God y’all just keep saying dumb s*** that makes me want to reply tho lmao

Bruh you just said Carti fans aren’t knowledgeable. How is that any different? We don’t need to hear about how you like weird music either lol. Some RYM ass s***

And I don’t have a single issue with Cartis music. Loved WLR, love the 4 singles he dropped. But if he does drop something I don’t like I’ll say it

Carti and Future some of the most protected artists in general lol u just gonna have to understand that.

“This artist deserves less credit for their art” isn’t really much of a criticism though

Wish more rap fans would understand and respect the voice being an instrument. Rap is not just about the words someone is saying

i would think after thug and all these leaked studio sessions it would be known

The voice has been an instrument for thousands of years… it’s called singing lol

And rapping.

Rap fans don’t acknowledge or understand the second part, which is why rap music usually gets judged by the literal lyrics the rappers are saying

ok now you just yapping, u aint even capping, u a ceritfied yapper like my b**** always yapping in my ear about bullshit

You replied to me saying this:

"Man shut the f*** up. Nobody gives a f*** what them music execs are doing to further pad their pockets. Rap still accounts for 59% of streaming and 51% of top streaming artists are rappers"

you said RAP accounts for 59% of all streaming (you living in 2016?)

then i give you cold hard facts showing you thats far from the case, then u reply back to me yapping saying R&B AND RAP account for ONLY 27%, meanwhile u just sliding in an entirely different genre of R&B into the mix WITH RAP and it's still only 27%, not even close to your made up number of 59%

now lemme give you some bigger facts cus i told ur b**** ass u dont even wanna see the top consumed albums for 2023, but since u yapping like my girl on a monday night talking about her day, lemme break it down for u:

there are a TOTAL of 5 RAP albums in the top 30 most consumed albums in 2023 which includes ALL METRICS not just spotify.

and just in case u bad at math like my b**** is, 5 out of 30 is 16% you bozo, now next time u come yapping about rap being dominant still, take a step back, log off KTT and go outside

TALM TOOOOO EMMMMMMM

It's not even debatable. Every single one of Travis albums smokes Carti's production wise

If Travis dropped any of those it'd be known as his worst album since he's known for production

No it is the production, the richer higher up u are u have access to premier beats

That is the beat carrying

It’s not because Carti is what makes all of those songs interesting

Stop Breathing is literally the same 2-bar loop for four straight minutes

What do you mean? This is top level talent

Who cares go listen to both of em

It’s a premier beat, look how Uzi made a knock off stop breathing (suicide doors) by purposely getting a similar beat from da same person
Then he start saying randomness

Da beats are memes itself

This just proved what I was saying in my comment. Suicide doors is ass compared to stop breathing lol

The first time I ever heard Stop Breathing, what stood out to me was Carti’s vocal performance, not the production

Also this. Stop Breathing is clearly a much better song, even though the production on Suicide Doors is arguably better and more fleshed out. Carti is the difference

Thanks for the dissertation

keep it pushing lil bro

and next time u wanna act like my b**** so badly, ima tell her to take a break for the week and u gone replace her, pause

your even using the arguments old heads were using years ago
u understand carti doesnt even use that much autotune right? Any rappers raw vocals usually doesnt sound the best thats how production works when someone is using autotune they work around it to use it as a tool

i cant believe im having this same bullshit to fight with as in 2018
What makes a good rapper is no longer lyrics bro, an artist can be great with melodies, delivery, adlibs, the whole wheel of ways a voice can be used on a track to enhance it. Its about the music. People like YOU hurt progress and are about 10 years late.

heres a question

IF carti is so carried by beats, why is he 30x the size of pierre? Even in 2019?
Hes the main producer behind most of his first 2 albums and a quarter of wlr how come even though he saves the ebst beats for the godly TLOP series, Carti completely laps him? It's because carti has a unique vocal style with this range and evolution, that makes good MUSIC. YOU might personally not like it but that level talent is something hundreds have tried to replicate and it takes work, you wouldnt be able to do it.

so instead of discrediting the different forms rap has evolved and progressed, why dont you just sit back and try to understand when something is out your element instead of persisting on this narrative to s*** on whatever is new
