who are you thinking of? I can't think of a rapper more formulaic than 6ix9ine.

edit: does it work? Of course. That doesn't mean it's good.

I do find 6ix9ine's antics to be entertaining, don't get me wrong. Yeah, he has some more melodic songs, but on those he's often mimicking the featured artists to the point where he sounds almost identical. I thought it was Lil Baby doing the chorus the first time I heard TICTOC lol.

I don't think it's ridiculous to want an artist to progress. But I'm not one of those people who gives a f--- that he snitched. If I was facing decades on RICO charges on crimes I wasn't even really involved in h--- yeah I'd snitch and 95% of you would too.

Gunna and Baby I'll give you to an extent, but I think they have more range than you think and are only getting better. Migos I also think you don't give enough credit as I've said before. My only complaint about Migos is that in terms of song structure they should switch it up from:
1. Quavo verse
2. Quavo hook
3. Offset verse
4. Quavo hook
5. Takeoff verse
6. Quavo hook

Cuz they do that too often. It doesn't make or break songs for the most part, but a lot of times their most interesting songs are when they switch it up.

Anyway:

Respect this guy for snitching. It's a good message for the kids to turn in these worthless g--- members. s--- artist though who will prob get capped any time now.

Who cares though? It's an entertainment persona that he got too deep in. I never believed this dude was actually hard personally.

50 rapped about "stay[ing] high all the time (I smoke that good s---)" and popping x and dude doesn't even drink. In Prodigy's memoir he talks about his time at G-Unit and how at parties and events 50 would sip on a glass of champagne for an hour and only drink half of it.

UGK talks about selling mass quantities of blow all the time and in reality they just flipped some packs for six months to fund the beginning of their music career.

The vast majority of rappers who talk about murdering people have probably never murdered someone lol

For the most part, it doesn't make the music any less compelling to me if the rapper is acting as a character or exaggerating. I don't find most of 6ix9ine's music that compelling but it has nothing to do with whether or not he was actually treyway or whatever.

This is kinda what I mean, take future's album the wzrd. As a playlist guy I can definitely appreciate most of these songs but if u just listen to the first 3 songs;







All 3 are nice but dont u agree they sound really d--- similar production wise? I do tbh. Compare this to

Dark Fantasy
Gorgeous
All of the lights (?)

Ofc not trying to compare those 2 albums just the way that the 3 songs I listed share almost no similarity. So it really feels like 3 new and unique songs.

Bad Guy
Rhyme or reason
So much better

An album not as good but still, every song has a completely unique sound regardless of how u feel about it. When I listen to a new future or thug album especially thug is creative enough w his flows and voice but if I keep hearing the same patterns I kinda get bored quickly. Thats when I like it when he does stuff like For Yall, Take Care, She Wanna Party. Again I dont mind him using it, that leak Die Young is nice as f---, but not for 15 songs in a row pls lol

That is the main complaint I got w some artist today. And it doesn't help that most new artist try to ride the same wave instead of trying a new sound.
