Apr 26, 2016 Holy s---. Are you f---ing kidding me? How are you this bad at reading? My point in this entire thread--including in the post you quoted--is that it's absolutely insane to predict that Thug will end up anything like Wayne. I also said that it's premature to write off his commercial chances entirely, because Wayne was virtually nowhere (nationally speaking) when he was even further along than Thug is now. Pointing out that someone shouldn't be written off isn't the same as saying they're going to end up surpassing one of the biggest rappers of this century, you dolt.
Apr 27, 2016 Recap for your handicap: Me: thug isn't going to blow You: that's a dumb opinion. Here's a thugger/Wayne comparison to back up why your opinion is so dumb. Me: why are you making a thugger/Wayne comparison? The two aren't similar enough. You: holy s---, you're dumb as s---. Wayne and thugger aren't alike...proceeds to make another thugger/Wayne correlation. ...get your s--- together. Either make your posts clearer, or don't be so god d--- over-aggressive. The only thing "absolutely insane" about any of this exchange is that you jumped down my throat for simply saying that he's not going to blow...as if your opinion is somehow the only correct one and everyone else is dumb as s---. You're very capable of being wrong, you pompous b------.
Apr 27, 2016 You were so desperate for me to be wrong that you assigned me an opinion that I disagreed with IN THE POST YOU QUOTED. Read better. EDIT; The point I've made--in multiple posts now, which you've replied to seemingly without reading them--is that Wayne was a commercial anomaly and doesn't work as an analogy for Thug except insofar as you can't write off an artist less than five years in. I'm confused as to how you're getting where you're getting.
Apr 27, 2016 he needs to come out with something fresh or he's gonna miss his window all his s--- since barter 6 sounds the same he doesn't have any GREAT CLASSICS either he needs a hit before it's too late
Apr 27, 2016 im still laughing at this still and have no general opinion on this thread as thug blowing up further all depends on him at this point
Apr 27, 2016 I think so. Everyone in HS/College f---s with Thug. Idk anyone who doesn't at least know who he is in my age bracket. So yeah I think he will. Needs them pop features and co signs but he'll get there. Will he be Em or Wayne or 50 big? f--- if I know. But he'll get there man.
Apr 27, 2016 Man when I was in Tokyo they had him blasting pretty regularly at many places, even the Tokyo Tower. I think he's getting big.
Apr 27, 2016 thug is just one good hit from blowing up. I think the biggest thing holding him back is his "image". All my friends who converted didn't want to give him a chance because of his image. Once they gave him a chance with an open mind it was a wrap. He isn't really doing controversial stuff these days so he just needs another good hit and he will make it. He also has enough songs in the vault for everyone(love song, bangers, conscious songs). He just needs to arrange them well and put out good project when he has enough momentum. Hopefully lyor won't fck this up by changing his creative process or choosing the wrong songs. TLDR; Thuggers career is in lyors hands.
Apr 27, 2016 elton john is a whor- who will work with anyone for some time in the spot light. but thug is pretty big people listen to him in australia and worldwide
Apr 27, 2016 To do really good numbers as far as record sales and to have hits on the hot 100 billboard chart u need a really big white fan base Young Thug's fan base is black people what makes him part of who is the fact his fan base is black people mainly from the hood We can hope he will make it mainstream but i'm not sure if he can get that white demographic that buys record
Apr 27, 2016 he was HUGE...he was puttin fear in the game and had it in a chokehold from 05 till 09...even though we had Yeezy,Jeezy,Juelz,TI,Fab at the time but Weezy was just Outstanding....every song at the time had a Weezy feature...Thugga is gonna have to work alot more and dont let Elton John's cosign faze you because Weezy was cosigned by greats as well...so lets see what happens but i think Thug will get to his 150k a week in like 2 more years
Apr 27, 2016 oh and lets not forget all the rappers now are a product of Weezys doing..especially Young Thug and even Future...they have a big influence from Wayne
Apr 27, 2016 its true about what you said about how alot of ppl didnt like Wayne at the time....he was something new and fresh that some ppl werent ready or used to...sort of the same thing thats happening with Thugger now
