What Happened to Sheck Wes?

- Опубликовано: 25 ноя 2021
- When it comes to having a colossal mega-hit song, the immediate assumption is that there’s only positives to take away from that. One minute, you’re just another rapper who’s struggling to get noticed. The next, one of your tracks suddenly takes you on a journey to the heart of culture. So, where could there possibly be a downside?
For Sheck Wes, this is a predicament that confronted him when he likely least suspected it. As rather than being the launchpad for further hits, his massive success is something that he’s become stranded in the shadow of. And due to a storm of controversy, may be unable to ever escape.

It's hard to be a long term success with a major cultural impact when you're main song has no subject matter or uniqueness
True he make concert music
that’s why u actually listen to an artist’s discography to see what their other songs have to offer..
Oooh bars
It does have subject matter he’s taking bout getting females you should try it sometime
@@ketchumplace it’s not even about females, he said in his genius he’s referring to labels calling his phone wanting to sign him.
Getting accused of domestic violence/abuse is definitely something that can end your career and unless you have evidence that you are innocent you can’t really get in the public eye’s good graces again
Chris brown seems to be doing just fine
@@HardLiquor45 True but he still gets called out on the internet and has people that will never fw him. Also, he had a long successful career before with a die hard fanbase so its harder for the public to permanently ban him. And they definitely tried to lol
I wish it was like that
@@HardLiquor45 it more so affected his acting career, after the incident only played in 3 movies since & none of them were lead or important roles. The film industry for sure blackballed him.
@@HardLiquor45 nah don't forget it took CB over a decade to have people let the situation die out, he lost tons of money and went to jail and was on probation for years, he served his justice
I never actually listen to his full album until recently but that shit is fire and I can’t wait for him to drop another project
Fr gmail Kyrie chippi chippi all bangers
In 2023 I can safely say ppl slept on Sheck
@@DodgeHammercock yea his features on Stick and his cut feature on FE!N were fire
mudboy is one of the most creative trap albums of the 2010s im excited for what he does next but he needa grow up a lil fr
I'm all here for confidence, especially for us Black folks who have denied ourselves of it for so long. But there's something immature or narcissistic about the idea that anyone deserves fame. You shouldn't want to be in the NBA, win a Grammy, and win a Nobel Peace Prize if you have nothing to say about the passion you have for things that will earn you that. It's different than when Kanye brags about his accolades, because we see the passion for music there (5 beats a day for 3 summers). This is more like an entitlement to being known and adored by everybody despite the fact that you haven't given them anything an return (other than your own greatness). I never looked much into the allegations about Sheck but in all honesty it's not hard to imagine him acting impulsive, selfish, and immature in a relationship because that is how he operates most of the time.
He was still a kid through all this.
@@johnindigo5477 True. And if he is willing to be accountable for his actions I don't think he should be forever condemned by his mistakes. I guess I'm more worried about the yes-man boys' club of the industry, which is where a mostly harmless, cocky kid can quickly transform into a serial offender before anyone notices.
Facts
Well spoken
Bro what do you mean without passion? It’s ok to want to achieve things just to do it? People are passionate about being successful that should be enough to want to achieve anything.
Sheck's music is fire asf. Even if he isn't as popular, i'm looking forward to his next project.
Same bro
Project? He made one song
@@claysoggyfries he has a whole album out..
@@AdamNeri Too bad nobody knows about it
@@claysoggyfries shit went gold no features..
Couldn’t we also account for some people who flock to a popular song without checking out the artist behind it? I feel like that’s got to be part of the entertainment side of things.
@RunningOnEmpty That’s exactly my point. People only have time to listen to the most popular songs of someone’s discography, with even less ambition to look into the other songs if that one song is on the radio.
That's how ppl are programmed plus ppl assume the artist will have another immediate banger song.
Right. the average modern day attention span isn’t built for that tho. I mean look at TikTok. It has slowly became the biggest app ever and is known for these short clips that DONT have to occupy your attention too much. Same with music. notice how a lot of songs don’t have a third verse anymore.
That's the history of music period. There has always been One Hit Wonders.
He was caught on tape about to give his ex Justine Skye the hands and than she dumped him for Goldlink who had that one song “money all around me” or whatever it’s called, that’s the sheck Wes story.
😭😭 accurate
The song is called white walls I think, he straight up says "fuck sheck wes". I remember the whole Justine thing, that was brazy, homie jumped a fence to throw hands, tf😂
He literally just wants to play basketball more then rapping
goldlink literally disrespected mac miller, tf he know?
