I didn't think people was actually taking him seriously...
They are all under 21
They don't he's heavily promoted I doubt he's gonna rap in 5 years he gonna be working with his father in the Disney company
they didnt
most people just said that kids funny and the songs sound fire
They dont but he makes more money then most hood rappers lmao
XXL put him in the Freshman class and he's wracking up legitimate artist numbers.
growing up rich and being a rapper is the plot of Malibu's Most Wanted
Mabu's most wanted
Edit: I'm sorry
honestly i thought thats where he got he name from.... lil mabu aka lil malubu most wanted lol
Easy money for him . While lil Nas x wasn't accepted by country fans . Shit crazy
Hold up take the "li" and throw it in the front its damn near malibu just mixed up with an extra "L" thrown in this kid might be a genius lmfao
Spend money, Easy money. He's having such a privileged career. Using every white man tactic to take over Black people shit again.
This is literally Timothy Chalamet's character from SNL come to life(except in on the joke)...."Dad I don't like it here, everyones super mean."
THATS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING 💀😭
Cling cling cling man you capping
DRIP SPLASH WATER DRIP DRIP SPLASH WATER
The way I thought he was Danny Gonzalez who decided to pursue an actual rap career despite the fact that they don't sound alike at all 😂😂
I thought I was the only one who noticed the similarities in the way they look😂
Daniel Hernández you mean
My next up recommended is Danny's new video lol
you mean drew gooden
Bye 💀💀💀💀
So, I used to go to the school he went to (Emory). I transferred out a few months before he came. My friends who still go there (seniors now) tell me that he's just a "regular kid" and people often bother him in the cafeteria although he tries to separate his school life from his career. He doesn't find it amusing when people come up and ask him about it. Never heard a bad thing about him from on campus.
I know folks at Emory too and it seems like Mabu only attended Emory because ATL is a hip hop hub. Mabu could've easily gone to a prestigious university up north, but chose to go to school in Atlanta
@@indecisive.325y’all tweaking lol
Interesting. I never thought about that before but you're so right.@@indecisive.325
why doesnt he drop out lol
His fault ,what a goofy😂😂 make cap rap and expect to be chill
I hate the way that he’s profiting off of a dangerous lifestyle that people actually live without fearing for his life at all. He can go home every night with no fear while the people actually doing the shit he talks about have to worry about whether or not they gon see the next day
He pays them so it's okay to make money off of their ignorance
Mabu is actually from the hood
Dude Calm Down It's Not That Deep, Everyone does That As Long as he ain't hurting anyone who cares
@@Used_condoms906he literally grew up in a multi-million dollar mansion wym 😭
Fr😂
Funeral business, NY carry permit... His dad is mafia
I think so too
@@Snufz760 exactly
😂😂
oh damn lol. whole other type of street to have cred on, but he can't even talk about it. that'd be a crazy life to live
I literally thought the same thing immediately lol
Wow i like the way how you talk about people. There's no judging, nudging and no framing. A nice & clean documentary. Big up!
The fact he was a rich white kid before all of this is just so funny to me
Bro a lot of black rappers lied aswell. Biggie smells mother after he died showed he went to private schools and had a nice upper middle class upbringing, lil Tecca wasn’t about that life, YBN nahmir wasn’t about that life.
Most rap fans are middle class white kids
@@LilEshu808mabu never lied about it tho
@@IshaanjitThe kids whole persona is ridiculous.
It's not funny. It's pathetic, shameful, disgusting, ignorant, stupid, racist and lame.
“Deportation… My name is Luis.” 😂
😂😂😂
I cant lie, shits legendary
he told him "you sound very black" lol
Lowest common denominator entertainment
It's crazy how many people this kid connected with back when he was doing this marketing thing. I have a couple friends who were also reached out to by Mabu for this marketing stuff. They never responded.
I ended up responding and bro helped me a lil forsure. we still locked in
Lil mabu grows up in a "friendly neighborhood!"
So funny man
@@StunningIceBoxwhat you so mad for little dude?
I wasn't being sarcastic
@@StunningIceBox calm down, son.
@@SaccoMabowleshe said he wasn’t being sarcastic💀
I still think about Slim Jesus. He was open and honest in his first Vlad interview and from my memory it was a similar story Drake said like rapping about what's going on in the hood while not being there (Drake said he would only go to the hood to meet friends) Also just a year or two later you'd have people like Lil Tecca and a lot of new 'Drill' or gangster rap. I feel like Drill time was a good song but he also didn't help himself by hanging up om Birdman
He’s doing what most rappers do, he’s just being honest about it
yea but they're black and grew up poor, not the same lol
Not really tho look how many rappers get locked up or die because of street shit
Nah a lot of them be lying to@@wizsdm
They can't gatekeep a genre. Plus, he's not saying he did go through it @wisdom7981
Lmfao you think alot of these rappers be telling the truth? 😂😂😂😂
Is it just me or does mabu look like loki from mcu?💀💀
Edit: TY for all these likes!!!
