When talking about hip hop cliques, why do we always fail to mention Taylor Gang?

[Sad Bunny]

I mean we always talk about YMCMB, MMG and GOOD, but what about Juicy, Chevy, Lola, Wiz

or are they garbage?

 

[badvillain]

wiz shot himself in the foot with that garbage ass album and making it seem like selling out/simping is whats hot.

lola is only eyecandy, i prefer pre-oscar/mtv juicy, and chevy is whatever.

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

from a pure rap standpoint, its easily the worst crew out there

 

[SubLyminalz]

because them nikkas aint worth mentioning besides wiz.

chevy is


who else is in taylor gang anyway?

edit: i forgot about juicy j he is still dropping bangers but thats it.

he shot himself in the foot by going platinum and selling out all his shows since then??

when did he go platinum? on a single or rolling papers?

im talking in terms of relevancy and longevity. Dude lost a lot of fans going from kush & oj to rolling papers. Which in turn has led to him not being mentioned nearly as much by hip hop heads

the album sold like 800k+, the 2 singles are 1 mil+ i believe...

he lost some mixtape fans..and gained alot more mainstream fans...just what he set out to do..it happens to ALL artists

hes on that hippy stuff now, which is a bit risky...im sure an album or two down the road he'll be singin over guitars and shyt to be experimental...but hes definitely got a huge fanbase for the long haul

Is Taylor Gang even a real thing?

 

[Long Live The Kane]

I'm a big juice fan but I haven't even accepted or acknowledged him as a member of taylor gang...I've heard chevy I'm sure on wiz's shyt, but have zero actual recollection of anything he's ever said on wax...didn't know lola still rapped...as a group I don't think they've done a ton of a lot to get mentioned

what people fail to realize is that when you sell out to the mainstream, you are selling out to kids aged 13-20. Those kids eventually grow older and get tired of what they listened to as kids. Thus 50's downfall and a lot of other artists.

Kanye, Jay, Nas and a few others have transcended to keep their core fanbase + mainstream.

Wiz is good for the rest of his life, anyone with a number one single will be able to perform it for years, but his Taylor Gang fad died quick.
