ITT most obvious industry plants

>>72337564
Is he actually retarded?

frank ocean?

>>72337564
Travis might be a chameleon of every rapper in the industry but he certainly wasn't a plant. Dude slaved under T.I. for years before he linked up Kanye and blew up

I liked Rodeo a lot desu

>>72337579
>came up with odd future
>plant

you're retarded

>>72337564

you should have started with someone who's actually a industry plant like Lorde, Bruno Mars, Lil Yachty etc.

>>72337584
this travis was a producer for like half a decade before owl pharaoh came out

>>72337601
This. Rodeo is unironically a good album

>>72337617
Too bad it wasn't made by him.

Rae Sremmurd ill always be the most obvious answer

Literally mike willmadeit's record label spelled backwards

>>72337617
I personally like all of his full projects even though Birds was a little bland

>>72337642
>"""his""'

>>72337634
>>72337579
you idiots need to google the term "industry plant" and you'll see why it doesn't apply to most of these people

>>72337592
nigga he was planted in odd future when they were blowing up, that shit is so obvious...he was never in any public shit or interviews and he barely interacted with them guys as far as the public could them...

wake up...

This fucker. I downloaded his album and literally the only good songs are his two singles. It pisses me off too because it was hard to find a link that wasnt reported.

>>72337656
technically Travis did the most work on the album because you hear him the most so yes I'm still calling it """""his""""" album just like TLOP is still a Kanye album

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodeo_(Travis_Scott_album)#Track_listing

he's just like beyonce or kanye

>>72337701
I see Jacques Webster name appear by every single track while no other person is and I do believe that's Travis' real name. So you haven't proven my original statement wrong

>>72337728
>implying beyonce and kanye also make most of work on their albums just because their names are mentioned on every single of their tracks

kate bush. her wealthy parents basically bought her way into the music industry

>>72337564
this is good b8

>>72337661
LOOOOOOL

Kdot been doing this since like 04 faggot

took him like 10 years to become an overnight success

yeah even on ktt we discuss travis very strange and mysterious come-up

most of the time it's bc these guys grow up under former musicians who have connects to A&Rs or producers....the hip hop scene is surprisingly small but very hard to get into the important circles

Houston, Chicago, NY, Compton and ATL are the staple/classic areas (Toronto is new with Drake)

Travis is from Houston as is Beyonce. Even Drake spent a lot of time out there and so did ASAP Rocky

if you have some talent and go thru the Houston gauntlet and meet the right ppl you will probably blow...same with ATL

it's not that hard to connect the dots ppl

>>72338492
a black person typed this. I can tell.

>>72337672
You mean Location and that other song? Lmao, the whole album is garbage. His accent is literal trash and I don't know how people unironically listen to and defend this shit.

>>72338531
>black people
>on ktt
>ever

Travis isn't a plant wtf. Go research his come up he just connected with the right people.

In albums where the amount of writers seems like a lot, you need to take into account the producers and any samples used. For example, the track "Pornography" on Rodeo is produced by Sonny Digital, Metro Boomin, and Mike Dean, the lyrics are written by Travis, and it samples the song "Expectation" by ACHE, so the writers of that song are listed as well. That's whyon Beyonce's album Lemonade, for example, you had artists like Soulja Boy ("turn my swag on" interpolation on "Hold Up") and OutKast (horns from "SpottieOttieDopaLiscious" sampled on "All Night") credited, even though they aren't actually involved with the album itself. Now whether you like the music or not is entirely up to you, but I thought it would be helpful to know this stuff.
