I got mixed feelings about this chick, I can't tell if she's real or she trying to capitalize off of the current state of black affairs. IDK the details but people say she was just on some Worshiping White men trip, then flips the script? I assume she's trying to capitalize or some white dude pulled her card and it set her off along with whats going on in Rap.
exactly how I feel....

Nobody thats REALLY poppin is really speaking out...


It will be old legends who's time has passed or smaller underground indy type artists that have nothing to lose..


Beyonce wont say sh1t but Solange will..


Kendrick wont say sh1t but Q-Tip will..


Drake wont say sh1t but Tyler will..



Nas wont say sh1t but Jungle will...

lol...yall got the game all fukked up.

I cant believe people are really crying about a fly by night act.
To make things worse, a black man is making money off of it behind the scenes.
Thats how the game is supposed to be played...but this internet generation is too dumb to see it.

There will ALWAYS be a market for a Iggy...you might as well profit from it.
and there will alwasy be crabs in the barrel ass people

Nope.

He's 0-1 against Solange. He doesn't want them problems.

there's no denying the the slow-down, but IF Taylor Swift would've sold 12 mil a decade ago it would've been BECAUSE iTunes (and Amzon, Google Music) wasn't really yet adapted on a large level. So lots of ppl were still buing whole CD's as opposed to dl'ing singles like they do now.

But black ppl were still buying R&B music and rap as well b/c links weren't readily avaliable back then.

And IMO, the explosion of the mixtape scene the past 4-5 years has trained the young rap fan to not pay money for rap music. If you have 3-4 free mixtapes from an artist, your brain is likely not gonna compute BUYING a retail album from that artist....unless you're just really a dedicated fan like that. And when mixtapes were dropping like every week, rap fans had no need to buy albums

The issue here tho is not pop/country music, it's hip-hop. And white ppl will supprt the white hip-hop artists, and black ppl wont support our artists anymore. So the biz will go where the dollars go

Black people are predominantly the ones supporting Trey Songz, Miguel, Tamar Braxton, etc. If Sam Smith is barely going platinum then a black artist is probably selling a fifth of that unless they are a genuine superstar. Like you said, no one sells unless they have a dedicated fan base and white artists have a wider net. It is that simple. Black people are no less supportive of anything than anyone else. Black women in particular.
