ITT: Painfully obvious industry plants

ITT: Painfully obvious industry plants

please explain why the industry would plant this fuck

death grips

is that grimes

Peep is an anti-plant bro

papa johns misty

but he switches lane's with gucci mane

I hear this a lot and it makes zero sense because he's been in the industry for a goddamn while

>everyone who builds an audience without a major label in the internet age is an industry plant
yes good goys, only trust the labels, unsigned artists cannot be trusted!

How can someone on a well known label be an "industry plant?" At that point you're just openly a part of the industry, there's no "plant" aspect to it.

He purposefully self-reinvented to sellout.

Every popular rapper right now

Probably the most obvious industry plant of this era.

Imagine falling off at age 20

Industry plant no, political plant, yes. Guess what his dad does?

going back in time The Strokes

but they were good, i was conflicted about that

Not true

How most people don't see this is beyond me.

Yeah I know his dad has some political/government job in Chicago and his uncle is Spike Lee. Shit, Spike Lee just being his uncle just kicked down so many music industry doors for him and he hardly had to try.

>I WISH THAT I COULD BE LIKE THE COOL KIDS
>LIKE THE KOOL CIDS

this

the strokes are an industry plant like a rollercoaster is fake danger. who cares, it's still fun. i should hope every industry plant would be actually interesting and show actual professional fucking ability.

>"Coloring Book: a spike lee's nephew's joint"

Mac demarco is a cigarette industry plant

no way on that one and i thnk you'd have to be a little bit stupid to honestly believe that.

"zach hill rap project" was enough to get attention, and the crazy internet shit helped.

...

>Industry plant no, political plant, yes.
this, and there is an important difference between the two.

Chance was pretty popular with his Acid Rap mixtape but he started receiving major attention when the powers that be decided they could use him as a political shill.

Hi Sup Forums

to make genuine shit rappers seem better by comparison

the beatles

appeals to a very particular, big demographic AND promotes hardcore drug use/general laziness, all for "anti establishment" AKA controlled opposition.

Actually thinking about that now, I feel like Vic Mensa would've been more of a political plant...that's kind of a tough call between the two though. Then again they could both be.

Vic Mensa representing the more rebellious/protesting aspect of it. Chance representing the "Let's all work together for equality and democracy guys!" aspect.

>Then again they could both be.
A huge majority are

Vic Mensa represents all that is cheesy.

mmm yes the jews did this...makes sense

such a goofball

Lol guys leave Vic alone, he's actually a really cool and nice guy. I met him last summer

t. vic

Lil Peep is too dumb to be a plant

>too dumb to be a plant
thats literally the point

Why would you plant a guy unless he can do something for your group?

>what is the "useful idiot"

Fucking dumbass.

>he can do something for your group?
they do what they're told. be stupid or (atleast the persona) is easier. I bet even kendrick is (((directed))) on things.

My point is he's too much of an idiot to be a useful idiot. He's drugged out all the time, no way Peep can focus on whatever grand scheme the Zionist lizard wizards have for him

He's selling out, but I wouldn't say he's an industry plant. Had talent, plus came from a wealthy family to grant him better opportunities than most. His meteoric rise is very interesting though

>no way Peep can focus on whatever grand scheme the Zionist lizard wizards have for him
thats literally his point. to glamorize the drugged out life, same with keef and all the others.

occams razor, son

If you don't think Robin got to where he is through sheer talent alone...

>implying social engineering overlords would want their labor base to get hooked on drugs

>joanna newsom
whats her point? She makes the least accessible and non-radio friendly music?

his role is being high all the time and spewing out bullshit
>faggot teens love that shit

>would want their labor base to get hooked on drugs
jesus Sup Forums is so stupid.
thats EXACTLY what they want.
drugs nurture apathy

He'd be fulfilling that role whether or not he was a plant. That's not even a useful role either

PEEP USED TO BE TIGHT BUT I THINK HE DROPPED TOO MANY XANS. CRYBABY WAS SIIICCCCC BUT HELLBOY SUCKED. ANYONE AGREE?

Apathy nurtures shit employees. Would you want guys showing up to work baked and messing around on the clock all day?

they dont want good workers who strive for goals. they want bear minimum pissants who are interchangeable .

that would be a great plan if every business was McDonald's

>if every business was McDonald's
which is exactly where they want people working.

I always see these "Industry Plant" threads, and they make no sense. Can you retards even give an example of a REAL PROVEN plant is or is it just another "something I don't like boogeyman"? Do you seriously think a label would go through the trouble of secretly signing someone and paying people to act as fans for an artist so they can have someone pretend to be an independant artist?

What's the point of taking control of only the bottom rung of the economy

>An industry plant is an artist who has Major/Indie Label backing their movement but presents themselves as a "home grown start up" label to create a pseudo organic following. They act as if things are miraculously happening for them based on their talent (via blog coverage, media coverage, mtv playing their vids, etc.) The reality is a low risk/high reward situation for labels looking to build the next "new star"

desiigner is exactly that idiot

i always thought it meant "someone planted by the industry" to trick the public

but it actually means like them growing a plant (in artist form)??

>only the bottom rung of the economy
They have the bottom and middle.
Taking control of the top is often risky and filled with tedious caveats.

The middle-class has the most money willing to throw at products or people in this case.

And keep incarceration rates high

Desiigner only has 3 songs and everyone realized he was shit after Timmy Turner, if he was a plant he would have put out an album in 2016 after Panda to capitalize on his popularity but now the public has largely forgot about him.

why would he need to put out an album
he made his team plenty of money with panda
have you heard of one hit wonders?

literally PewDePie with tatoos

Middle class people aren't drug addicted fast food workers though

Many are.
And the line between lower and middle is pretty blurry.

we need idiots working shitty jobs, we cant afford anyone being a manager or similar shit like that

literally who

Do you actually think that's the bottom-rung of society?

>joanna newsom
yea nah, just cause you can't into wacky harp lady doesn't mean she's bad

>occams razor, son
ykno you're actually making some pretty big assumptions so i don't think that applies here

no, you had it right the first time

more like can't into autistic screeching because I'm not deaf

Beyonce
didn't get a grammy? much racism

????

What if he was planted BY that label?

Nah not XXXtentacion. He's actually been around for 3 years now and he kept up a fanbase of people who would listen to SpaceGhostPurrp, Pouya, Denzel Curry, Robb Banks, etc. All of whom also supported him and spread the news about him going to jail for assaulting his girlfriend. Which started this #FreeX shit, also feminists ended up making him famous too by spreading his name out there.
