This just shows how fast rap moves. All these dudes were big in the blog & mixtape era and now we're talking about them as if their careers are finished.
@alexandreavelar9384 It is but a lot of these dudes were still relevant going into the 2nd half of the decade. The question that should be asked is that "Did they fall off?" or did their run just naturally end?
I feel like this is what deadend hip hop should be. Group discussions. P.S b.o.b started talking that flat earth nonsense and antisemitic remarks. So probably blackballed.
Funny note. His 2 big hits Airplanes and Nothin on You were original recorded by Lupe and supposed to be on Lasers but Atlantic scrapped Lu and gave them to BoB
Wale went Diamond off "No Hands" last year and sold out the Kennedy Center and also just signed a new deal with Def Jam in addition to releasing 2 pretty solid albums, (one with a song that went triple platinum) since 2019.
Also, kind of funny that the firs hit that had Bruno Mars featured on it was "Nothing On You". In fact, as I remember, there weren't many Bruno Mars songs out therer at that time. If you googled him you only had the b.o.b song, an accoustic solo Bruno jam and a song called "Her World goes On" with that club influence that was very popular at that time.
He laid low for a while but has been back dropping music fairly consistently over the past few years. He's put out a few EPs. I say go check it out, he's still dope.
A lot of rappers fall off. But unfortunately for my generation our 3 biggest stars in Juice Wrld, XXXTentacion and Pop Smoke all died young. Even if I didn’t love all their music they moved rap culture and were superstars.
I think Wale still good in some circles, he's just not as big as he once was for sure. I think some of his lashing out definitely played a role in that. But what's funny is that he was kind of ahead of his time with that. I remember him talking about being depressed and all that and getting clowned. Now mental health is a much more prominent conversation in hip hop and everybody talks about being depressed. But I feel like whenever Wale drops, it's dope and it still gets some motion. His more recent joint with J. Cole gets play. I've heard a few other joints get some decent play over the past few years. I think he can definitely drop another poppin album. His last one was in 2021 and although I didn't listen to it much myself, it did chart. He's due for another one this year I think.
The dude Ken was talking to was right. Fetty Wap had way more than 1 hit. Trap Queen, 679, My Way (especially the remix with Drake), Again, Time, Jugg...his debut was a hit parade. I was in high school that year and he RAN the entire school year, he was playing everywhere, every car, out of the speakers we brought in our backpacks. Always. We all knew every word to those songs. It was the closest experience I have to compare to how DEHH describes Doggystyle or Get Rich Or Die Tryin. That album was huge.
Yeah, I was out in them streets when that album dropped and I remember it being huge. I never really listened to him (outside of hearing it everywhere I was), but I remember people loving Fetty. He had a big white following as well. He could have been big but I don't think he was able to follow-up with another album.
Jon Conner just dropped and it was fire... possibly his best project yet (aside from his mixtapes run) it was a positive sounding album without being corny but the production was probably the low point save a handful of tracks (and even that wasn't that bad tbh just a little uninspired) put Conner with someone like real bad man, maybe harry fraud or obviously Al and he could do numbers
@FreshTuna yeah you were there so you get it. That was 2015. Now history is rewritten and people swear it was To Pimp a Butterfly but no it was Fetty Wap's year. Calling TPAB the greatest hip hop album ever didn't start until later.
Chance the rapper has dropped some loosies after the big day and honestly they’ve all been pretty good to fantastic songs. He just need to drop an album again to prove himself.
Chance had been dropping looseys for the better part of 4 years. They’ve been bar heavy to show the pen is strong, but nothing concrete and no momentum. He needs a feature run before rolling out a project so it doesn’t fall on deaf ears…
I can agree with this to a certain extent because unlike Cozz he really has built him a solid fanbase that’s separate from the label. He’s personally one of my favorites but i also understand why he hasn’t broken out a bit more generally speaking if that makes sense. How do you feel about his last album?
BoB had multiple hits including a Taylor Swift feature! His problem was he listened to the haters saying he was too pop and tried to switch lanes and make club music like “We Still In This B”. Once he told his major label backers he didn’t want the pop lane anymore it was a wrap!
I think he waited too long after Kismet, and then people don't rock with EPs much so he wasn't getting attention for a minute. It is wild because he's been killing it and putting out dope music videos throughout the years. His last album deserved a lot more love than it got.
The thing with Chance is his downfall really didn’t have that much to do with music. Yes TBD was a lackluster album but what really catapulted the hate campaign was his over saturation in media (this guy was everywhere in 2016-18), him trying to get an MTV reporter fired for writing a negative article, and his over the top religion switch. I didn’t care about any of this but the tide turned slowly against Chance and he went from beloved to being waited for him to drop a disappointing project. Boy did those people get what they want. If Chance dropped The Big Day in 2016 or early 17, I don’t think it would’ve been as hated or detrimental to his career.
For people from the blog era, what happened to: The cool kids Pac div Fly U XV Fashawn Che Grand Theophilus London Tanya Morgan Kids in the hall Skeme U.N.I. Omen Actual Proof Warm Brew
When it’s all said and done wale gonna be one of the best lyricists even if it’s over for him his body of work for those who know is super sufficient for me
Wale overcame (fake) DJ Wackademics disrespect for him and the entire DMV for years. Wale overcame getting dropped from Interscope after his debut album. They wanted to promote Wale as a Pop act at first because they couldn’t fully understand him or DC/DMV culture. He lead the MMG team when they first started. He helped Meek to create more female friendly records. He was the first sneaker head in Hip Hop’s blog era. He WRITES ALL his raps. He’s speak to women better than any of em aswell imo. He’s never had the financial backing like The other three MC’s either. Politics of the game has been holding him back aswell. Wale never get’s nominated for any BET, BET Hip Hop or Grammys. Even though his last two albums were great, maybe his best work. The game is the game. He’s highly regarded amongst his peers and real music lovers aswell. He know’s how to make a radio smash aswell. 💯💯💯
Y'all need to listen to the singles Chance has been dropping. He's been out to prove something for a minute. I'm' genuinely looking forward to his next album if it sounds anything like he's been putting out.
@@LouieV6I tried listening to a track or two from a more recent album and it was so disappointing. It sounded good, the beat and first verse were good, then the second verse came in and he started spewing conspiracies and saying the government was after him and shit. It was wild.
I really liked Kirk Knights first album, but he kinda changed up the sound on his stuff afterwards and sadly nobody ever talks about him. All power to him and whatever music he wants to make, I just unfortunately don't care for his particular take on that trap sound.
I can’t believe i didn’t put him on the list but i had Nyck, CJ Fly and Dessy on it. I felt like he was finding a good balance on that project between the stuff he started with and the sound that hip-hop was obviously trending towards but i agree. Him and CJ Fly completely went trap but they still be rapping they asses off
I do wish they were all still in conversation more amongst underground rap fans. Me and my friends grew up on that shit during high-school. I still remember listening to B4DA$$ on release day!
@@LoveyoDance and I don't have conversations with casual listeners. That's exactly how you get takes like this. It's okay to say I'm unfamiliar with that artist catalog as opposed to a lazy take like Bas sounds like Cole.
@spikespiegel323 You nailed it perfectly. This just seems like a lazy and disingenuous take. I guess the crew was to invest in TDE to give Dreamville a proper chance.
Did Wale end up being as big as some of his peers (i.e. Drake, Kendrick, Cole)? No. But to put him in a convo with Ace Hood and Dej Loaf is wild. Hes still touring. Hes still got a solid fan base. Hes doing fine. If hes in this convo, KRIT needs to be there and a few others too
It's something about signing with Dre/Eminem that makes people stop rapping. Because if there's 1 truth, I know that his songs/projects were shelved over there.
@@nikk796 Does he though? I mean, he only made one entire album about it and then he never mentioned it again. Probably did it to win an argument like when my wife says I don't do dishes enough so I wash every dish in the house like "Look at this shit! _Who_ don't do dishes?!" 😂
Just happened to come back to this video but apparently he’s been going through some health issues. He has a gofundme up on his socials and recently posted some updates. I think last thing he said was he was waiting on some test results to come back to see if he may need to start treatment for possible lung cancer. Prayers up to that man🙏🏽
I mean Airplanes was a Lupe song before Atlantic gave it to B.O.B. tho. Lupe popped before B.o.B. What focus shifted to Lupe? 🤣 He was off the label when B.o.B. was still popping
@@ofthelion7 I think that's where some of the fall off happened. He was originally held to those same standards but never quite met them. I'm sure there were some other more pressing things that contributed to his fall off like just not releasing good music, but he had a moment. He had this one mixtape with the song "Still In This Bitch" with TI and 2 Chainz that was pretty big, but after that, I didn't hear much from him.
@bjenksful I'm with Rod. I never saw star power or longevity. He was a perfect fit for the era he came up in. But thats it. Late 00s early 2010s hip hop mainstream was super bland.
@@lastdonutsthe next Aaliyah kinda hindered her career for a bit. But she's still out here doing R&B. I'm surprised that she completely stopped rapping once she got with Timbaland.
Man I wish Ace Hood would have kept his hype going. He had some 🔥 mixtapes and he had the mainstream appeal with pretty solid lyricism. I feel like he was kinda in the same lane as Meek Mill, but Meek just had better success.
Low key on my way to work I was like damn I haven’t listen to BoB in a long time. Only because Tyler the creator yonkers came on, and I was listening to him till I got to work
Snow made a comeback some years ago when Daddy Yankee sampled his song and had him featured on it. Dunno about USA but here in Latin America it was huge, like most DY singles since he didn't released many albums in the last decade. It's not DY biggest song and even most people over here didn't know about the "Informer" jam.
Whoever's idea it was to drop out the background music when something funny happens needs a raise.
🙏🏽🙏🏽
Chance was literally a star. Dropped one bad album then went into hiding. Other rappers drop three straight bad albums and keep it pushing 😂
Not exactly in hiding but he apparently doesn't care about rapping anymore.
@@seanyoung9014 you right I forgot he’s a family man now
Facts. He tucked his tail instead of coming right back with some heat. He fucked his career by going into hiding
@@RayaMonetStClairhow'd you forget he has a wife he loves???
The Big Day isn't that bad, it wasn't a coloring book, but dang he put out one album that wasn't as good as his previous and y'all destroyed the man
Whatever staff member came up w/this idea for a topic...good job
Preciate it but it stemmed from the Patron Ken mentioned at the top of the video. I just added some more parameters to it for the convo 🙏🏽

