    If you notice, most of the rappers from Houston in that period didn't get much support after their first albums from the record labels.

      That's cuz it was kinda trash. To me. It all sounds the same and it's very niche
      Kinda the spawn of trash rap or pop rap, rap that piggy backs off one another til everything just over saturated "their style"
      It got pushed so heavily that when a new sound came, it was like. Ok were done with that, on to the next sound so regardless if some of that rap is good, its automatically old.
      That's why concious rap suffers so much. Its automatically old

    He is the best marketer. He made sure people knew his name...he was the first artist to create a personal relationship with fans (ie giving his phone number)...his grandmother is the force behind his branding and marketing. I’m extremely happy for his success. I’m proud to say that I was one of the fans that called him and wanted a grill.
