    Might be TikTok.

    That’s the only thing about the culture that I can see has changed.

    CRUNKSTAR out now

  • Jun 19, 2022

    A lot of artists like James Blake have come out saying that it’s forcing creatives to make his that can be successful on that platform.

    Which is scary to think about.

    Not y'all talking bout the damaging effects Tik tok having on the industry because Mr Toosie Slide flopping

    But seriously it's not that deep just Drake dropped album with no promo and people aren't feeling it and it's a bit left field from him. The song they were seemingly going for as first single weirdly trash for Drake too

    I guess the game has changed, numbers are just low in general. Jack's first week seems way more impressive now

    I know but there's something deeper than that. It's not like artists aren't trying for hit. Why didnt the public give songs like Sacrifice and N95 a chance? Cooped Up would be a #1 hit in 2019 but I think people's taste changed after the pandemic. I can't explain it but I think we're going to see "hits" change. I was surprised a song like Wait For U charted as good as it did

    Probably more than ever before, there's no "formula" for a hit anymore. It all boils down to what people connect with organically or what you can make go viral on TikTok.
