Is his arrogance an act, real but delusional, or real and well earned?

Is his arrogance an act, real but delusional, or real and well earned?

> B I P O L A R
also autism

an act and well earned

All of the above.

He plays it up because you don't stay relevant for being mild-mannered.

He's objectively successful in his field, so he's earned being an asshole in that regard. At the end of the day, all the people that call his music garbage are more likely than not going home to continue being worth 1/100th his net worth or less.

Doesn't mean he's likeable, and I don't particularly enjoy his music, but his work ethic and success are respectable.

Almost definitely an act. No idea why he's doing it.

>you don't stay relevant for being mild-mannered
drake, j cole, kendrick

>Industry plant
>Took balls to take a risk and it worked out
>Not mild mannered

It doesn't even matter what's real and what's exaggerated for the camera anymore

He knows that he can do whatever the fuck he wants and be widely praised for doing it regardless of whether its a stellar piece of art or a steaming hunk of shit

I think one of the best things about him is that he plays off the 'loud obnoxious black man' stereotype so well that it confuses white people to either the point of rabid fandom or utter disgust

which are both inherently racist responses I mean the former sort of people are 100% cucks who are forever asking if they can touch a nigga's afro

while the latter simply just don't like the way he is 'too black, too vocal and too flagrant' - white people who want their house niggas to be passive and smile silently, but kanye aint gonna smile for no honkey camera and he certainly aint gonna shut up for no white bitches

Type A personalities ALWAYS come off as arrogant. It's what he is and he can't change it.

I think it's a well earned delusion

All memes

i was subjected to watching an interview between him and ellen and he was extremelly awkward
she had to carry the entire converstaion
he mostly responded in 1-2 word replies
it was fucked, he must be very socially awkward

>your opinion is irrelevant if you don't make as much money as someone
wow that is the hottest opinion i've read today

with that logic, critics cannot comment on movies because they don't make as much money as the director

isn't that stupid?

so mayb e next time think before you post

>reading comprehension
its nothing to do with how much you earn. If you've made your success through your art, it literally no longer matters what people think of you - even hatred at this point would only fan the flames of your popularity.

>its nothing to do with how much you earn.
Not him but that is literally what you just implied here
>all the people that call his music garbage are more likely than not going home to continue being worth 1/100th his net worth or less
...And then you made the same argument again here
>If you've made your success through your art, it literally no longer matters what people think of you - even hatred at this point would only fan the flames of your popularity
Appeal to Popularity arguments huh? I guess the most best-selling artists are the best, huh?

rich people's syndrome: the more money you get, the more arrogant you are.

He's autistic and should be in a home being interviewed by Louis Theorux, not being paraded in front of the world's media.

Only kendrick is relevant
The othe rtwo are boring muh feels whiny effeminate rappers that your girlfriend listens to

Drake's been trying to get edgier as time goes on, Kendrick became relevant for calling out a fuckton of artists and TPAB still causes asspain for people around here

>you don't stay relevant for being mild-mannered
You don't stay relevant by being a dick, otherwise Gene Simmons would be a major figure and not a joke.

>He plays it up because you don't stay relevant for being mild-mannered.
If his art was good, he wouldn't need to play a dick to stay relevant.

>Drake
>the most listened artists in the world right now
>not relevant

Hes desperate because Drake is the Number One rapper and Popstar in the world.

So he fell off financially and in quality overall.
Sad.

>your girlfriend listens to
Then it's relevant.

Are you a virgin or something?

>...And then you made the same argument again here
I'm not the same poster, silly.

>I guess the most best-selling artists are the best, huh?

sorry, but point out to me where mentioned anything about artistic merit being part of the criteria of judging an artist's net worth? and also anything about the average listener's opinion being irrelevant as you 'quoted' in your original response? Because he didn't. you pulled that strawman 'opinion' right out of your arse.

>Only kendrick is relevant

Kendrick is for faggots, but i admit he made a few good songs tho, without the Leftist hipster media hes nothing.

Hes maybe the most relevant manlet rapper right now, competing with Swae Lee and Kodak Black.

It's a real shame the self-affirming project of TPAB was appropriated by the self-indulgent 'cause' of black lives matter. It's a fantastic album which says more about racial tensions in america than BLM will ever do

>He's objectively successful in his field, so he's earned being an asshole in that regard. At the end of the day, all the people that call his music garbage are more likely than not going home to continue being worth 1/100th his net worth or less.

