Adam being hairless dates this doc lol
Once a narcissist clown, always one.
This was originally on BET's channel but deleted. Im glad yall picked it up.
IT WAS THE THUMB NAIL FOR ME 😁👌🏽🤵🏽👌🏽
Nooo jumperrrr
No Jumper, Coolest Podcast in the world
@@Nate___ Adam is a conniving, narcissist, sexual deviant who surrounds himself with black men to make him feel in power . He doesn't even hide it now, leaving his own racist comments in when he easily could edit them out. The podcast isn't cool, however he attracts alot of weak minded sheep to follow it.
@@P-Atonement leave adam alone vro
pause
Dad toured 300 days a year.
Came home one time, i was 2 yrs old and
I didn't even recognize him. #7GOD
I dig the concept and the information these videos are trying to convey, but the production value and segments are all over the place. Complex, please structure these videos better moving forward and provide more depth rather than just surface level conversations.
This is produced by BET not complex. This series is about 2 years old
Difference between RUclips & TV content.. Not everything a "deep dive"
I mean....it's BET and Complex. It's meant to be simple and entertaining to a mainstream audience, not a full in depth breakdown. The video did what it was supposed to do. It was fine.
Am I the only one getting a 2000s MTV reality TV vibe from this
I have no idea who these rappers are. Well, except for Too Short. That guy's a legend
When Adam did all the drugs and drank everyday 😂
Out of all the people who was featured in this video Adam22 had literally had no value outside of clickbait in this video they made it seem as if it was an interview
Couldn’t agree more. Really he took some value out of this whole production and even seeing him made me wanna stop watching overall but I stayed to catch a real perspective.
I lowkey hate Adam, but he knows what he's talking about as far as life on the road. Hate on him all you want, I do too, but do it for the right reasons
Excellent keep this info coming...keep it raw...nice!!..👍😁😁😁....
Amaizing information for aspiring artists, thank you 🙏
the background music sounds like 2007 MTVcribs-episodes or something hahaha
hate to say it, but outside of too short, i dont think i ever heard of any of these people. music industry big
I CANT WAIT TO TOUR!
Yessiiirrrrr
Complex content is like it's from the early 2000s
cant wait to go on this world tour of mine 2023!
Let’s go I’m ready to tour
really thank you for teaching us. for real from brazil of a ´person that husle and have no idea of the music business. YALL ARE SAVING FUTURE ARTISTS THANK YOU DEEPLY.
When you only recognize Too Short out of all these rappers, you know your ass is old.
Adam got a bald head in this shit this must have been shot in 2017
The fact you know that and find it necessary comment about it is sad. Sheep
@@P-Atonement dude, Seeing Adam with hair is an anomaly. Imagine you woke up one day got on the net and you see Charlamagne with an Afro.
@@simbalesliechoto8663 An anomaly ? He's had a head full of blonde hair (plugs) for awhile now. An anomaly is seeing a man with two heads , not adam with locks (transplant)
That’s why I’m getting prepared
I’m only minutes in and this shit got me applaud
when i was homeless and in my 20s i was at a truck stop in nj this older bearded white guy saw me and we talked for a few hours he offered me a ride so i took it before we left he said it would be a good idea to grab some food and a shower independently of course we proceeded to wash up and get ready before hitting the road as i left the showers the guy that i was riding with was already out and sitting in the tv viewing section talking to another driver he called out for me and i came and sat and we all chatted for a minute the guy introduced himself as "big red" and he said "like the chewing gum" he said he was going to Oklahoma and he had something he wanted to show us in the back of his "rig" it was a dead girl......in chains or at least she looked dead we called the highway patrol after he left i never ended up getting a ride i walked 4 miles to the next town through cow pastures and swamps it was safer. every time i see a truck driving down the open highway i think of that..
That’s pretty wild story
@@hawns5198 i think about it often.
What does that have to do with the video 😂
@@systemsless it was just my random experience of "being on the road"
Fr?
🔥
been on tour with the best of em. Shit really does get wicked no cap
@Jon Thor my nigga u been in my sub box twice...can u chill😂😂😂
@Jon Thor that shit is not cash bro
Lol you haven’t been on tour with nobody.
@@drhashtagyolo LMAO
Cap
Ain't no rules to shit when you have creative control
Nice way to lure the souls in
When I was an active musician, when we toured, I wanted to see the schedule, the itinerary. Come on now. Money, safety first. No blind spots. I
sounds so similar to how my life has been
Peep hadn’t even died yet when this came out
3:01 Ain’t nobody got time for that!!
it's fun if you have money, if not, it's eating out of waffle houses, truck stop sandwiches, stinky dudes in the van, the same songs everyday, sometimes sleeping on people's floor.. and getting 2-3 beer tickets at each venue if you're lucky. That was my experience anyways.
??
Facts.
You are right sir
Beer tickets meaning tickets for beer?
@@bldshd189 beer tickets = tickets for a beer.
Yes...what made you put 2 and 2 together?
If you don't me asking....
All these great stories about travelling the world and then Adam comes in at 19:06 with the "my first tour was with Lil Pump"...
Yeah he stomped somebody's face in and started a riot. 'NY Times thought it was great headlines'. Niceeeee.....lol......
