Will Detroit ever get a big rapper that the city rallies around like Kendrick

[Formerly Black Trash]

All those artist had somebody who developed them. I'm not sure if these younger artists are willing to do that. Or if modern labels have a "Dr. Dre" to take them to the next level like K. Dot.

And Royce discussed this. These Detroit rappers ain't thinking about making mainstream hits. I mean if Sada Baby was developed (and didn't have his pops die or Sada's drug addiction battles) who knows.

Skilla seem like he good at making mainstream hits

If Vezzo, Babyface Ray, Dugg, Peezy, or Grizzley got as big as Kendrick did, you'd see the same thing.

Here is the detroit version of the pop out, Team Eastside vs. DBCO, last year:



seems pretty rallied...

I wish they came out with a high quality taped version of the event

He definitely the closest of the younger ones. And since Tik Tok popular he knows to be work that as well. But the irony though he doesn't like making that music. He just does it because his label expects it. So who knows how long he will play the game.

If some of yall supported Sean instead of being mad he isn’t a copy and paste detroit rapper like everybody else, then maybe we could yes

How much did Dre do for Kendrick?

I thought it was mostly Punch

Dre executive produced GKMC and was signed to Aftermath. So the Dre cosign was major. You can tell a Dre album and you could tell he executively produced it.

I meant in terms of actual development

I wonder who refined Kendricks style or if he mostly did it himself
