People confused why this song is doing such big numbers when songs like pushin P and what not seem bigger in the culture overall are missing the point. There's a huge demographic that isn't plugged into the culture, but a white rapper who has a sexy, catchy hook like this - yeah that will go beyond the normal hip hop demographic.

Lil baby is bigger in the hip hop world, but Jack has managed to tap into a larger demographic past it. We'll see if it goes past this song (assuming he doesn't have more songs with viral potential like this)

Nobody is angry. I don’t have a problem with Jack or his music. I’m just calling it how I see it.

That album cover s*** was clearly a strategic move by his team. The first in a long series of chess moves.

Y’all think any slightly negative observation (not even intended that way) is hating

You're trying to turn Jack's strategic moves to be like they're negative. Nobody is stopping Lil Baby from making strategic moves too. That's what you're supposed to do.

I’m not saying it’s a negative. I’m just calling it like it is. If y’all think it reflects negatively on him that’s yall

Jack has always been hanging around black folk that’s been in his music videos for years

You’re just angry at him for being successful because you don’t think a white man deserves to be in that spot @02Shaq

There’s nothing wrong w marketing but don’t try to put rappers that are made in a board room above real niggas that’s making real music.

The only time you bring it up in negative contexts. I never once even thought about the album cover like that it’s just a very normal album cover to me, signing autographs in a car. Didn’t notice the demographics of kids until you pointed it out as being some psychological marketing technique to make black folk listen to his music

You also didnt answer my question

What question. You’re firing comments at me every other minute lol

Jack: been rapping since middle school, dropping projects for almost a decade and didn’t pop off until 6 years deep in his pro career

Baby: signed immediately by Young Thug, kicked off his career with a Drake feature

Lets be honest with ourselves here…

So what you're saying is Harlow was ass for 8 years and Baby was good after 1 and a half?

Lil Baby was literally created in a board room man

Be honest if Jack had the SAME exact come up story as Lil Baby and say… Logic found him on the street and said “I’m gonna sign you and teach you to rap” would you be keeping this same energy?
