Either these rappers blackballed themselves, make dumb decisions or their sounds are so niche and different, mainstream audiences wont accept them, sadly… or they jus dgaf😂
dmv rappers arent considered underground. i live in the dmv and theyre rlly popular around here, everybody knows them. ppl outside of the dmv area know some rappers bc a lot of them like no savage are pretty big,theyre not nobodies. the dmv rappers arent mainstream but their listeners are very tightly knit and always listen to everythjng they drop, but thee rappers dont rlly get mainstream attention
It wasn’t until the SoundCloud wave that people saw the underground as a trap or as a level that people need to surpass. I grew up seeing the underground as hidden gems that were pretty successful. Tech N9ne for example was like the king of the underground making bank and having lil Wayne or em on his songs. Curren$y is still super underground from like 2007-present day and he’s super successful. I don’t think it’s cool to make the underground seem like it’s a bad thing. Sometimes these dudes just stay independent and don’t care to be in the spotlight they just care about their fanbase and the people that get them paid… sometimes when major labels get into the mix, yea we might think these artists are superstars, but they’re secretly being exploited by major labels and shit. Some of these artists, their goals are just to make money and drop music and being mainstream isn’t always part of that picture
Thank you bruh that’s the problem with the “underground” now it’s turned into a genre instead of just a loose name for artist who have their own niche and aren’t super massive
Exactly. Not having to work for a company and still living comfortably in life is the goal regardless. If these guys are making $50k/ yr just by doing something they enjoy, they’re winning. I’ve always had a certain respect for underground artists more than mainstreams artists. They’re entrepreneurs 💯
I will never stop spinning uno and fauni music so many people sleep. Literally just last week uno dropped this tape that was mostly heat. Sucks they never went mainstream
Idk if Matt Ox can ever go on a list like this, bro legit went mainstream off the start and then became not only a underground legend but one of the faces of this new sound. All before bro was even 18. But he the only person that come to mind. Just to show bro love even if he's not stuck. He's just a underground legend who was already mainstream.
Facts he’s a legend for sure. Man’s discography. I feel like people will catch on later for sure to see how this kid hasn’t stopped making crazy and unique sounds on all his projects. Shits dope
i dont like how being underground has become a derogatory term when its artist that have made a whole career out of being “underground” and are still considered goats look at ppl like chief keef if u judged by his mainstream success youd say he fell off but in reality his most known songs are leaks and unofficial releases. his most influential era he was “underground”.
I felt like carti could’ve at-least did songs with uno and fauni introduced them to a wider audience so that just shows carti never really was tight with them like we thought he was
Carti is the guy in your group who acts different when a “more popular” group comes around. We all had friends/ snakes like that. Left his bros to be more popular and cut off all ties (Funny thing is, splur gang would’ve been the most popular out rn)
K Suave, is unfortunately is going to stay underground because he didn't capitalize on Chrisean Rock. Like he was supposed to when he was messing wit her that was his chance to go mainstream. Everyone talks about money sex n drugs so that's not the case Suave actually makes hard ass music and his sound has changed.
Fauni so goated too that’s the wack part about it in my opinion. He’s still going crazy but if he was in the position that carti is in now not only would we actually get some good songs but I feel like he would honestly be the better rapper of the two.
I felt this way, but uno and fauni both losing steam, simply because they BOTH tried to COPY FADS. Rage beats era, and loud obnoxious shit was corny and they tried to keep up with artists (who they were above) . All they had to do was continue to be creative but they tried to ride a wave….idk about them. My two favorite
What people are failing to realize is that these guys are not real artists. They have no talent whatsoever, can’t captivate a crowd, and can barely rap or pick good beats. So what’s the appeal? Do you guys really expect them to go to the next level?
