Unfortunately many people don’t listen to albums anymore, just playlists. Subsequently, “fans” don’t get to know the artists and their music. Now you get quiet concerts
if it makes anyone feel better this happens with every social media artist, before it was the soundcloud artists, then youtube artists, now its the tiktok artists. The cycles gonna continue with the next big social media.
But she was fine before she got super mainstream too tho. She was on the first spiderverse soundtrack and had a solid fan base . She changed her sound and tried being sexy is what happened
coi leray is the type of artist that should use tiktok to their advantage she doesnt make like “i love my craft and im passionate abt it” type of music she makes quick catchy songs which is what tiktok is great for
I was so happy when he did the reset tour. Because it was actually fan filled audiences. Gave a chance for us to actually see him live after the first tour sold out behind the tiktok fans
Man, this shit sucks 😭 I actually really like Steve Lacy's music, not just the Bad Habit stuff. Sucks that people only really know him for Bad Habit 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏 But W Video as always, King 🔥🔥🔥
@@marcelmarshall4240Because they follow a formula of love/breakup songs or anything relationship wise. I don’t listen to Steve’s music but it seems he’s more free-spirited and creative than those pop giants.
TikTok was originally Musicly. Growing up in So-Cal and being in the same circles as Steve, I am happy Steve on his recognition. On the same token, it is quite bitter on the type of recognition as you mention. He isn't finished as this is technically his chance to be like Frank.
its crazy that i was thinking about this the other day and I was like if steve lacy does come back its going to take him a while to resurface as a artist because of the tiktok curse concept. He's one of the good artist I'd love to see more of but unfortunately probably wont. I wish he would have tried traveling out the states for concerts more. I hear some artist say that overseas they know all the lyrics to your songs if they invest in a concert.
thank u mr. garcia for dropping this. it fills my heart up as I lost my phone and most importantly MY FUCKING HATTTTTT HAUHFAUISHFUIAHIUASHFUIHAUFIA IT WAS SO DRIPPY but I lost my hat at a ken carson concert yesterday.
Before watching this video- i was thinking the other day, damn Steve lacy kind of fell off. But then i checked his Apple Music and I realized he hasn’t dropped music in 2 years. Once he drops music it’ll probably do pretty good regardless of the hype, and he’ll have some buzz around his name again.
i been listening to steve since musically days and I must say he deserves every but of fame and ever dollar he gets. im happy tiktok blew him up to a mainstraim level and if people dont wanna know his music beyond bad habits there actually missing out cus he has soooo many anazing songs. Hate CD and Like me being two of my favs
My bro, thanks for your video. It’s just that this topic was covered in detail a couple years back by alot of creators I really thought you’d shed a new light on it with “deeper than you think” I thought you’d talk more about Static. What Steve’s been up to post Bad Habit etc But it’s just the same information from years back I appreciate the video still but I had to drop some critique
Im so happy i got to see steve lacy before he blew up tickets at 30 etc but I watch him evolve I’m a day one fan and i definitely felt like this video had some key points but also some where missed
It’s the dumbness of the people who use TikTok a unhealthy amount who ruin things. Because what sane person is paying tickets to see an artist and not know the music at all or anyone having the audacity to shine a bad light on Steve because their knowledge of him hasn’t reached past TikTok yet.
Wow, I really live under a rock. I've never heard of this guy, and I haven't ever heard the song "Bad Habit." I love The Internet, though. 😅 I hope he figures everything out and finds the success he has worked so hard for.
He sold and embarrassed himself simple like how are you an artist and don't know what part of your songs your own fans know if he had just continue singing when he realized they didn't know that part he'd be just fine but he brought attention to it and got clowned
@asquarededits9261 that does change the fact that he brought attention to it when he could've just continued and only make audience since that part when it came around again
First off White pipo ruined Steve Lacy for ourselves. This is why we should stay out of those people’s business. Steve Lacy is a Legend with a legendary background in the black community. If this was rage bait congratulations 😂
imagine you are this entilitled that you want the crowd to know all your songs. Its so cringe to try and chase that Rock moment every single time bruh.
well why would anyone buy tickets to an artist they dont even listen to that much. i think its fair for him to expect that they know the songs if theyre willing to put the time and money into going to one of his shows
@@c4elan No, thats just insane, you dont have to be a fanatic to ejnjoy someones music. I sapzed out on ceoncerts with bands I neaver heard my whole life. You pay the Artist to perfom not to look at you all zesty and mad when you dont do it for him. its straight up entitlement, if you go to many concerts your approach makes it impossible to have a life beside listining and learning whole albums or songs from tracklists. stop the cap
@@F.I.M_the1it doesn’t take that much time to listen to music bffr you would not have to dedicate your whole life to it. Also you do know you can look up the artists setlist for a concert and memorize only those songs. I feel like you waste your money if you came only for one song and more than that are being performed. You can easily turn or RUclips or Spotify and watch them perform your fave song. Makes no sense 😂 Also “zesty”? Must be a child fr because in what world is he wrong and entitled to expect the fans that are coming out to see him would only know one part of a song when he’s performing more than that? Be fr
@@mono_tone6511 I make Music and consume tons of it, listen to many different genres, this concept is beyond crazy to me, I know the Discographie in and out of like 4 Artists I have been following for over 20 years, sometimes a song is really really good so I know it in out just by the times i replayed it, now imagine having your own catalouge. its full on entitlement to think other people would rap half my songs
Unfortunately many people don’t listen to albums anymore, just playlists. Subsequently, “fans” don’t get to know the artists and their music. Now you get quiet concerts
Short form content is ruining everything
was a grammy nomanee before tiktok
Was a Grammy winner after tiktok
Very true
How u edit the comment and still spell nominee wrong

