artist nowadays

music certainly has changed. there are some talented artist out but at the same time some really make you go wtf. this is just my opinion on some of the popular entertainers out now

nicki minaj- nicki as a brand is amazing. whoever ever her A&R people are they knew what they were doing. she may be a biter or whatever but its not who did it first its who did it best. she took this whole barbie thing and made herself a household name. she inspired a generation of girls to walk out of the house looking like some damn fools but spread her name which is the goal of any artist.her style is outlandish def stands out from watered down artist who allow themselves to be constantly photographed in cookie cutter dresss  lyrically ehhhh im not the biggest minaj fan. she is on my list of women id smash, but im not gonna spend any money on her album. while she def does manage to deliver some good one liners im not really impressed by her predicate/subject brand of young money rap. as a makeup addict i love her makeup she can go from semi natural to old hollywood to futuristic candy coated. but i see longevity in her

drake- wheelchair jimmy.....drake is lil wayne's avatar. he beside nicki is the only member of young money who seems to have the labels support. he has a major fan base that is extremely loyal and helped him to become best new artist just from the strength of his mixtapes. i forsee him being around for quite awhile. im not a major fan but hes entertaining enough. his lyrical content is a nice stray from the wasted gunplay that is so popular from most southern rappers who he is clearly heavily influenced by (even if he looks like a toe with eyebrows)


gucci mane- i really dont know what to say about him. hes uber popular but has limited rhyming skills. he is the definition of a rapper in that he is strictly an entertainer. he goes to jail everytime he releases an album and that only helps to boost his popularity. most of his fanbase enoys four loko and kush and probably went to everest college. his music sounds good as hell when youre drunk at 2am but dont look for any deep meaning in his lyrics. just get wasted and enjoy

wale- love love love him. great artist but dont ever come for kanye again sir
the dream- all his albums sound the same, but they are all great. great beats and production coupled with baby making lyrics make him a noticed r&b singer even though his voice isnt much, there are few genuine r&b singers around nowadays. he doesnt have the sex symbol factor but his music def puts you in the mood

janelle monae- gorgeous woman with a beautiful voice. she has range and lyrical content. unfortunately she will never be as popular as she deserves that entertainment for you

roscoe dash- kill yourself

those teach me  how to jerk niggas- see roscoe dash

im sure im missing some people but ive given up on popular culture
