    BRAVE

    The most dominant song in the country for the last 2 months straight is not even half as catchy or memorable as the bottom half of the top 20 at any period before this year

    Pop yeah

    rap i don't agree at all, it's the same, if not better

    So Be It would be doing 1m+ a day minimum before this year

    Kinda crazy that people really believe the botting stuff lmao

    Numbers have greatly tumbled for everyone though, there's no denying

    Slime Language 2 was ass, filled with artists smaller than JackBoys 2, with a lead artist a lot smaller than Trav

    Slime Language 2 107k streaming units
    Jack Boys 2 a few years later 72k

    chromokopia -> new album streaming units down 50%

    Cool? That has nothing to do with bots. People are just tired about rap

    I’m not here to argue with you anyway

    you'd have to be willfully ignorant to pretend like spotify numbers haven't been down considerably compared to a year ago, and quite honestly the "everyone hit their head and forgot how to write hit songs" excuse only goes so far.

    doesn't have to be bots though, it could be other changes to the algorithm. they might have changed autoplay so it isn't as concentrated on a handful of songs.

    Slime language 2 had way bigger artists on it than Jackboys 2 so obviously it outsold and Chromokopia had a much bigger scaled rollout than this tyler album

    slime language 2 also had a full week of tracking, a mid-week deluxe, a ton of big features, gunna is pretty much as big as thug, and i believe people who buy merch/cd bundles get a download too so some of them would probably not be streaming it

    it was also litered with artists that people don't give a f*** about which made it a hard listen though

    it only really had Drake, Travis, Gunna. Jack Boys 2 had damn travis scott on every song

  • Jul 22, 2025

    jackboys 2 didn't even manage to outstream its seven track predecessor from five years ago.

    tylers was a surprise drop tbh, chromakopia had a lil small rollout with some s*** being premiered a nd a song before im pretty sure
    Jackboys 2 was simply ass and caused people to turn it off. Terrible mixing will literally deter people away on top on whatever bad selectioned beats

    I'm not even ssaying its bots for sure btw

    just hard to believe like 30-50% of rap listeners have randomly all decided to stop listening all at the same time, in the last few months

    makes no sense

    The music is WEAK. It’s as simple as that. Rap has been creatively stagnant for 6 years now

    this has been said every year for like 5 years now

    the quality isn't way worse than prev years

    yet this is the first time numbers have greatly tumbled

    What are some 2025 songs that should’ve been hits then?

    People have been saying this since like 2019

    Yet this is the first time we've seen a giant sudden drop

    if this was listening habits you'd see a gradual decrease, we haven't seen that

    Look at GNX's performance man

    It’s not like there was a huge rap beef last year or anything that may have influenced some people’s overall feelings about modern day rap music

    The album was garbage asf but having Uzi, Gunna, lil baby and Meek on there def helped it out a lot with the numbers. Jackboys 2 only got Future and carti doing the same recycled s*** and none of the songs on there as catchy as Ski was.

    Rap was doing stupid numbers right after that though?? Carti's single was some of the most insane numbers ever lmao

    so was Tyler's album, then GNX
