nah....u underrating Cardi boost being on LHHH. Already had a leg up
Yup

But also, Cardi has more of a “IT” factor then a lot of these broads.

Ppl can talk about Ghostwriting. and Marketing, and how they hate her music but at the same time Cardi had hella fans/followers going all the way back to VINE cause she is just a charismatic/entertaining person .

Love or hate Cardi, a lot of these IG thot wanna be rappers have little appeal outside of they t*ts and ass. Where as yes, Cardi used sex Appeal but she would also get hella vines and retweets off being goofy and entertaining.

funny to see so many out of towners commenting that toronto has the game on lock etc etc.

reality is, there's not many artists here that can actually live off their music and touring.

local rappers here just can't sell tickets consistently, and likely don't see that as the "business" but it is. they don't do shows much nor support other artists.
most would feel like the pinnacle of being in the local scene would be 1 mil views on youtube, and to be selling out a mod club (550 cap) :lolbron:

i'm not even hating but this is the truth :yeshrug:

Toronto has always been a city where R&B artists eat but rappers come from.

Weeknd, Dvsn, Party, Daniel Cesar etc can do shows eat and live off music

the trap rappers the kids love from the city who do views on youtube can't make a living off music here often. They are the most visible but have the least impact

always been a city where R&B artists eat? really?

how old are you? that scene didn't really exist until what like 9-10 years ago?

of course weeknd, dvsn and caesar are doing fine, they are mainstream artists with millions $$$$ backing them.

they have nothing in common with somebody like a chromazz, who does tuesday night shows at strip clubs and has never performed on a legit show.
