Tekashi 69 lookin at RICO



It might not be worth the trouble but Elliot Grange gotta do everything in his power to get hin out at least to promo this project or else its pretty much a waste.

The type of music he makes not gonna survive being shelved for months.
 
That link you posted might be the worst article I’ve ever read.

i was tryna find that quote where Wayne was replying to the “hip hop is dead” thing but I enjoyed the memory lane trip of the mid 00’s.

point being that when Wayne was a 20 something rewriting these rules there were these same convos and now people hold him in that Nas and Jay convo. Its just funny how cyclical this stuff is.

Actually, getting locked up is all the promotion he needs.
 
Maybe folks just don't like the music

when is this not a possibility

im just saying with tekashi people already dont wanna like it because of all the f’ery they see before u even really listen to his music

even with gummo when i showed it to my more “country” bros, they couldnt get past the rainbow hair and gangbanging at the same time. so i feel its the same nationwide, dudes who consider themselves more thoro or whatever not really tryna rock with him regardless

If he goes down, its gonna be in the news just like him getting arrested. Promotion done. Mf'ers gonna buy it BECAUSE he's locked up. A rapper getting locked up has damn near the same effect as dying.

Can't they dislike his image and dislike his music without the two things being connected?

I cant even really say that because in rap they are so intertwined. How you feel about what a ***** saying is based on their look, dress, mannerisms, where they from (nobody wanted to believe tough talk from Canada)

Its possible sure but what about his music is that bad compared to what the average ***** makes. It’s generic street **** topic wise and his voice, energy and beat selection is what differentiates him.

Again, if he wasn’t him, it would just be some cool trappy **** ****** wouldnt skip but because he the hottest **** in the world + all his “violations” ppl wanna take a polarizing stance on it.
 
As a matter of fact a lot of mainstream rap music is interchangeable we just like a ***** overall swag and vibe he is selling us.

It’s hard to put into words and tangible things which is why the culture is so unpredictable and a young man’s game. It’s selling different energies and tropes of urban youth. On a mainstream level....
 
I just realized something crucial in this case. 69 wasn’t that smart. I say that because he was involved in street activity. When your involved in the streets, you have to always think about the negative what if’s that might come around your way. I say that, to say this. The majority of his money was inside of a bank (his accounts). Did y’all notice that Shotti, his manager, made over 2. Something million off of him, but it’s reported that he only has $60,000 in his bank account. Seems like Shotti was thinking ahead while 69 wasn’t. I didn’t know the feds could seize your parents accounts also.

I know people who’ve caught fed cases. But I never knew they could do that. So can they basically do that to anybody that’s close to the person who their trying to take down, even if they didn’t even commit a crime. I’ve heard if it happening to people who where around and knew of the activity, but the Feds would have to know or have evidence that you where in the know. Crazy, they even took moms $. I wonder if they have evidence that he put some of his money in her account. If her account has abnormally more cash in it than she usually does, then it safe to say I know why they did it then.
 
Music by young kids is not made FOR oldER folks
Very true. Brain development has a lot to do with it. Sounds/beats appeal more rather than lyrics. You’ll hear them recite every word to a song, then ask them what they just rapped about....they always talk about the chorus part lol

69 def wasn't a street dude. And the street dudes around him wasn't really schooling him. Just using him like a chick with a good job that love thugs.

At the end of the day only one with money and continuing to make money is the label. Rinse, repeat, find the next rapper.

You really think folks gonna care or wanna hear from 69 or Shmurda even 5 years from now?

What comes next after these fruity hair colored face tat crash dummy rappers?

What about when Jackson 5 was lead by Michael Jackson? Candy Rain by Soul For Real Nas Wrote and recorded illmatic at 17 etc.
Soul for Real was targeted towards younger women

Rap has always been a young man's game. Target audience isn't middle aged folks. (Nas)

Jackson 5 was also targeted a younger-ish fan base.

My point is, who gives a damn that WE (older folks) don't like Tanahashi69?

It ain't for us.

So to call him trash or whatever is status quo, that is USUALLY what oldER golks say about music done by people much younger than them.

They're intertwined, but that stuff has differing levels of importance from person to person. There are definitely folks who care to the point that it paints their perception of his art (for better or worse) but some folks are ignorant to what he has going on and really couldn't care less. They just want a catchy song.

I just don't believe that every person needs knowledge of his extracurricular antics in order to have valid thoughts on his music.
 
I disagree with rap being a young man's game, it used to be the case only b/c the genre as a whole was young so there weren't any older rappers yet. But now, all the top earners in the genre for the most part are the older rappers

1. How much POPULAR music are those old heads putting out?

2. Sure, they are earning large sums of $ but that is duento longevity, not because they are as HOT as up and coming acts