I’m pretty sure they placed the ! In the wrong spot in the title. 🤣
"Oh ya it was bad, I was on the tour bus taking shit, then I rolled off the bus like
Dam... Ya Touring was the best thing ever" wait what? Lol 😆 🤣 😂
I doubt pump robbed somebody, he probably got them fronted and just didn’t pay. Big ass difference
Nah adam told the story on the tour with pump
Yeah robbing somebody df
They got Adam snitching this entire documentary
Adam low key a narc
This that Adam 22 smiling like a new guy
Why put a non artist that doesn't your on the thumbnail (adam) instead of a hip hop legend and veteran of the industry for 3 decades like Too $hort ?
Why is Adam in this video except for snitching on Lil' pump for "robbing some guy of all his Xanax".
Respectfully, a lot of these artists sound clueless
😂😂😂
that's respectful :)
Intuitive
Lol. This was a BET show years ago. I'm guessing Complex have the right to these videos now. It's super old
yes adam22 was still balding there
Adam Neva Been on bet
@JJ оlаtunji 🅥 don't go to this , it is a video of a bar of soap being carved.
Really ? A BET show from years ago ? Was all the video of adam the clown added in later ? Adam, Lil' pump and Lil' perk aren't in BET shows from "years ago"
And T.I.'s son "years ago" wasn't on BET shows grown talking about touring.
WHO ARE THESE PPL?!! TOO SHORT AND NORE ARE THE ONLY ONES I KNOW OF!! 💁🏾♂️💯💪🏾
YOOO THE MAD RAPPER lol
I don't care I want to be a rapper 😭😭
I saw Adam and clicked😂😂
wasnt this originally a BET doc?
What did he say in the beginning of the video ?
Adam❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️
Adam22 is why I’m here
magic city monday is the shit i can attest to that. only white dude there beside chuck liddel the first time i went
i love this hahaha
adam22 tour was really wild to be honest . . . . look at pump & em' now / still UP but look!
They’re working at Walmart now
@@systemsless at least they got a job unlike most . . . . . *Ijs*
@@azreal8169 how do you know.😂
Old buddy done got caught lackin a lot
These rappers got it so good compared to Punk Bands and Metal Bands on tour
Not really
@@fbl2619 great argument. About what I'd expect from someone who probably loves rap.
@@slaythembeforeme i like all genres especially country tho but how do bands have it so bad compared to rappers
ID on Adams hat?
SHOUTOUT OG ADAM22
Hello 2018 Adam😂
Who tf are all these other rappers?
I love Ayo and teo
Turn the page...
This is why your goal should be aiming for them offering you to fly out and pay for meals. The better your music, the more free shit you get. Nowadays I think the road can be avoided except for huge opportunities.
The music is too loud, can’t hear shit when ppl are talking
lol whatever any1 says, tour is the sickest thing I've done all my life
POLICE 22
Domani Harris common man 🤣🤣 who are half of these rappers that’s why this video only got 34K views
It's still a job would you come home from work in a 12-hour shift at Burger King go to the club at 2:00 and all you got to go to work tomorrow morning at party
adam 😭
Adam22 shows you long ago this was recorded
Adam snitching heavy on pump wtf bro
Why did they photoshop his head to be so round that was insane
I didn’t mean to get laced up 😂💉🎩☠️👀💀😘
🗣DOMANI HARRIS, STOP THE CAP 🧢 !
U can tell this is super old because Adam is bald
Only clicked cause Adam

Background music sounds like MTV Cribs shit....

✨Road Work🎶🎶🎶🎶😂😅😄🥰😈😎🥶🤯😱👿✨👌
Angelina Nwandu, what the hell does an immigrant anchor baby Tether know about hip hop?
adam aint look like that in 3 years. this old af
Leave them home
it used to be a 30 dollar album X 1 million in sales = 30million...AKA Michael Jackson....Well, boys, them days is over...NOW you gotta work for a living.!....lol
I barely heard of any of these lol
Adam 22 is funny
2:15
Lollll they think life on the road is tough, they should see what it’s like for actual DIY artists
Every single fucking person talking here has no right to be talking bout their tour life, wtf is going on i though complex was top tier especially with having connections with people who actually tour lol
They can’t talk about their own lives and experiences. What are you saying?
@@blackberry4life482 they have access to the people who can actually talk about the grueling tour life, the super stars. Those are the stories we don’t have access too. Hearing these mid/ low tier artist complain about their tour life is a waste of time.
@@vuul6093
That’s not true.
A lot of up and coming artists would appreciate the info.
Adam 22
Here for the person from the thumbnail
This video was horrible, I don't know any of the artists besides one of them from the Bay area
11:42
First guy : i alreadg went wild im 20!
2nd guy: im done with im 18!!
These two out of nowhere makes me
😖
👇🏿
😜 WILD DONE
This video is not produced very well..
Very random
Who even are most of these rappers haha
Damoni cap af. He ain’t never even seen a shabby hotel room. Spoiled rich kid
Right 🤣
You know complex is falling off when they are averaging 15k views and we’re only able to get ice. Cold artists in the video 🤣🤣Adam 22 was the most relevant person they were able to get lol
NO popping artist wanna reveal how trash of a deal they signed. They'll show you what you admire.
ruclips.net/video/znv5y0DWgw4/видео.html So this is what happened
Very negative. SMH.
What in the AIDS is this?
