I haven’t watched a video yet, but lil Mabu didn’t necessarily fake anything, he was basically making parody videos, while everyone knew he was a white boy well off in a private school. He didn’t hide it, so I don’t really counted as faking more than so as acting, which feels very different because he wasn’t trying to make people think this was actually how he was. he’s basically really good at marketing and did with 6ix9ine did but ironically
Calling Mabu 'successful' should come with an asterisk, he comes from a rich family and went to private school. Anyone would be successful under those circumstances. His success started with his marketing company not rap career
@@SKIWOK he didn't have to build shit. Get your money up and understand how much harder it is to make money from a little vs how to make money from a lot
He's like who 6ix9ine wishes he was, playing the long con, succeeding by making the right moves at the right time, doing all of that without getting an entire city of people who are actually about the life he claims in his music to come for his head lol
I wouldn’t say mabu faked his image, he never claimed to be any of these things, he just hung round the people in the drill space with drill artists made drill music, just comes with the music. But wouldn’t say he actively faked it, he was just smart about it
@@Sajid_A829 but it’s obviously a joke, he doesn’t claim anything, In all his songs he is just clowning.. I can’t imagine people actually taking it seriously.

You have to talk about how Lil Mabu promoted his 1st drill song because it was pretty funny and it proves that Mabu was already trying to make himself a meme from the start. Lil Mabu sent a DM to a lot of rappers/producers, even the smaller ones, saying something like "who let this white kid make drill music? But he's blowing up! 🤯🔥". Of course it was hard to take him serious from there so a lot of them rappers made fun of him on Twitter, and that day was hilarious, but in the end, the promotion definitely worked, and that's how he got himself a name in the 1st place.
Its obvious he ain't about that life. Mabu needs to chill with the drill beef, he don't need to die cause he is a target now. A goon may just kill him for clout at this point. I pray for his safety
@@c0rxpseb0i13 his music is not bad some songs are hard asf like throw with dd osama and I just responded with him not being an industry plant i said nothing about him being a good artist or not u just hating
@@c0rxpseb0i13 what about him makes a trend hopper all he does is make drill music that's not a trend its just a music genre and even if he was theres nothing wrong about being one u just making it sound bad literally most artists right now are trend hoppers
It’s insane how the public pushes these rappers to live these luxurious, expensive, lavish lifestyles AS IF THE PUBLIC LIVE SIMILARLY. Make it make sense 😭
Yes lil' mabu is not a thug. But he is legit about his love for the culture. He legit helped rappers blow up. This is part of why he barely gets pushback.
I mean Mabu doesnt really fake his lifestyle like yes his rap/drill videos are him with the goons and shit but EVERY KNOWS he was born rich and had money growing up he doesnt hide it like we could all tell anyway his raps are just that *Raps* like I 100% could tell he went to private school and his daddy had money just from seeing his videos but his bars are good some shit he says is super dope, If anyone even thought that was his real image there just dumb af lol
Rap for the younger generations has become just that, a marketing scheme. Not about the music, the lyrics, anything resembling music quality. Just marketing and vitality. Gimmicks.
Mabu proving his marketing skills, but in drill, yeah that's corny but the fact he did it in that sphere shows his skills even more. Would of taught him valuable lessons for his company to help other rappers come up.
Fun fact dev exposed that his old friend that he never gave that man a chain on his live right after he got out from a arrest and either way dev a marketing genius
Fun fact: TEACH ME HOW TO DRILL was actually partially filmed in New Jersey at my 2nd uncles warehouse. My grandpa’s truck is seen in the background in a couple shots.
i remember when rappers had to actually be talented to get respect. These new rappers fade off so fast now cause they dont make timeless music, they just make generic crap over and over and over but suckers still support it sadly.
14:04 imagine you come back to your dorm after a really tough exam in like abnormal psychology or some shit, and you open the door to see your roommate making a song with fivio foreign lmao 😂😂😂
lil mabu is open that he isn't gangster, look up the trip to the hood music vid and the beginning is basically him making fun of his accentual livestyle
Look there's rapper's who wear fake jewelry because in certain places it's too dangerous for them to wear their real expensive jewelry and then there's the other ones who just lie about every aspect of their life and their material possessions 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I feel like mabu will not be around as long as he thinks. Not part of that life myself but I think the people who are might show him where Drill really comes from and make him part of it. Sometimes you should be careful what you wish for
idk if he’ll stick around, but he wont get into that. not only does he openly say he doesn’t but you should look up who his dad is… thats why hes where he is now
