto tune with sexual seduction.

Weezy and Ye got put on by Pain.

Atl took it to a next level who in grand hustle was using auto tune or wasn’t no Yung LA. and Future closer to Rocko and Gucci.

I know who coined actually coined trap t.I “Trademarked” the term I’m talking about the actual sound.


You skimmed.

What part of cher to madonna to prostitute flange and rich kids.
did you miss in my rant.

You nikkaz like to talk but do.not know no facts.
Plus never reviewed no albums.
for me to even listen to anything you and anyone misinformed says.


Stop skim'n nikka.

Read.
Stop trying to speak outta turn like you the guy.

Nobody listens to your errant commentary.
every nikka you like since 1997.

I was the lead review and how they got a draw.
Simple as that.

They have to wait.
till I make a review.
to even think about investing properly in their artists.
Miss me with your excuses and inability to read.

No one thinks auto tune Madonna ..
Anyway ..

Just like no one says trap don’t exist without grand hustle. T.I might of imagined it by the inspiration of DF.

Jeezy and Gucci embodied it and brought it to life with the influence of Memphis music.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
Pusha don't try and make hits though.. Really, name the radio friendly singles that you think was supposed to be hits? He doesn't even attempt them. He's very clearly stated he's going to make Coke Rap forever and never change that at all

He does have two Grammy nods and 3 critically acclaimed albums out of 3... I'd call that success

Now if he had Beiber on a hook and was still flopping, he'd have a point

push is talented but also easily one of the most overrated rappers on this website and beyond :francis:

the way people talk about push you'd think he is revered like jay or had big numbers at least - it's weird
Jay-Z has 4 songs with this nikka and Push was never even on the label... Jay will come out of hiding to do songs with Pusha so it's not weird at all that others also regard him highly

Nobody's saying Pusha T is wack.

Nobody's saying he should be a pop superstar.

We can't compare him to Sean Price for the following reasons:

1) Sean ain't have a career of Neptunes, Timbaland, and Kanye helming albums. There were no Pharrell features.

2) We didn't see Sean Price in the MTV VMA's performing alongside Kanye and Justin Timberlake

3) We didn't see Sean Price featured on these big songs like "Mercy", "Like I Love You", and "Run Away". People ain't even understanding that Push was on Backstreet Boys remixes.

Y'all gotta know these corporate/business types ONLY measure someone's worth by how much money it attention they can generate

No idea why the thread is this long, taking "numbers" people's opinion art seriously is a joke

1. Push didn’t underachieve with MNIMN tho. If im not mistaken he sold the same as big sean that year lol

2. Name those artists

3. So? Jay elect had a whole album with hov does that mean he was chasing mainstream success? No

4. Not really lol. Push didnt get pushed nearly as much as dudes he was signed with. Cudi and sean were bigger artists but couldnt maintain their status like push did and now he outselling them. But yet push is the one that underachieved smh

1. Breh, Big Sean went gold with Hall of Fame WITHOUT Kanye nor Pharrell producing his songs on that album. Push has yet to receive a certification for any of his solo albums.

2. Mos Def went Gold with Black on Both Sides. Outside of Premier producing "Mathematics". There were no super producers he was aligned with. Not to mention he was signed to Rawkus. Scarface was a consistent seller and minus a Dre beat on Untouchable, no superproducers and no real mainstream singles. Never changed his style. Has a string of gold and platinum albums without being mainstream.

3. The joint album with Jay Z is how Jay Elect even got a release date.

4. Pusha T was on "Runaway". He was also on "Mercy". He was the first of the Wyoming projects and the one Kanye spent the most time on.