I can’t unsee it now cuz he could DEF pass for a young/flashback version of Loki 😂
Also looks like Tom Holland 😂
Its just you
Looks like Loki had a baby with Tom Holland, or Timothy Chalamet got pregnant with Nicolas Cage.
😂
The father supposedly was beat up at a wake in 2016 and left with a concussion. But seriously sounds like the kid has something behind him other than just money. Not my kinda music, but hope he keeps succeeding at life.
Lil Mabu is rlly smart, that’s obvious, he knew what he was doing.
tbh i get it. this guy is less about the music and more so just a entertainer as a whole, the music just comes with it as part of the character. one day he could also make some really good sht and solidify himself as a good artist, but he doesnt necessarily need to. smart tactics overall, but being rich enough to do all of this in the first place definitely helped a lot ;d
“…so i condemn you for that”. Lol… Woops.
I’m a millennial. Unlike us, I noticed Gen Z doesn’t care if you’re a fake gangster, or have ghost writers or rental cars and mansions. They will continue to like you if you keep acting, and cancel you when sick of you.
Well said
"unlike us". Speak for an entire generation and imply that you have some more enlightened principles or something. cringe
@@erikgriswold5273 I didn’t mean to offend you. You can correct me without insulting me.
Edit: I believe I heard something similar from Anthony Fantano. Perhaps I should rephrase from “like us” to “ Millennials”
Third edit:
Ok nvm. I didn’t offend you you’re just an asshole. I just visited your page. You videoed a woman working out without her knowing making fun of her. And posted it on the internet for all to see. Your just like being contrary you’re not actually offended.
They only cancel you if you make the gays upset
his fans are all 12 so that’s gen alpha. it’s also nothing to do with cancel culture lmao it’s just his fans don’t care because they are 12 year old white kids themselves. stop looking for things to complain about that don’t exist
Mabu is entertaining but I feel like rappers like him just don't last long after their momentum. The "white boy trend" gets boring after a while but we'll see how far this one goes 😂
Yeah they don’t last. Remember slim Jesus
@@Corvy952 exactly what I mean 💯
Tbf I think he has some bangers but if it wasnt for thus video i would've forgotten about him
Yea ok bro
Disagree. hes poping off and been for years
Lift and help each other out stip the divide ! I love seeing pepple from different walks of like together making art for the workd RESPECT!!
Mabu is gonna do what he does because hes a opertunist, however the rappers who have embraced him simply for internet clout are the biggest problem.
Yeah it's a shame
yeah, he's an opertunist
Lil tech: you don't have to be gangsta to rap.
honestly i got a ton of respect for mabu. being able to balance music, school and an online image is a hard thing to do.
And other words lil mabu is the kid rock this generation
fantastic video mister bawlz. love the haircut btw
thanks!
Idc if Mabu isn’t about what he raps about. His shit is lowkey 🔥🔥
I honestly thought his persona was satire. I just assumed it was comedy. Maybe he's paying folks to keep it friendly?
Now we wait for the inevitable genre switch up after he gets bored playing rapper like many others like him..
“You sound very black” 😂😂😂
matthew spherical back at it again!!!!!!!!!!!
He went from a drill artist to making masterpieces like “oppy day”, truly inspirational
By definition of the term “industry plant” he fits the imagery to a T yet no one says anything because he’s good at marketing his career
By definition? What industry support did he have? He's independent. I think you don't understand the definition yet you chose to make your statement how you did. Insane
You don't know how what industry plant mean. The kid is 100% funding his own music. The Industry isn't even involved in this. So how is he an industry plant when he ain't doing nothing with the industry?? Smh
@@erikgriswold5273LMFAOOOO.
i remember seeing him on a short before he got real famous😪🤣
JUST TO REMIND ME AGAIN HOW UNFAIR A LIFE COULD BE, THANKS MABU
His marketability is undeniable. He knows how to grow an audience and I think that’s the point. H8 him or love him, he is definitely strategic.
Whenever I hear this background song i always know the videos gonna be a banger
Why does anyone listen to this persons music.
Because some people like it
Because the music is fun nothing more
im so tired of people saying he's a genius for what he's doing as if so many people haven't done the same. They're so ignorant for perpetuating this dumb ass behavior.