More convos for sure guys
You should upload these to Spotify and apple too
This just shows how fast rap moves. All these dudes were big in the blog & mixtape era and now we're talking about them as if their careers are finished.
I see what you're saying but the blog/mixtape was like 10 years ago. That's enough time for a career to die
@alexandreavelar9384 It is but a lot of these dudes were still relevant going into the 2nd half of the decade.
The question that should be asked is that "Did they fall off?" or did their run just naturally end?
I feel like this is what deadend hip hop should be. Group discussions. P.S b.o.b started talking that flat earth nonsense and antisemitic remarks. So probably blackballed.
BOB got weird and turned into conspiracy tin foil hat guy
Yeah hard to take him seriously after hearing him lol at people who think the earth is round.
Funny note. His 2 big hits Airplanes and Nothin on You were original recorded by Lupe and supposed to be on Lasers but Atlantic scrapped Lu and gave them to BoB
nah Mike cant leave, he said Chance needs to follow up “Big Day” with “Another Day”, thats bars
Wale went Diamond off "No Hands" last year and sold out the Kennedy Center and also just signed a new deal with Def Jam in addition to releasing 2 pretty solid albums, (one with a song that went triple platinum) since 2019.
Facts his album production have improved tremendously. ‘Wow…Thats crazy’ went Gold aswell. 💯💯💯

