Will Pusha T, 45 years old, ever give up his cocaine gimmick?

[L $ C]

Push is good in his element.

I think lot of casual/mainstream fans here like to hate him because he’s in his 40’s and has maintained relevance by just being able to rap his ass off in a traditional emcee sense: wordplay, vocab, metaphors, symbolism, rhyme patterns, etc. with no melodies and trend-hopping. He’s the last one left really.

Everything about him on paper sounds like he should be just another washed 90’s coke rapper but he isn’t.

standing next to kanye did wonder, yes he did his part but it did wonders the same

It’s really not that good bro.

this and daytona were both good rap albums at minimum, great rap albums really

More cocaine raps. Rhyme from the perspective of a scale. You can never have enough rhymes about cocaine and Pusha is very skilled at rhyming about cocaine.

Y’all the type of nikkas to wanna hear Young Jeezy make a song about his childhood. If he ain’t talking bout selling dope in that childhood, I don’t wanna hear it. fukk outta here.

Nobody complain when 4’2 Dugg horse jockey sized body ass talk about selling heroin in every damn bar. More cocaine rhymes Push. fukk these nikkas.

This.

I remember when Raekwon was promoting "OB4CL2" and some random interviewer asked him why he was still rapping like he's a drug lord.

He hit the

and said "because that's what the fans want to hear."

He was legit confused by the question.

Cats talk as if they want to hear Pusha T rapping like De La Soul.

Fred.

Pusha T fans just expose their idol all the time, imagine championing a lack of versatility when it comes to the subject matter of his music. All he did was shown us that he hasn't grown artistically in over 20 years of rapping.

Wayne 40 and still rapping and lean and x

Wayne 40 and still rapping and lean and x

And Wayne still does both of those clearly. So what’s wrong with rapping about his real life?

Push solo music or career has never had an impact on hip hop

If he's so irrelevant, why are you here

But he rap about shooting shyt and only person he ever hit was himself. Drake rapped about catching a body but grew up richer than 99% of America. You dudes just need to let us real hip hop fans have our Benny The Butcher, Nas, Banks, Gibbs, Pusha, Ransom, Westside Gunn, and you guys can have lil baby and drake. You guys want to dance and hear autotune, dress in tight designer clothes.. We want to wear timberlands and Wear Levi’s 501, oversized champion hoodies. Ain’t none of us going to see each other’s opinion and agree with it. Just time for y’all to let us be.

What do you mean standing next to Kanye lol? This is such a silly criticism. Kanye chose to fukk with him because he admires his rhyming ability.

I never understood why you post here. You have the music taste of a 14 year white female pop music fan. Why do you post in a hip-hop forum? It makes no sense.

 

[Wargames]

Black don’t crack so he still looks like he is in his 30’s

 

[Womb Raider]

I remember 4 or 5 years ago when Juicy J was the same age Future is right now and The Booth was clowning Juicy for being old and rapping about popping pills and sipping lean.


Future's old ass is about to drop a tape talking about the same shyt and The Booth is like...


That's another reason why The Booth has fallen off a cliff and died.

His sonic range is fukking crazy tho. Yeah he talking the same shyt every album but he got a different flow on every track.

 

[Cheese McNair]

Most rappers stay in their lane because most rappers like to think the rap game is like the drug game.

If you’re known for selling coke and thats what most of your customer base does, why switch up and sell heroin?

This is a very KTT-esque response breh