The song is called Crew
Sheck Wes just don’t drop shit.. that’s the problem. When he hypes up his music, people talk about him, for now he just not doing shit but playing ball but I respect the grind
No it isn't. Kendrick didn't have a single song for over 4 years and yet people are still checking for him.
There's another problem besides that.
I went to see sheck in 2018 live and the crowds were insane for him , it’s crazy now how much he’s fallen off , I could never be a rapper , way to much pressure
He didn't fall off lol he just doesn't release music, just saw him at rolling loud, one of the best sets all weekend
@@coast7686 Yeah wtf he didn't fall off? I was RL 2021 too. The set was crazy. He just needs to release new music. What's it been like 3 years?
@@Wangan_W right bro his first album was great but he took a long ass break making music
Gotta love 360 deals 😂
😓 Flatbush Zombie’s could never
@@tekkadawn6685 of course they wouldnt take that deal, they're better off chilling in the Palm Trees
@@awesomebeast7509 GLORIOUS DEAD RECORDINGS BOI
Trav did him dirty
😂😂😂😂😂
A lot of people saying he fell off don’t see him having the best sets at rolling loud. He has a strong fan base he just hasn’t been dropping music.
I was at that set it was crazy asf. Hope he drops soon
lol facts just because a rapper not in the spotlight everyday doesnt mean he fell off
Falling off comes in two forms 1. Being the popularity or hype being them has fallen resulting in less views or etc. 2. Being the actual quality of the music diminishing resulting in either less attention or views. This nigga fell off because he nowhere near as big as he was when I was still in HS. He may have his niche fan base but it doesn’t change the fact that he fell off
@@Eli-akad depending on when he drops this new album it’ll decide if bro fell off again bro got support from Travis label all he needs to do is drop
sheck make good music and got good connections he could pretty easily make a comeback i feel
facts 💯
wait till the album drop 😈
Facts
Man in Fall 2018, when I first started attending College, I was going to a lot of frat parties, and this was played at every single one. And everytime, everyone sang along to all the words with the "HOOOOOOOES".
Hard to recover from the last two women that you were with accusing you of being a beater. It will always be in the background.
Carti and uzi did that too and they’re huge
sheck is still on top prolly the best live performer rn he ain’t fall off he jus chillin
u spittin 🗣
@@AdamNeri if you think about it besides don t he prolly got hold it down for cactus jack
@@dking000 him and Don T be destroying festivals 🔥🔥🔥🔥
He tried to beat up his ex and then moved to France, not much more to it.
France?! Why?
@@ms.x1669 the cheese taste better there
France. He’s performed in the US several times this year
@@malcolmxpanther well he plays professional Basketball in France now, all you gotta do is look it up lol
Lol he didn't beat up no one , he literally was training this whole time applied fir NBA draft didn't get picked then went to paris to play there he number 7 in paris basketball team
Love the content of the videos, keep them coming!!!
Unfortunately, he definitely fell off. Sheck Wes is too busy playing professional basketball like J Cole did. His labels don't know what they are doing. Travis Scott is dealing with people suing him for the whole Astro World controversy right now. Kanye West is trying to fix his marriage with Kim Kardashian and waiting for her to leave Pete Davidson. lol
those are both very recent events
Naw he got caught up with that sexual assault ish, got black balled by the industry, Travis included
These things just happened, sheck fell off years ago
Lol artists "fall off" cause fans like yall stop supporting. I wish fans started to take more responsibility for that
How has he fallen off if he is still doing shows. He got featured on Travis recent album. He is also a fashion model he will never have to beg for money
what happened to sheck wes?
me: nothing
the video: exactly
I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS 🙏🏾😭😭😭
White girls still love Mo Bamba
Sheck wes said he is insecure about his voice not fitting in on songs that's why he didn't release alot of songs and is trying an alternative route ..but its crazy his shows are still the best than 95% of the top rappers yet he hasn't released for a long time
I still listen to mudboy, casually waiting for him to drop his second album
It’s unfortunate bc his music is different and creative and great. But he just barely drops
facts
Yo I still rock wit Mudboy! That shiii go hard!
Factsss
🎤😆 I LIVE A I LIVE A MUDBOY LIFESTYLE 🔥🔥🔥
WE NEED THE NEXT PROJECT
Thanks 💪🏽👼🏻💙
Part of it honestly is being on a Rapper label. Not just one but two. Huge difference. A label run by people behind the scenes is much different than a label by artists who all have their own albums/movements/schedules etc to focus on. It would be hard to get me to sign to a rapper label. Some work really well but others don't. Signing to Kanye is extremely different and difficult. You can't get with Kanye them and think they really finna sit with you at every step of the way. They want you to be your own monster and work hard as hell. Big Sean was on Good Music for some years before he actually dropped his first album and had those hits. He was grinding really hard. I think achieving a mega hit or success so early on really confuses you on how hard you're actually supposed to be working.
