i used kendrick lamar and drake as examples outside of mumble rap.
jay z is a business man. he's gonna sign whatever is hot at the moment to make money. if you remember back when rocafella was poppin he signed literally every NY dude who was ever dope in an attempt to strengthen the roster. mop/mobb deep etc. see how that worked out for him. why sign talent when you can sign a random hot mumble rapper and rape them.
busta rhymes is a drunk lmao. who'd he cosign tho, i remember him jumping around with ot genesis, falling off stages
the day a producer i respect fucks with them is the day i'll stop. you won't see premier cosign this. he'd rather work with real singers and make actual pop music. pete rock don't fuck with this. alchemist don't fuck with these dudes, he fucks with the new HIP HOP dudes. dr dre lost credibility years ago. he used to set trends now he follows them. just listen to that bullshit compton album.
the people i respect don't respect mumble rap. if you want to post the tracks with nas de la soul etc where they are collabing with a lil uzi vert go ahead i'll check them out