dont know what to say about uno. He release on soundcloud and always promoting and doing trends but I guess he still needs to be pushed more. and that man always be posting on insta but still no spark i guess. besides that beef what more can he do?😭
@@Foxx319 um no. ngl for him to get that spark again he might have to go backwards and tap in with upcoming artists again. ngl prolly him getting on a max stream will help LOL
Xanman has always been a dmv scene artist just like goonew,he was tapped in with the underground but i don’t think that’s the scene they really fall under
Suave is popular asf, but he definitely isn’t mainstream. He isn’t at the level of opium, faygo, lucky, or tana. His style is beautiful and I’ve been there since 2018-2019 before his glow up, but he has to switch it up and show versatility or he isn’t going to last through the next five-ten years.
ngl yall trippin. xanman really really hard that’s cool foulin the plug i’m sayin i know hey now boy a liar first day out shooting star hit the crowd his shit hard. he has hella connections too HELLA from brent faiyaz to meek mill. i think he just chillin tho idk
Either these rappers blackballed themselves, make dumb decisions or their sounds are so niche and different, mainstream audiences wont accept them, sadly… or they jus dgaf😂
Its weird seeing Xanman here I don't really see him as a ug artist. Hes just a DMV artist doin his own thing
Same in Maryland and VA he be big
Facts
Yes a underground DMV artist
If he isn’t mainstream then he is underground lol

Fax lol Matt was most def mainstream in 2018 especially
Matt Ox on that X song still goes crazy
@@madewavy Check me out
I wish Xanman could get in the mainstream man I’ve been listening to him since he was in my high school
If he go mainstream the whole DMV scene go mainstream
K suave forever my fav ug artist 💒
Swear ppl don't give him his props
brooo this is a great ass topic no one thought about this wish more youtbers can talk about "Deep UnderGround" genre also not just underground
“Rappers that get to keep their soul and their money by not selling out to labels for corporate greed”
Glad dutie is experimenting with the vids
i dont like how being underground has become a derogatory term when its artist that have made a whole career out of being “underground” and are still considered goats look at ppl like chief keef if u judged by his mainstream success youd say he fell off but in reality his most known songs are leaks and unofficial releases. his most influential era he was “underground”.
Exactly real Sosa fans still listen to him
Dutie what are your thoughts on SouthSideSilhoutte?
Hard, but not consistent.
Man I wish xan got more credit he so versatile and been goin hard since he came out ngl he always got a fan out of me fr 💯
slump6s new tape actually been sounding insane
You spittin with the tiji takes
I felt like carti could’ve at-least did songs with uno and fauni introduced them to a wider audience so that just shows carti never really was tight with them like we thought he was

Boofpackmooky shit you could give em his own video because bro has a song always going viral every year but can never progress past that
all his music sounds the same and he is ass give it up.
his sound will never appeal to anyone out of the underground.
@@ghoul_lyfeI mean clearly it is if songs keep going viral
@@BeenBenji why isnt he mainstream then? exactly….
@@ghoul_lyfeeh it’s cause he’s not consistent if he took it seriously
I’ll never forget when Rich Amiri was charging ppl $500 to beef with him on his story 😂
K Suave, is unfortunately is going to stay underground because he didn't capitalize on Chrisean Rock. Like he was supposed to when he was messing wit her that was his chance to go mainstream. Everyone talks about money sex n drugs so that's not the case Suave actually makes hard ass music and his sound has changed.
Ima take over
Fauni so goated too that’s the wack part about it in my opinion. He’s still going crazy but if he was in the position that carti is in now not only would we actually get some good songs but I feel like he would honestly be the better rapper of the two.
Yee fauni still doing this thing fs
Uno?
I felt this way, but uno and fauni both losing steam, simply because they BOTH tried to COPY FADS. Rage beats era, and loud obnoxious shit was corny and they tried to keep up with artists (who they were above)
. All they had to do was continue to be creative but they tried to ride a wave….idk about them. My two favorite
Fauni definitely better than Carti
Content always hit
i also think k sauve never going mainstream but that reasoning can’t be the one cause we all live sahbabii and young busy to a lesser degree
What’s insane is that if Kobe allegations ends up being false the girl would receive no repurcussions
Shit already debunked lmao nigga innocent it’s just no one cares anymore
Nikka didn’t even need to say pause 🌽🏀
Uno gonna go up just slowly
Xan still hard if u actually listen
Thoughts on bigbabygucci?