Everyone please learn from this, short term goals that lead toward the long term goal. Can't just hope to be big because you feel you should be. Journeys are taken step by step.
chippi chippi still cold
Good video
He’s a performer, he’s a legendary performer
he'll always have that one song we all liked for a few years
I will say after seeing some of the pics of him in this slideshow he def needa be on his modeling shit too while he still young
Sheck beat up Justine Skye, fell off musically, then wanted to be a pro basketball player.
No he didn't because there wasn't any proof
Actually he did. The case docsare online. She posted proof of Travis friends knowing what happened...
@@mojaslatt what proof? I haven't seen it yet
@@mojaslatt send proof then
@@mojaslatt waiting for that proof big dawg🤣
6:16, He got exactly what he asked for.
He’s 23…
Its not really a fall off he just doesnt drop shit
facts
Facts
That’s still a fall off. Not dropping music is just one of the causes
@@matthewsmith635 i aint worried he got the music and the connections to make a comeback 🤷♂️
@@AdamNeri ok
It’s 2023 and I’m just now finding this
What you mean what happened to him? He fell off like expected. We been saying that he's another Desiigner. But Desiigner is much more likeable. Thats the difference. It is what it is.
Desiigner is lowkey coming back a bit too. Not necessarily chart-wise, but people put respect on Desiigner's name now. He's actually alright at making dark banger type songs and people recognize that now.
@@brad6546 yea that's true. he chill too so yea
But sheck actually has good music and is one of the best performers in the game
@@mannyjohnson4855 💯
Yeah nah nothing designer has done is touching mo bamba
What screen recorder do you use?
These man's videos go hard and it doesn't get enough credit.
This the first time in hip hop we’re we cancelled a rapper for abusing woman , I was very proud of hip hop for that. I was a big shec Wes fan at the start of his career but ever since he laid hands on Justine sky , dropped his music entirely.
So anyone can make an accusation, and y'all will keep cancelling them before it's proven? Is this why cops shoot first and then make accusations? Modern Feminism was promoted by the government as a psy-op, so not even surprised.
I had never heard of him until about a year ago, i knew the song but had no idea who it was by.
Mudboy was an underrated album tbh cuz of mo bamba
i feel a come back in him
I love Sheck Wes music, and i would be really sad when my son once come to me and wouldnt tell me : Sheck has a new banger!
Mudboy still goes hard
I deadass still fuck with Sheck. Definitely one of my favorite NYC artists
i think if he just consistently releases he could grow massively. He got disappointed that only a few million fans stuck around as opposed to the 400 million he had on that song. But he still has a good foothold
He needs to drop more music like an album he still can make a banger song at least in my opinion
I ALWAYS THOUGHT THE "LIVE SHECK WES, DIE SHECK WES" WAS THE HARDEST SONG EVER..
NOT JUST THE HOOK, BUT SHECK WAS SPITTING REAL SHIT IN THE VERSE
I still am a fan of sheck Wes , he is still
Active but you gotta be a fan .
he not falling off real ones know sheck still cranks like shit
I heard ur voice on like 50 other channels with hip hop in they name
Sheck Wes is still making bangers.
mudboy is a great album
sheck wes fire af let him take his time, that mudboy project was super heavy. didn't fall off in my mind, ill def listen to the next project
sheck will have a comeback
He makes good music
Sheck ain’t fell off. His crowds will always be crazy
Ooh he hoped a fence angrily.
Sheck wes should not have limited himself
He should have been doing basketball vlogs
After that famous ig post
Thumbnail looks like a newport ad
lmaooooo, the randomness is what funny to me
Long story short, he wasn’t humble and thought he was bigger then he really is/was
I swear some rapper don’t fall off, they just stop making music
This is why i don't like limit myself
I.m a game developer and game tester
I create music as a hobbie until i get the rights to release it on Spotify RUclips Soundcloud
online for revenue and sponsorships from movies and games
He is still further then most people will ever do but is it fair to say he thought he was too famous
Wanted is my favorite song
mine too 🔥
He’s still modeling
Same thing that happened to Trinidad James and so many others
I’m glad people who abuse others are seeing consequences for their actions these days more and more and not succeeding regardless. He’ll be lucky to be a Globetrotter in 10 years.
Don’t care the amount of money would never take a deal. No label could ever afford what I would require to continuously make music for years on end.
