    My Name Is being called out for being a radio track and making Em a pop star was some of the biggest motivations and content for MMLP lol how do you not know that

    Mainly because My Name Is blew up and became a pop song while the vast majority of listeners hadn't even heard SSLP or his first single, Just Don't Give a f---. So they and most media labeled him a pop sensation which gave him the fuel to make MMLP.

    You have that right, but I do think it's weird to not enjoy it mainly due to him working with pop stars now.

    The only way I see my name is being called pop is the colorful video, I’d say, in a way, but lyrics like :

    “I smoke a fat pound of grass, then fall on my a---”

    “Ripped Pamela lees t-ts off, And smacked her so hard I knocked her clothes backwards like Kris Kross“

    “I don’t give a f---, god sent me to pissed the world off”

    Etc

    I'm empty inside.

    Anyway, he thought those popstars that he dissed were bad. There were probably some pop stars whom he enjoyed.

    Looks like he didn’t use that motivation for long, since he pretty much decided to be a pop artist