What happened to XV? I loved his popular culture mixtape.
He laid low for a while but has been back dropping music fairly consistently over the past few years. He's put out a few EPs. I say go check it out, he's still dope.
XV's a good one. Where's he been?
In Living Color was what happened to Snow 😂
Last Time Ace Hood was seen his Rolex watch fell apart on the red carpet on the bet awards. Dj Khaled didn't push him the way he should.
A lot of rappers fall off. But unfortunately for my generation our 3 biggest stars in Juice Wrld, XXXTentacion and Pop Smoke all died young. Even if I didn’t love all their music they moved rap culture and were superstars.
And also STEEZ. I know for a goddamn fact Juice X Pop STEEZ and Mac Miller would easily be our Top 5 right now.
Also lil peep too
I remember working out to a lot of B.O.B’s music. He turned into a conspiracy nut
DEHH talking about B.O.B’s flat earth conspiracy is a classic video
What happened to Odd Fridays??
We’ll talk about it on the next live
i never thought Cozz sounded like Cole.
Me either. The same goes for Bas. When they said that I was like WTF are they talking about 😂😂
Yeah that confused me like crazy!
Chance is the one time I can remember where everyone agreed with Fantano. Absolutely devastating, but he's way too talented to let it slip away
Enjoyed this. Would love a continuation 👍