He achieved more than most ppl. “He’s a one hit wonder” but it’s more hits than most ppl.
He became radical
I have never herd of shexk wes til this very last five minutes lol
Great video
I didn't think he had much staying power from go but really checked out when he got exposed ripping off production crews. Didn't even hear he was yet another POS who puts hands on women 🤦🏽♂️ Hip hop got a real problem with that and people still don't really wanna do anything about it. If 1 hot wonders like him and Dex can bounce back it's no way much bigger names ever get held accountable. It's sad asl
This guy was never “hot”. He was a one hit wonder. He never really lasted long at all. Like a few months
Everyone mad at him but not Chris brown?
Chris Brown's music doesn't suck. Wasn't a fan of Sheck before, during or after.
@@LIBryda Chris fell off in good music. Every thing sounds the same.
@@MultitaskingGuy that's good for you. You asked a question, and I answered.
@@LIBryda huh
@@MultitaskingGuy you can't read? I said what I said. Have a nice day.
how much does his feature cost
He’s done. After the Astroworld tragedy (I was there), artists like Don Toliver and Sofaygo are going to start trying to distance themselves from CACTUS JACK. I can’t imagine TDE, QC, YSL, Dreamville, Roc Nation, or any other label needing Sheck Wes as he’s served his purpose. Every year, there’s a niche role that needs to be filled of an artist blowing up off of a one hit wonder. We’ve seen it with Desiigner, Blocboy JB, Fetty Wap (not a one hit wonder), etc. The rap game depends on these minuscule artists the draw contrast to the bigger artists: Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Drake, Future, Travis Scott, etc.
Travis has done virtually nothing in terms of advancing his career, I can assure you he isn’t going anywhere 😂
I like your analysis, but I think Sheck Wes can still blow up if he moves away from Travis Scott, and made some smarter collabs. One would be collabing with Dave East, and another would be Chris Brown. Another collab would be an international triple-threat with Lil Berete (Canada) and J Hus (UK) since they're all from the same region of West Africa.
@@realtalk6195 Facts, he was on the Dreamville project. If he can continue to maneuver into more lanes while gradually bettering his lyricism, that’s how he can achieve the same status as someone like Lil Yachty, who could’ve easily fallen off as he was popular off one song, rode the wave, then at the last second started getting serious and focusing on making his music better.
@@Jedi_Knigga Lil Yachty is way too niche since he's in that weirdo category. Sheck Wes has superstar potential across the globe because of his background & intelligence. Getting on Dreamville project is good but can't box himself in since they're somewhat niche also.
He needs to 1. Collab with international artists to broaden his global audience. 2. Collab with urban _pop_ acts so as not to become niche, especially Chris Brown whom ladies love & haters couldn't cancel. 3. Collab with artists from NY itself like The Lox or Dave East to keep credibility & not have the Streets turn against you like the Woke mob did.
@@realtalk6195 He should definitely work with international artists or work with artists from his hometown. However, it seems like the rap A-listers are the ones that knock it out when they transition to the international sound (Drake when he does a reggae inspired track, Rihanna, Childish Gambino, Travis Scott). If Sheck Wes could go into an international sound he could reconnect with his Senegalese roots when he lived there for a short period, or he could go back to his NY roots, however he doesn’t have the drill appeal that’s popular in NY right now. I overall feel that his relevance will slip away if he doesn’t put out a project soon.
Sheck Wes album was actually banger
Rich homie Quan is still 🔥🔥🔥
Sheck wes is fire bro listen to his album
Nah Sheck got this he gonna make the comeback of the year
Idk man, he may not be as huge as he once was but his shows still got crazy asf. Most artists who had a hit then fell off don't even perform but sheck on the other hand be having Rolling Loud turnt every time he's there
Mudboy Album is for me, one of the best Album ever!
Sheck wes is one of the artists taht doesn’t really need to drop music to remain relevant since he is also a well known personality, model, writer, designer, and just a sick guy kind of like ASAP rocky
facts fasho!
Definitely giving me Rocky vibes
But Rocky drops when it’s the right time though
Sheck gets a break and is featured at Astroworld Festival, where subsequently 9 people are trampled to death. That boy has bad luck! 😩
Iiinteresting
He wants to do all this and that.. but HOW?!
He does alot outside of rap
in years to come, look back at this comment. SHECK WES IS THE FUTURE, I SAID IT !!
very simple, bro had 1 banger got famous and got cancelled before he could repeat that same success
lesson out there for artists from this: trust ur music and keep the same mentality when ur broke or rich, don't switch up and u wont get betrayed by the game
People lyin on him for clout and jealousy smh shit fucks ppl up
