    Because you need to buy Rosetta Stone in order to understand what he's saying

    Because he's unconventional. He's not your typical rap artist and not to mention we live in an era where "real hip hop" fans flood the internet so in order to be with that crowd, bashing on Thugger is pretty much a must.

    too much progression in one rapper. thug is 5 years ahead of the game rn and people are lightyears behind. people can't even begin to understand his greatness.

    Wayne took years to become big. Could be similar for Thug.

    Wayne debuted at number 3 when he was 17. Had Cash Money behind him. Sold 200,000+ first week and 100,000+ second week. Not a fair comparison.

    The guy is creative.. one of the reasons a lot of us on here like it. But for a lot of casual music listeners he is just a mumbling moron. Not saying I agree with that but I played some songs to people I know (and some rap fans, who also like wayne/future) and they said wtf is this guy mumbling. And most of his production sounds the same to them.

    For the record, my favourite thug songs (good times, proud of me, pacifier, power, paradise) have a kind of different production than he usually has.

    People havent figured him out yet so they cant put him in a box. He's too different, but id say just give him time.

    He's had hits so it's definitely not the music that's in question. Im hoping his debut lp is big for him
