No he didn’t…..he was just into different things as a black kid….the same things you all are now fuccin with……..ex. Supreme ….when a black man doesn’t act like what y’all call the normal black boy, y’all try his blackness
Tyler definitely one of those folks that discovered his black identity later than his peers & yet been on a tirade about it ever since.
Gambino adjacent for sure.
You all are now getting to look at the inside from out…..this is a common thing…..one record doesn’t work or come out because of xyz, it gets shopped again until it’s picked up.
On a grand scale, growing up a black boy that skates, wore the skate brands, liked different music along with all the same shit you niggas was into but being told “you act white” was a reality…and now the same niggas tryna be “artsy” for the gram + dress like they skate.. L O L
A black owned brand being so high in demand that people are paying resale prices for them is fye......like......that’s hard......is it not? I’m trippin?
@7Creamo
You didn’t have to act like him but does that make him less black because of it? Think about it….as a real Atlanta nigga, I lived that reality….skating and/or wearing those brands wasn’t common…mfs would say you acting white because of that and point is that shit lame
Y’all acting like this shit common knowledge lol don’t be a dicc head to the people who don’t know……that shit weird lol just keep scrolling if you “knew” already
The industry done made it weird to actually just kick it & genuinely get to know each other to create those producer/artists relationships....I’m tryna being the chemistry back.
Nipsey Hussle’s music always triggered a new thought process, humbly telling me to get on my shit & that everything gone be ight. It curated a vibe for me that made me comfortable with the concept of my life being a marathon & not a race especially with us having common goals.

Hip but I’m generally speaking for niggas like me growing up in cities like Atlanta where black boys ain’t skate heavy + had a different overall style vs the typical black boy that were always told “you acting white” or “that’s not no nigga shit”…like in the tweet I quoted
The whole era of early Mac Miller, Wiz, Curren$y, Dom, Nip, Kendrick, Cole, Drake, etc. really shaped my views on more than just music and I’ve always wanted to be able to tell each of them what they did for me musically and mentally.
I know I don't go to Howard anymore but I just saw Kasim Reed in Lenox. I yelled out HU and of course he responded with the "You Know". My day has been made.
Honored to be chosen by Apple Music to get my own playlist….Thank you to all my supporters, listeners, and artists who have been apart of my journey 🤝🏾🛹
I can’t lie.......this hurt....not because I knew him or had a connection but I’m really tired of seeing young niggas die.........especially after becoming successful......like sick to my stomach of that shit.
“I need a Lauren London” or “Y’all niggas ain’t nothing like Nipsey.....blah blah blah” tweets getting blocked cause clearly none of y’all are like either if you gotta speak on it. Y’all being pick me’s instead of letting y’all actions speak.
I swear it’s a thin line between internet narratives and flat out dicc riding……like how everybody just wake up and say they hate a black & white shoe so much? 😂
With this JD & Puff producer battle talk, my take is this………the nigga who was actually sitting behind the beat machine & the boards is automatically the winner……case closed. Ion wanna hear nan else bout y’all tryna downplay JD.
Some shorty asked me to hit my blunt yesterday, & then gone ask why I said no with this puzzled face like I was supposed to say yes or sum. Hell wrong with her?
This artist just inquired about beats from me so I told em prices & he instantly asked why I’m “taxing” & said “you got big songs or sum?” So I googled myself and showed him, then his whole attitude changed….so I just thought to myself & realized like damn….we really here now.
At the corner store and this young nigga and his folks was like “Aye you that producer right? Skate or sum like that? Aye yo shit hard. Keep that shit coming my boy.”
3.5 million streams and counting (off YouTube alone), and a billboard charting record later....here we are today. Lots of hard work and connecting the dots...not even a full year.....Tap in and let’s work. DM me,
