Feb 7, 2016 From a commercial/mainstream success point of view. Do you think he is capable of becoming the biggest rapper in the world or do you feel his style could hinder him as he is unorthodox and society sometimes can't tolerate that.
Feb 7, 2016 Fr though, I think he has a lot of potential to become a powerhouse in the mainstream. But some people have a hard time keeping an open mind to other artists Looking at you reel hip hop kids.
Feb 7, 2016 I agree with BNTS in that it's realistic to assume that he'll become a powerhouse in the mainstream one day. But answering the question "is he capable of becoming the biggest in the world?" i believe he's capable, but realistically, i doubt he'll actually become the biggest rapper in the WORLD
Feb 7, 2016 Yeah I don't necessarily mean like literally the biggest but if he can become a mainstream powerhouse/household name
Feb 7, 2016 I think he can slowly break through to the mainstream I mean Lil wayne and Cashmoney didn't really blow up until Juvenile's "Back That Azz Up" blew up It just takes time for certain artists to break out
Feb 7, 2016 Nah and i speak absolutely from this commercial/mainstream pov you said. To be the biggest it means he have to surpass kendrick,drake and all the others that are the first ones in the spotlight. and before the shitstorm pls keep in mind again that i dont judge artists rn
Feb 7, 2016 Problem with Thug is that he doesn't sound like anyone else from the mainstream. Drake, Kendrick, and Kanye's sound can all be traced back to the hip-hop that people grew up with. Thug would have to release the "Nevermind" of hip-hop.
Feb 7, 2016 this could be a plus tho i dont think the world needs another kanye, kendrick or drake. the difficult thing is to top those names that gaining icon status
Feb 7, 2016 Yeah that's what I mean I'm wondering if his enigmatic/eccentric sound and persona could hinder or help him
Feb 7, 2016 he is huge in europe apparently after all the press runs and touring he has done there. he's just one step away from being a powerhouse. i dont really want everyone to be on thugs d*ck tho.
Feb 7, 2016 he has surpassed them in terms of talent and creativity ... it's the people holding him back aka sheep