Thas a good take4 Suave. A lot of underground rappers have hit or misses..
that slump part wasn’t a pause moment bru
What people are failing to realize is that these guys are not real artists. They have no talent whatsoever, can’t captivate a crowd, and can barely rap or pick good beats. So what’s the appeal? Do you guys really expect them to go to the next level?
With the sound that slump n Wes created they really coulda just been a new X n Ski I wish they worked things out
If Wes and Jace didn’t have beef, the underground would have been different, crashed it is arguably the best Asian rock song I’ve ever heard
dont know what to say about uno. He release on soundcloud and always promoting and doing trends but I guess he still needs to be pushed more. and that man always be posting on insta but still no spark i guess. besides that beef what more can he do?😭
He should sell his soul like Carti
@@Foxx319 um no. ngl for him to get that spark again he might have to go backwards and tap in with upcoming artists again. ngl prolly him getting on a max stream will help LOL
@@IcookiezL0V3Rcheck me out bro
SGPWes new album was fye asf
it was ngl. But that don't mean bro stuck in the underground
wheres bash romo? chris travis? like most soundcloud artists who dont get signed in 3 years or dont do anything past they one hit they stay complacent
“I’m sayin” by xanman is hard af 🔥
Xanman has always been a dmv scene artist just like goonew,he was tapped in with the underground but i don’t think that’s the scene they really fall under
Working on Part 3 behind scenes, lmk know who should be on the next one. Love Y'all
swapa
@@K1NGST0N23? He just getting started bro we can’t say that yet
@@pinpointed4 how long bro been making music?
@@K1NGST0N23 that doesn’t matter don’t be dense bro. He’s just started getting hype every big rapper has rapped years before they blew
@@pinpointed4 oh well nvm then
It’s okay imma save da Underground ❗️❗️❗️
izaya def don’t wanna b famous fr 😂 i’m glad we all notice that. glad he doing good
Why u re uploading videos nga
i feel like slimesito deserves a spot on the list
Slime is dat nigga
I bet I’m the only one here on that Naruto Ultimate Ninja 5 Gameplay
One day Dutie gonna make a video about me
Sgpwes in my top 3 but if he hadn’t hopped in the beef nonsense he would be at Jace level rn
Izaya Tiji can literally take over if he wanted to. He just chilling
Nobody ever talks about MDMA MOLLY
Fax bro crazy talented and got bangers w uno but they both just hella overlooked
Slump independent too tho
Is he I thought he signed to republic
@@ssj4goten819idk if he got dropped or finished his deal but he went indie like last year
@@ssj4goten819he went live a few months ago and said he went independent
As long as they not broke they good
K suave is hard asl
Why is Izzy in the thumbnail gang
Uno still got the best music.
K Suave is considered underground?
Greasy dago Stuck like a mf too
What abt slimeballmk
Izaya tiji could’ve easily gone mainstream time ago he messes up his opportunities everytime but I guess he doesn’t care about fame
Xan a goat 🐐
Dutie yea u must of just got hip lol to the sound…
i love xan but yea he's stuck forever prolly
Maybe suave is ok with where he’s at
is izaya tiji still considered to be stuck in the underground if he PURPOSELY self sabotage himself?
Lil candy paint
fauni would be out if he released his good music
Give me a three of the Tris' and a 30 to sniff
yall stay saying the fall off when speaking about kobe like he was about to be the next one up. he was not. stop being so delusional.
Thank you bro. The way I watched the fans and the promo pages (that his team paid for) gas him up was crazy. The underground community is delusional.
imo izaya could've been mainstream I think just dont care about being famous?or doesn't want to be big big ykwim but I digress.
Yurrr
K suave idk about that one🤔
Suave is popular asf, but he definitely isn’t mainstream. He isn’t at the level of opium, faygo, lucky, or tana.
His style is beautiful and I’ve been there since 2018-2019 before his glow up, but he has to switch it up and show versatility or he isn’t going to last through the next five-ten years.
@@loneli_ people should listen to bye ft k suave now that suave so versatile 🔥 and loner ft k suave