Every single time fetty played at a party it was so lit, it was amazing. It was a short time but he was at the very top for like a year.
@FreshTuna yeah you were there so you get it. That was 2015. Now history is rewritten and people swear it was To Pimp a Butterfly but no it was Fetty Wap's year. Calling TPAB the greatest hip hop album ever didn't start until later.

two things can be true.

Chance had been dropping looseys for the better part of 4 years. They’ve been bar heavy to show the pen is strong, but nothing concrete and no momentum. He needs a feature run before rolling out a project so it doesn’t fall on deaf ears…
Chance has shown he’s back to form with his recent singles but he definitely needs to drop a solid body of work
Cozz defintely got lost but I feel like Bas has been doing decent and really experimenting with sounds
I can agree with this to a certain extent because unlike Cozz he really has built him a solid fanbase that’s separate from the label. He’s personally one of my favorites but i also understand why he hasn’t broken out a bit more generally speaking if that makes sense. How do you feel about his last album?
"he look good?" is crazy 😭

That's a fact he started off the 2010s on fire with the pop songs. Why he would change the winning formula I'll never know.
Y'all remember Memories Back Then? Whooooooweeeeeeeee babay😂
@@StevieFromThree I used to listen to that one on the way to class lol
Snow's career got ended when Jim Carrey dissed him with the song "Imposter" lmao
He was never really all that good anyway
“He look good? 😏” lmao
It's crazy that B.O.B. first song on his first album is called Don't Let Me Fall.
Mr Mfn Exquire.. he's still dropping high quality music, but for some reason his popularity momentum stopped. I don't know why
I think he waited too long after Kismet, and then people don't rock with EPs much so he wasn't getting attention for a minute. It is wild because he's been killing it and putting out dope music videos throughout the years. His last album deserved a lot more love than it got.
Immortal Technique 🫥
Idk we’ve been waiting for the middle passage but he’s been doing all kinds of live performances and features
Been over a decade tho... It ain't never coming homie. Tech doesn't even share most of the beliefs that drove his earlier music anymore.
chance was on his way to being a mega star and just collapsed the d-rose of rap 😢
that Snow Informer song got me dying bruh
Just by the title this is gonna be a banger 🔥

Man I wish Ace Hood would have kept his hype going. He had some 🔥 mixtapes and he had the mainstream appeal with pretty solid lyricism. I feel like he was kinda in the same lane as Meek Mill, but Meek just had better success.
Yall tripping about Wale, he’s got some projects from the past few years .
Sheesh. Coz and Bas dam near even got the same names. They definitely were in Cole shadow and honestly never really grew their brands.
Bas has a nice following just hadn't crossed over to mainstream. He's a notch below JID
Low key on my way to work I was like damn I haven’t listen to BoB in a long time. Only because Tyler the creator yonkers came on, and I was listening to him till I got to work
What's the Chance song they're talking about that they reviewed?
What happened to AZ, Kurupt & Obie Trice
old that's what happened
Two of the three became legends is what happened
2 are some of the most underrated of all time while the other was one of many failed by Eminem.
AZ dropped a project back in December.
Snow made a comeback some years ago when Daddy Yankee sampled his song and had him featured on it.
Dunno about USA but here in Latin America it was huge, like most DY singles since he didn't released many albums in the last decade. It's not DY biggest song and even most people over here didn't know about the "Informer" jam.
I like this one
