    funny how the young thug fans are quick to attack the eminem/kanye/kendrick/pac fans, yet they're even worse and use even worse arguments.

    I'm not saying anything about the artist here... I'm talking about the fans.

    Like some people been saying for a few days, the double standard is crazy with them.

    yeah i'm not gonna try to force somebody to like someone they clearly don't like, but if you say something like you don't understand how he's so popular i'm gonna tell you why.
    i don't mean to sound bossy or anything there btw

    why are you treating "____ fans" as if this is a sports discussion.

    i'm not a "fan" of anybody, in the sense i'm not buying posters for my bedroom wall or wearing merch. i'm a critic. young thug makes phenomenal, innovative music. period.

    lmao it wasn't "for a few days" and it wasn't "some people"

    it was yesterday, and it was besky making a bad attempt at a joke by twisting what i said, and people like you ate it up

    in this thread alone you've exaggerated about it twice already :'(

    you're ridiculous

    If we speak about innovation:
    Dizzee Rascal >>>>> Young Thug

    He did everything in 2003 what Thug's doing right now.

    Just listen to him.

    dizzee rascal was one of the few grime mcs who crossed over in the states--perhaps the highwater mark for the genre in america. there's nothing similar about their music. clean your ears.

    And BS is just such an average rapper with corny lines here and there, and the unnecessary double time flows he uses randomly are stupid

    I'm fine with young thug, he's not my taste but I don't hate him, I don't hate anybody. But like the guy above me said, the double-standards his fans have when it comes to other artists is disgusting.

    In only 2 pages, you can read that young thug is too smart for people, he has a goat work ethic, hes the most innovative rapper since ghostface killah and he has proven himself as one of the best rappers. It's funny because their arguments is EXACTLY the same as the arguments of the people they make fun of. They're quick to say Kanye has the worst fans in music history but they're the first ones to use the same arguments when they can.

    They act like they're music critics, yet they have poor musical knowledge and the only thing they can say is they know better than you.

    i've written thousands of words about young thug in major publications that argue this in detail. i've also spoken highly of kanye.

    I know, cause Dizzee is more grime than rap, but they still sound similar imo

    EDIT: For instance...
    That sounds like Thugger

    See, that's why you're shitposter - still talking trash without any reason or sense. Stop bitchin around man.

    so your argument against a rapper is that he has dumb people arguing on his behalf? then literally every artist in history is disqualified from being deemed great or innovative or w/e