@paulreynolds7103 this is why the world thinks americans are illiterate
it's youtube@@Catfullofwok
The internet >>>>>>>>>
Reall
Nside and ryd will always be some of my favorite lacy songs
Also love him on the hook for Kali Uchis’s Just a Stranger
Tiktok introduced me to Steve Lacy and I’ve loved his music ever since seeing other people not appreciate his artistry because of tiktok is annoying
if it makes anyone feel better this happens with every social media artist, before it was the soundcloud artists, then youtube artists, now its the tiktok artists. The cycles gonna continue with the next big social media.
It’s honestly sad too, wished everyone gave Sunshine and Mercury the same attention Bad Habits got.
OH MY GOD. NEVER BEEN TRUER 🙏THE CHORDS ARE SO GOOD AND I LEARNED EVERY LYRIC😭
He's never made a bad song imo

Coi Leray is a way better example of the TikTok curse
But she was fine before she got super mainstream too tho. She was on the first spiderverse soundtrack and had a solid fan base . She changed her sound and tried being sexy is what happened

Bro he's a great artist TikTok was not ready for him been listening him since 2020
I was so happy when he did the reset tour. Because it was actually fan filled audiences. Gave a chance for us to actually see him live after the first tour sold out behind the tiktok fans
I started listening to Steve lacy in 2016
I started listening in 2024.
ok?

Reminds me to give him some streams. Every bit helps him to get back properly.
He has over 25m monthly listeners he still eating good

Thanks man.... but Lacy will be ok... hopefully
Who cares just enjoy music be happy that he’s successful
Bad habit got overplayed on the radio it still do. Tiktok is the newer vine
still listening to radio is respectable

The crowd that caught on to Lacey was pop fans. You knew it wasnt going to last
But why do pop fans stick with Bieber, or Taylor…or Miley, or Bruno?
@@marcelmarshall4240Because they follow a formula of love/breakup songs or anything relationship wise. I don’t listen to Steve’s music but it seems he’s more free-spirited and creative than those pop giants.
I found him through one of my favorite artists Ravyn Lenae, they’ve done two collabs that I know of, skin tight and 4 leaf clover! (:
Steve lacy produced the whole ep that four leaf clover is on. :)
I am so out of touch. I like that for me.
being out of touch isnt bad
Him throwing a fit about it was what made it seem like a bigger deal tbh
TikTok was originally Musicly. Growing up in So-Cal and being in the same circles as Steve, I am happy Steve on his recognition. On the same token, it is quite bitter on the type of recognition as you mention. He isn't finished as this is technically his chance to be like Frank.

