    Whether it's because of their music, their antics or both.

    I'll start

    1) T.I.

    Was at the top of the game in 2000s. Dropping some incredible albums like Trap Muzik, King and Paper Trail.

    But the music took a huge drop during the 2010s and the weird s--- started coming out. Man getting his daughter's hymen checked to make sure she's still a virgin. The sexual assault allegations, the dumb s--- he says. I never let someone's antics sway me away from their music but he's made it hard to be a fan.

    2) Game

    Had an incredible launch to his career dropping 2 classic albums and a couple really good albums. But the quality of his music has gone down consistently ever since and every moment this guy opens his mouth he embarrasses himself. The name dropping in his music has gotten old really quickly as well.

    Kanye. At this point his personal life and erratic behaviour has overshadowed his music, which has also been subpar for years.

    Eminem: released 3 of the best hip hop albums of all time after that all the albums were mediocre at best. Today people even criticize his business moves that come off as money grab. The NFTs and a best of album in streaming era. He gets a lot of negative feedback from fans and critics and he gets a lot of passes from his fans and because he still sells good

    CamRon for thinking he could take on the gawdfather 50 Cent


    Tony Yayo alone was too much for CamRon which is why he disappeared for a whole summer!

    Drake also hurt his legacy a lot with making mediocre music, ripping peoples sound, being kinda a culture vulture, the black face, his secret child…

    Eminem is the obvious answer. TI is a good one. Game never had a legacy he just seems bigger to people who are on a Shady Aftermath centric forum.

    Drake could have had a really interesting career if he kept progressing with the Take Care/So Far Gone sound but he chose to become a generic pop act instead. Pretty hard to blame him but will always wonder what could have been. Would say the same for The Weeknd too, sadly.

    Kendrick Lamar. I feel like his urge to try go be overly creative really put a dent on what he could of been.

    I agree but the most kendrick fans seem satisfied with his music and he never gets criticized. What do you think are his downs? And what did you want him to be?
