All Wale needs is a Miguel/Jhene Haiku/Kelani hook assist and he’ll be back with another hot single

What's wale new screen name on here? I like how he came in and was taking them blows when they was clowning that single with lady Gaga and calling him a Nigeria scammer. I don't think he's posted her since no hands dropped 
Hopefully he can create another TAAN.

I mean Southerplayalistic is top 3 but it's not their best album

his lane is so clear cut and since ****** dont rap he should be murking it but he’s too emotional and thinks he deserves to be in that drake/kendrick/cole class instead of just working until people naturally mention him with them

I mean I can see some discussion about Southernplayalistic place in the top 5. Smooth, dope *** intro to Kast, but Atliens, Aquemini, Stankonia were some transformative ****. Then you got Speakerboxx/love below in its own lane too.

He has this need to be liked that just makes him corny. From beefing with nobodies on NT when you're popping to trying to fight a basketball announcer you would have thought he would have grown as a person by now which would extend to his artistry. But ****, they say the age you get famous is the age you remain.

N_ hate Wale cause he backs up his bravado with facts and skill. I will never understand how dudes in this era of dickriding, hate Wale, but support everyone else who brags or stunts on people. It’s mind blowing.
Blac Youngsta has made a living off trying to stunt, other entertainers do the same... but Wale is like the outlier who everyone hates, for doing the same thing as the majority is doing. That baffles me, smh.

Blac Youngsta's fans are hood _'s and rachet h0ez. For somebody with no talent other than being funny he's doing good.

What makes Drake "Drake" though without the "tastemakers" as they call it?
I'm saying in the era when they were on their come up, being an independent artist wasn't as a big of a thing as it is now, as far as I can remember. To bring ASAP into the discussion, want to say they operated on a independent level but made a deal with PoloGrounds for distribution and marketing of the ASAP brand. Same with OddFuture and SonyRED.
Now for a artist in Wale's position to where he for the most part was either shunned, overlooked, whatever...to lose a major label deal in a climate where hip-hop music is so saturated, how can he further progress his rap career given the stigma around his name?

Wale brand and **** is just garbage right now. He's perceived by a lot of people to be this extremely sensitive, arrogant, curmudgeon-y type dude and that almost directly clashes with the type of music he makes and the brand that he wants to push. He seem like a good dude whose really passionate about his ****, just real insecure, and the way that projects just puts people all the way off. To the point that he's seen as a meme.
Perception goes a loooong way. Its how Tom Brady can throw fits and be seen as "fiery" while other people throwing fits is seen as childish.
A good brand is what holds you down during your "low" points, it can almost be like an insurance plan. Pair that with a strong dedicated fanbase and that puts you much closer to the liberation that every artist seeks.
The reality tho is all of this is a lot easier said than done
