    No Earthgang album till 10/29. And their track list is on their IG story on the CD promo slide. I didn’t see Cole or any other Dreamville artist featured.

    Been off earthgang. ain’t been feeling their latest releases. n----s kinda weird, Dreamville need to sign some more artists. Wonder what’s stopping them from signing people, they ain’t put nobody on since earthgang and jid in 2017, that’s crazy, it’s like interscope put a cap on the amount of artists they could sign lol. I feel they should break away from interscope, it ain’t like they helping the artists that drop sell, what they need them for??? Earthgang last album debuted at 114 or billboard 200, that’s a flop tbr lol, I’m not even sure bas last s--- charted lol. Only ones who can sell decent are jid and ari

    wonder what morray got going on, I heard he was having problems with his label pick six, wish they could sign him, and revamp his career.. also, a female rapper, that’s a must, been saying it

    I still feel like dreamville wasting years, so much potential and s--- they could be into and doing with that label, idk what’s going on inside or with interscope, but I’m just thinking

I knew it was something, cause them n----s ain’t doing that for no reason lol. All 3 are under universal in some way.. cole and Kendrick under interscope and Drake republic

    Sometimes I do wish Cole would stop being so friendly because they sure as h--- don’t be caring about his feelings or friendship. To me, JID seems phony.

    I did see somewhere people was saying it’s talks amongst dreamville , they don’t f--- with Kendrick after all that’s been going on. Think Wayno put it out there.. then they said jid posted on IG he wasn’t in those dreamville talks, and he deleted it.. idk tho, I could honestly see bas, omen , and cozz , not feeling Kendrick.. especially bas and omen , they been there since the beginning, they seem closer to cole than the others.. plus omen already dissed Kendrick some years back lol.. jid seem like the type of n----- that’ll stay neutral.

    I don’t think it was a Dreamville artist. If someone did say that, I think that it probably was Felton, Matt or them Since the 80’s guys

    Yea. Then I saw somewhere ib said that wasn’t true.. but idk, I think it’s some truth to it, cause how Wayno gon just come out and say that??? He heard it from somewhere, and you know Wayno was doing interviews or something at dreamville fest , so I’m sure he talked to some people in the inside at dreamville.. but yea, if it is talks it’s def amongst the ones closer to cole that work behind the scenes.. the dudes you named and I would include omen and bas , cause they artists on the label, but they seem like they would be closer to cole like them dudes behind the scene

    Jid do seem like the type of n----- that’s fanned out. I feel like, if I knew cole personally and I don’t know Kendrick, and I’m just a fan of the n----- music, and him and cole had a problem, I would ride for cole.. I wouldn’t jump out the window and be like f--- Kendrick , but at the same time, if someone ask , ima say I’m riding with cole.. jid seem like the type of n----- that’ll be like, I’m staying out of it, I f--- with dot and cole lol , he the type that would get a feature from Kendrick amongst the beef on some industry s--- lol

    Tyler doesn’t do it for me. Weird and experimental just for the sake of being weird and experimental. Doesn’t feel natural like Andre 3000, Kool Keith, Danny Brown, Lil B or Busta from back in the day. It’s like he feels he has to do all these costumes and new characters or he’s not progressing as an artist. I dunno, just seems forced. I knew that St. Chroma snippet video would be “artsy” before I clicked on it.

    And the lyrics on it? Woof. Nothing creative, substantive or memorable in his bars. It’s style, aesthetic and “weirdness” over substance. It’s like he knows his bars are weak so he whispers his raps to be different. s----s wack.

    https://genius.com/Tyler-the-creator-st-chroma-lyrics

    It’s a wet dream for critics though. They eat this faux artsy s--- up.

    I never cared for him. I remember all the mess he kept up on Twitter and tumblr (anti-Black stuff, homophobia only to later come out *eyeroll *, just corny edgelord shock value crap) his rebrand has been interesting. And the music sucks.
