Lil Pump had just turned 16 when he first came to the attention of Dooney Battle, co-founder of digital-first entertainment company Tha Lights Global. Hailing from the South Florida "SoundCloud rap" scene along with contemporaries like Smokepurpp, XXXTentacion and Ski Mask the Slump God, the pink-haired teenager born Gazzy Garcia had already amassed over 100,000 followers on Instagram, despite having released only a handful of songs at the time.

"He was the youngest in the wave actually really doing it," says Battle, "and his look was different than everybody else."

Battle, himself a South Florida native, knew what to do: tap his company’s 60 social media "influencers" to spread the music.

I think that agency may have been involved way longer than they’re saying. He might’ve been on a development deal for years prior to him taking off like Lourde was.

He looks like his sound is "accessible" to "everybody".

I find it amazing how you guys cannot tell a White person from an obvious Latino looking person.

Latino is a race now.

He's Cuban b.

Nah he’s Cuban or puerto ri or something like that

Today i learned cuban is a race.

Latino is a race now.

I was only addressing appearances. I said nothing of race.

Are you slow breh?

To be fair it's catchy and the video is good. He's a white Latino pop rapper for this era.

It does disturb me that this may be the era that rap loses its black identity

kids brehs he has the kids

10-15 yo ain't really fukkin with no nas like that.

But why does he have more than kodak and all the others?

This dude wasn't even a rapper, he even surpassed his darker skin friend who put him on, although his friend is even more garbage

 

[YouMadd?]

BECAUSE HIS MEME GAME IS STRONG.

You're really going to ask why someone who is light skin is getting more attention

Have you been living under a rock for the past 100 years

white and it bangs inda whip

 

[RareHunter]

The eminem effect

Em can actually rap though

Em can, he had no swag factor tho, if im being honest

Hes like 10 years younger than Uzi Vert

got the 12-15 year old crowd on lock judging from the youtube comments

Kodak, uzi and Xxx are no more than 21yrs old, uzi might be 23 max.

This is white ppl can never actually understand white privledge and pump is as vulgar as any other rapper, so they cnt use the other's content against them.

I just cnt stand when vultures like pump and post malone rap, then 10yrs down the line become lawyers or "country artist" like Miley Cyrus

Cause he came in with the sauce.. Then came in with a saw..
