Why has Kid Ink never blown up?

[The God Poster]

I get he writes ALOT for others...but he doesn't really lack anything major to atleast keep him from a 2nd/3rd tier level mainstream wise. Is his behind the scenes money that good

Who does he write for

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

He's linked up with Damizza (who shoved fukking shade shiest down our throat) and a DJ who was on the come up (white boy, forget his name now) so yeah, he's not exactly backed by nobodies.

While I like a number of songs he's on, he just has no personality himself and feels like a generic artist.

 

[lowkey0z]

tyga wannabe

 

[BK The Great]

tyga wannabe

was just about to say the exact same thing, Tyga's career launched and actually was poppin before this dude reached the masses.

 

[Loud Still Coolin]

Interesting was it DJ Rockstar and DJ Ill will? They use to host wiz mixtapes way back

possibly the most generic artist in recent memory. Like dude is the default template for a create-a-rapper mode in a video game or something..and he got on with a song called snapbacks and tattoos of all things

 

[SuburbanPimp]

Industry plant that never bloomed

Hella generic and cliche..... There was absolutely nothing unique about him

Always got great beats and features but he just didn't have "it"

Yeah it was Ill Will, dunno why I couldn't think of his name. Aiight dood too. Don't know what happened to Rockstar. They had good tapes, couple with YA BOY if you remember him.

He got/gets a ton of play on LA radio but so did Shade Shiest which the rest of the country didn't give a fukk about.
