Drake rapping over the "BBL Drizzy" beat and trying to flip it to mean "bad bitches love Drizzy" is all-time corny behavior. If he was gonna hop on that beat it needed to be like the same day it dropped Doing it now after you lost and no one cares anymore is sooooooo sad

New Sosa is good, especially Believe. It’s wild to think he’s been in the game for so long but he’s only 28 now. Chief Keef probably the most influential artist of the 2010’s.

I remember seeing statistics from inside Interscope Records that Keef was generating more revenue and producing more "clicks" than any artist they had sighned at the time which was people like Lady Gaga and shit. Dude is important.

Hell Gucci gave Sosa the co-sign to help elevate him from Chicago into the national stage

chief keef didn’t need any co-signs because he was already on his way up. if anything, the i don’t like remix and feature on yeezus gave him a bit more reach.

i love gucci and there’s no question his influence is seismic but i think his pedigree as an A&R/record owner is a bit overrated. besides waka and thug and most recently pooh shiesty his signings haven’t really amounted to much other than some spots on the livemixtapes homepage…

Put on for Future, Migos, Peewee Longway

Put on for Future, Migos, Peewee Longway mike will no doubt, but i think metro was already producing for future first. i think metro has attested to this many times before. his first big break was the hard beat, which future used. “putting on for” doesn’t really mean much though. future didn’t need a gucci co-sign, he was already hood famous in atlanta. same goes for the migos, gucci never did anything for their careers. the YRN tape was a quality control release.

if you want to play six degrees of separation then sure a lot of the street rap shit in the A is tied to gucci no matter what. i’m just saying i think that sometimes the A&R mastermind tag is revisionist.

I think purely from a musical standpoint, a good chunk of what is going on in rap can be traced back to Keef. Him and Lil B honestly.

If I had to rank the most influential hip hop artists of the 2010s:
Chief Keef Lil B Odd Future Spaceghostpurrp Future Yung Thug Migos Yung Lean Black Kray Asap Rocky (or Travis Scatt or Nicki Minaj)
Kanye, Kendrick, Gucci and Drake popped off before 2010 so I don't count them.

I’d put Lil Ugly Mane in there. He basically gave every white kid who seriously wanted to do this the roadmap and the rubric.

And tbh I'd say Waka Flocka Flame prolly has more claim to a spot than Lil Ugly Mane.

Maxeboy literally predicted the future when he dropped "Shawty Wanna Fuck" in 2009 and I'm not kidding. Forget Kray, Bladee, SGP, or whoever as the most ahead of their time artist, that title goes to Maxeboy. And ya'll can quote me on that.

Rocky and Travis Scatt and Nicki Minaj are not influential.
Rocky was an NYC guy swaggerjacking Houston rap and that’s still his only worthwhile stuff. Travis Scatt is a Houston guy trying to sound like whatever the fuck is hot right now and hasn’t done anything worth listening to since Rodeo. Nicki Minaj legit tried (and failed) to rebrand as a pop artist in the mid 2010s (I remember that “pound the alarm” bullshit).
Ugly Mane legit paved the way for a Wicca Phase who paved the way for Peep who opened up the whole world for white dudes who seriously wanted to rap hard.

James K try not to give a delusional take, difficulty level: unfathomable
Alright bro if you can't see how Travis' production took over everything we've heard since like 2015 through now, how Rocky paved the way for artists like Lil Uzi Vert or Yachty, or how Nicki is the blueprint for all the female artists that we see today like Megan, Glo, and Sexyy Red then idk what to say.

I’d put Lil Ugly Mane in there. He basically gave every white kid who seriously wanted to do this the roadmap and the rubric. looking at it in hindsight, i don’t think there’d ever be suicideboys or any of the more rock-adjacent-mixed-with-southern-hip-hop aesthetic white boy offshoots (seshhollowwaterboys, pouya, fat nick, sematary, etc) without LUM’s mista thug isolation. he also single-handedly brought back interest in memphis rap tapes which are being sampled heavily now by mainstream producers.

Yung Lean is hella influential, not only elevating cloud rap and emo rap, but also laying the foundations for what would later become tread and rage. And with Lean you kinda have to also consider his online presence, the aesthetics, and fashion and his overall contributions to the golden age of Soundcloud rap 2013-15 which would influence basically every rapper from 2016 onwards. Lean was the blueprint and his run from Unknown Death 2002 through Warlord was insane and continues to influence the new generation.
He made Kyoto, nuff said.
