ITT: Rap artists that didn't start at the bottom

>>73336015
you start

>>73336022
at the bottom

Does anyone else find it funny that the only reason he got that record deal was his skin-tone was lighter in color?

Kanye West
Earl Sweatshirt

>>73336015
only from US ?

Drake has really fallen to irrelevancy

I feel like One Dance really exposed him and no one has liked him since

>>73336032
It's a good marketing move. I know a lot of white guys who got into hip-hop because of Drake. Otherwise they probably felt alienated by it.

>no one has liked him since

lmao, go watch a concert video. Crowds still go absolutely nuts for him

>>73336058
>video was posted in 2015

>>73336058
His One Dance performance on SNL was his end

Also his fascistic insistence on none of his music being on YouTube

>>73336040
is one dance realy a rap song? the OP said it: i think it's more a latino-pop song...

>>73336038
>US
Drake's autralian you fucking retard

>>73336216
was talkin about the groove, don't care where he came from

>>73336038
If you were born in the US you didn't start at the bottom

>>73336266
Lmao, how ignorant can one be?

I guess hopsin didn't start at the bottom

>>73336216
U mean Canadian dummy

>>73336216
he's french you fucking autist

>>73336299
that's what I say to you. come anywhere in south america and you'll see how hypocritical it is to rap about the struggle in those neigborhoods with huge fucking houses, technology everywhere, dollars being moved instead of the most worthless fucking currencies, decent food everywhere, literally free checks... fuck you.

>>73336887
Many black neighborhoods are crime ridden shitholes which prevents people from succeding in life. It's not africa-tier bad but you will almost definitively struggle if you're born into such an area

>>73336038
>>73336216
what are you talking about? he's Jamaican

He has a jew ancestry.

>>73336887
I'm with that other anon. You seriously do not know what you are talking about, latinfag. Keep idealizing my country, which you clearly only know from what you see on TV.

>hurr durr my country isn't actually nice it's shitty like yours anon!

allrighty then, I just don't get why you like to talk shit about your own nation

>>73337092
Lol, you have terrible reading comprehension. Are you even following your own conversation? You said:

>come anywhere in south america and you'll see how hypocritical it is to rap about the struggle in those neigborhoods with huge fucking houses, technology everywhere, dollars being moved instead of the most worthless fucking currencies, decent food everywhere, literally free checks... fuck you.

Now, you're a fucking idiot for saying that because you clearly don't know this country. Is the average person in Brazil worse off than the average American? Yes, but that is not even part of the conversation. You are claiming these rappers are hypocritical because there is no possible way they come from a background that is worse off than that of South Americans.

just stop posting and stop embarrassing yourself.

>You are claiming these rappers are hypocritical because there is no possible way they come from a background that is worse off than that of South Americans.

I stand by it. Like <10% of your rappers actually fucking struggled... there are too many of you mfs getting off on saying your life was shit when it clearly wasn't.

>>73337235
>n-no I'm suffering more
>no I am
Fuck music

>>73337235
Okay...but now you're making a different point. Also, Drake isn't even American. He's Canadian and from Toronto and clearly came from a place of privilege.

>there are too many of you mfs getting off on saying your life was shit when it clearly wasn't.
mmm, I don't know anon. The only ones I have heard talking about struggling clearly did struggle. Also, I think you are forgetting the unique place of the African American community in the US. You can be among "huge fucking houses, technology everywhere, dollars being moved instead of the most worthless fucking currencies, decent food everywhere, literally free checks" but that doesn't change anything if your home life is awful (absent parent, drugs etc.).

this explains that growing emo wigger trend perfectly

He grew up in Forest Hill, Toronto, Which in case you don't know, is one of the richest neighborhoods in Toronto. So he didn't start from the bottom.

source: I live in Toronto

>>73337336
Yeah. Also, more white people live side-by-side with poorer black people now. Although, most "emo wiggers" are just a product of the internet. They consume black art in their small white communities and proceed to appropriate it. Even Asians are doing this now, for example Rich Chigga. They're even more egregious. They have almost no communication with the black community and are entirely a product of the internet and social media.

>>73337387
what I meant is, it explains the growing emo wigger trend because everybody want to talk about their shitty life while living the most dreamlike fucking lifestyle you can think of, stuffed with drugs and entertainment and dopamine and shit.

this is literally why you are depressed en masse. thanks to your shitty music you are now unable to say thanks for your life and instead make it about the bad shit and everything you lack... you brainless idiots.

>>73336216
He's Puerto Rican you moron

>>73336044
So you know a lot of faggots
