An obvious plant is an obvious plant. Most people in here have given credit that he's made some pretty good music. But a poser is a poser. It wasn't too long ago he was "giving up rap" and heading back to his country/techno stuff after siphoning money from rap. Now he's back with an album with a handful of rappers on it. People have said the same about Travis Scott, Drake, and Asap Rocky.
The same way how it wasn't that long ago that people were still spewing this negativity in his direction. God forbid a 21 year old kid makes an impulsive decision or speaks before thinking.
Rap is so critical that it defeats itself time and time again. The originators wanted to express themselves and used that expression to convey their thoughts and opinions to other groups of people. Hip hop/rap was a voice of the people that was successfully heard by others. Now other people have shown appreciation for the culture to the point where they attempt inclusion, as it's been and influencer in their lives... and they're immediately labeled vultures. Meanwhile, the majority of people who aren't being labeled "vultures" are the ones who see this as a lane in which they can make a fast buck and do so without having any respect for "the culture". We give them a pass for that ******** behavior since thev've got the correct skin tone... but that stuff isn't right.