LMFAO, his "field" have a very weak competition, is too easy to make hip-hop, plus his style is very very sample based, and he almost copied-plagiarised Tear For Fears and Aphex Twin melodies to make songs for MBDTF and 808&Heartbreak.

You talking about Net Worth... hahaaha his big money was when he peaked as a Pop rapper, with Late Registration, College Dropout and Graduation, with his latest Number One single, "Stronger". Making money with pop music with a major label boosting you with marketing is easy.

Now, his flowchart about business is laughable.
Plus, he asked Zuckerberg for 1 billion, LMAO. You know you have to power to got a bigger "Net worth" ..

>mentioned anything about artistic merit being part of the criteria of judging an artist's net worth?
Show me where I said that was my argument.
>and also anything about the average listener's opinion being irrelevant as you 'quoted' in your original response? Because he didn't.
Incorrect. I already showed you where it was. Try again

They'll never admit it. But its almost orchestrated. Most people use the "social capital"/ "social justice labels", just to commercialize it, most blatant recent case is... the Industry Doll, Beyoncé with her fake justice cause, fake "beef" with Jay Z, fake everything.

Fuck this garbage man.

If he is an act than he's pretty good at it. If he's not, that would mean he has serious issues and it's pretty morbid that everyone makes fun of him and people genuinely want him to die.

his upper lip looks like a clit
>filename related

>Being this autisto
time to get off Sup Forums

He married a fat pornstar left his favorite brand for some shitty beaner/slav brand, his mom died and his last 2 albums flopped hard.

I think he's very unhappy

you didn't show me anything. eroniously assumed that the average listener's opinions are irrelevant because they don't earn as much money as him. Nowhere in was that actually mentioned, all he did was state a fairly obvious fact. If you agree with , you're spinning what is nothing more than statistical probability into a statement concerning the validity of the average listener's opinions. They can call it garbage, but that isn't gonna infringe on his success one bit. Bad publicity is still publicity.

I'm not the same poster, silly.

Beyonce: a role model for strong feminist women and the child sweatshop workers being trampled under their expensive heels.

This
Every decade or so there will be one, remember in the 00's when Puff Daddy was the arrogant/famous negro?
The funny thing about KW is that he's only relevant in murrica and uk, I never heard him on the radio o seen him on tv, if he came to south america he would be playing in a half empy clubs.
Same goes for 90% of hip-hop "stars", The Strokes are way bigger than Beyonce here

>tripfag
>dumb as fuck
basically synonyms but still

I'm certain he's autistic

I've spotted a white boy who doesn't know jack shit of what he's talking about

Real and delusional but self-aware and played up to the max.

Narcissists know that they are narcissists, it's their thing and it becomes part of their theatrics.

Drake is well-known for being an asshole behind the scenes, unlike the other two rappers you mentioned.

He just doesn't present that attitude publicly like Kanye does.

>Hes maybe the most relevant manlet rapper right now
you're forgetting kanye

The real question is why are we rewarding this behavior?

When a child acts up, you put him in time-out. You don't give him a Grammy

>The real question is why are we rewarding this behavior?

I think the reason he is lauded so much by P4K et al, is that he's their darling, and this is all some sort of inside joke to humiliate his lack of awareness that he is being used as a public spectacle.

Throwing crumbs to the ducks, I guess.

>Drake is well-known for being an asshole behind the scenes

Proof?

I just don't see how the current Kanye is the same fucking Kanye that wrote "Momma."

Like what the fuck?

>wrote

>cucks
opinion discarded

as much as I hate kanye as a person, you're delusional if you can't accept his talent. he's easily the most influential producer alive today.

Tell me about his drum miking techniques,

>At the end of the day, all the people that call his music garbage are more likely than not going home to continue being worth 1/100th his net worth or less.
Which doesn't say anything about the quality of his music.

>while the latter simply just don't like the way he is 'too black, too vocal and too flagrant' - white people who want their house niggas to be passive and smile silently, but kanye aint gonna smile for no honkey camera and he certainly aint gonna shut up for no white bitches
I hope this is bait.

You know forest hills is a platinum album right?

J cole is the industry plant, right? And Drake took the risk?