Subbed. Shout out to God indeed
Always
I found Steve Lacy from tiktok when dark red was trending I listen to ts everyday
He’s was also in the music group the internet
@@jamescarl6426 Ian know bout them until I got more into Steve Lacy

1:18 I still bump this whole album in 2024
Knew him since 2015😍
steve lacy really pulled the frank ocean leaving early during a set before frank pulled it (ive loved steve and frank for several years)
my family keeps telling me to promote my music on tiktok and obviously i said HELL NO because of this exactly. i wanna be a singer not a TIKTOK ARTIST
4:09 “The Greatest Romance Ever Sold” Neptunes Remix

Literally found out about Steve lacy from 911 and changed my whole prospective of music, one of my biggest music inspirations!
U bugging my g he got the sauce
I was listening to Steve before TikTok was even born

Great video as always! Keep up the great work man
The problem was it was just one big ass snippet ain never hear another part
Im so happy i got to see steve lacy before he blew up tickets at 30 etc but I watch him evolve I’m a day one fan and i definitely felt like this video had some key points but also some where missed
I feel like you could have mentioned dark red that blew up before bad habit

THE GOAT RETURNS
YESSIR
8:01 ryd - Steve lacy, your welcome 🤝
Lol I thought the thumbnail was pusha T 😂
When you say charts it sounds like sharts
My accent do be like that
YESS J DILLA MENTIONED:33
J dilla always will be mentioned
@@KingBenny hehe you stayed true to that I loved your new vid !
@@KingBenny hey wait what’s your favorite song from him !:3
W instrumentals used in the video, i hope you didn't get copyrighted
I don't get copyrighted for instrumentals... playing snippets do get me copyrighted usually around 300k but I keep the money before it hits 300k
That was my friends phone that he smashed, she got escorted out of the concert
I quit tiktok in late 2022, I didnt know he had such a blow up on there
The Dilla beats in the bg 💪🏾🔥
Always... best beats tbh
@@KingBenny long live king Dilla!
You just forget that he has made music with Tyler, Kali uchris as well which are big names put some respect on em also goldlink
He still has enough fans tho he’ll be good
He sold and embarrassed himself simple like how are you an artist and don't know what part of your songs your own fans know if he had just continue singing when he realized they didn't know that part he'd be just fine but he brought attention to it and got clowned
Cause they aren’t his fans…they bought concert tickets to hear ONE part of ONE song. I’d lose my shit after I did all this too
@asquarededits9261 that does change the fact that he brought attention to it when he could've just continued and only make audience since that part when it came around again
@@asquarededits9261that part. While making it impossible for his actual fans to buy tickets!
didn't know bro knew jay dee thats awesome
Welcome back.

TikTok ruined Steve Lacy bro W video (What's the song for your outro?)

What is that beat called at 6:00?
SHOUT OUT TO J DILLA
He the homie
i was literally wondering yesterday what happened to this mf
Shout ou to J DILLA IDEED 🙏🏼 RIP
Man it sounds like some entitlement as well. If attendees don’t know the lyrics, THEN SING! How are you going to get mad instead of doing your job?
Not making top chart music is only a so called criticism if your taste level is so narrow that you only listen to top forty????
I used to like that song he had "baby you got something in your nose" until the dumb English or Spanish meme its so unfunny
Idk I find it a little funny if you dont take it top serious
Stfu he hasn’t dropped anything since Gemini rights
hes working on a project with childish gambino
Who?
what beat was playing at 8:42 ?
Nujabes - another reflection
