    Pushin P is quite literally a meme created specifically for the likes of TikTok

    And it’s working flawlessly

    I mean it’s genius lol I can’t even remotely hate on it

    The difference with Toosie Slide is that he literally sent it out to popular TikTokers to post and dance to before it was even released. It’s not like he dropped the song and it happened to blow up on TikTok, he specially made sure the song had a following on TikTok and then dropped the song.

    literally the perfect example

    their opinion is racially motivated. that’s the point

    It’s not racially motivated. You assume it’s racially motivated because A. You’re whiny and can’t handle criticism of the music you like. B. Have a narrow view of the world.

    If a black person says they fw Tyler or whatever over NoCap because it’s not real music are they racist too??

    Weeknd hasn’t posted since

    Since he said he don't care about sales let's see if he's going to congratulate Wunna on his #1

    I think it might be the only example outside of artists like pinkpantheress that grew their popularity thanks to tiktok

    Like it’s the only true “TikTok” song I could think of

    I honestly just hope he doesn’t abandon the album. Gasoline could be a hit with the right push

    literally what are you even talking about?

    i don’t even listen to much “street rap” but i can clearly see the frustration that @Htownwolf is voicing with these hipsters coming into the genre and literally s***ting on every single artist that isn’t a Fantano darling or is painted up as some sort of genius

    these people are the same exact ones who consider trap music/drill music “ghetto s***” and are told to turn it off in exchange for some milquetoast dad rock like f***ing Nirvana, if you want to pretend it doesn’t exist that’s on you, im not gonna act like these people aren’t all over the damn place

  • I hope y’all appreciate how hard it is to be a megastar

    People like drake make it look easy

    okay, and im saying they get this hipster taste from the way they are raised from their parents who look at rap as an inferior form of art which is often racially motivated. agree to disagree, because clearly we’re going in a circle now

    if that’s how it was conceived then point taken. if it was not however, it’s a pretty good example. i doubt it even would’ve existed without tik tok, and yes it would be “less organic” because you’re baiting for popularity instead of just making music

    it’s cool if you’re just looking to be successful, but if you’re looking to make quality music, appealing to the masses is only gonna get you so far

    i get it, but i don't. and that's ok lol i know this is a common view

    Weeknd probably already had an artsy fartsy fake deep quote ready for his #1