Usually I like this dudes videos but this whole vid just seemed kinda meat ridingish
ong, it's the tv trope "hood/hood-acting white kid" modernized for the internet
I don't know how anyone from New York rocks with this guy
@@c0rxpseb0i13 got a shout out from Mabu and started glazing hard.
@@DefNotMyBurner most likely or mabu bought this video
Hard to believe this dude really rocks with mabu
Yup, Remeber he came in as "Lil Malibu"!!!
Not going to lie, I love “teach me how to drill”
Its actually pathetic that in NY its rare to be able to have a carry permit
This is probably one of the only times I agree with the "it's only cool because he is white" rap fans.
W Ballzack 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Regardless how you feel about the kid, you gotta respect his hustle. Boy cooked up a decent career using the right ingredients. He's smart, talented, & despite how he comes across, (mad) mature for his age when you think of how he executed everything, leaning into his privilege & leveraging what he does have to get what he wants. Not to mention he's funny af and the music slaps hard... That's a winning combo any day of the week.
And I think that's the reason big names in the business, both front facing & behind the scenes, rock w him.. they recognize the hard work/hustle & respect the grind. Plus, there's something hypocritical about hood culture hating the guy just because of what he was born into. Almost poetic how he doing the same thing as real street rappers, but from the opposite end of the spectrum, if that makes sense..
P.S. I think the BS w/ ChriseanRock was because now he can use the marketing/virality he provides as payment aside from money, which he gave her on that track. And value = value at the end of the day, another sign of his A1 business mindset. (She just mad now 😂)
you should make a vid about the nu-horror core/ torture core scene
torture core sounds scary
@mattyballz it's like horror core memphis rap turned up to 1000, you should check out Craig scissor hands new album
three six mafia, tommy wright iii, tech n9ne, lil ugly mane!
@raven06 too bad these guys already did that. brotha lynch hung, icp, twiztid, Twisted insane, lurch, and spice 1
@@helldog63 torture core is still very different from this
No matter our background we can do anything.
Grew up poor you can become a doctor, it’s just you, that’s holding yourself back.
Mabu, may have not grew with that background, but he can do anything he wants. Anyone can.
yea but being a doctor is a lot harder than being a mabu hahhaha come on bruh
@@papervws it’s an example bruh.
ik im just saying.. being rich and becoming mabu is a whole lot easier than being poor and becoming a doctor, if someone invests money in their career and goes hard on the gimmicks theyll probably get famous, its not just ourselves holding us back.@@1738..
Mabu's Most Wanted
Lil pampers putting gushers in lean😂 please call cps
Danny Gonzalez out here trynna be the drill game Bruce Wayne
Mabu is the drill version of Bo Burnham.
He essentially took the lil dicky route but made mid music instead of bad music
I don’t care how much money he’s making. I wouldn’t want to be him, or have his career.
Why so many hate ? He is kid ,really very clever. I love Mabu
Tbh if you can’t tell it’s all an act and persona then that’s on you. I like his sense of humor and sarcasm…😂
This has nothing to do with humor. He's mocking a dangerous lifestyle that is not a fun "choice" for most of the young men of color who live it. He's making a mockery of an entire culture because ignorant whites think black people are just violent and criminal. It's shameful, pathetic, and above all disgusting. L
Matty is absolutely killing it with the content lately! 🔥
Let’s be real no one thought he was from the streets
He looks like Timonthee Chalmet
U lowkey glazing his sausage
Nobody actually did think he was a gangsta
lil Mabu -> LilMabu -> Malibu -> Mali-bootay --> B-Rad G
This video is basically Malibus Most Wanted in RL.
Matthew Delucas popping up talking about “ traffic traffic felling kinda carsick “
Let's see how long he will last within the lifestyle he chose, there's nothing Real about being FAKE and calling yourself a Gangster or in any Gang....I can't wait to see him cap out ,🙏
Mabu is a Rapper/Entertainer!!!!!
And he says it, I’m from NYC and I respect that at least he’s being honest about his fake lifestyle .
All these other rappers that you guys think they are ganat -only because they come from a particular neighborhood .
90% are as soft as an ice cream cone.
Keep entertaining Mabu respect✊🏽
P.S.
Matyballz you dropped his Addy to his parents and other family homes - the definition of dry snitching!!!
Stop drinking that Hatorade matyballz!!!!
😂😂😂
Everyone pays for features. Every single one of them. Theres no “free collabs” unless both ppl are stupid unknown.
Im an artist i follow upcoming artists on insta since 2016 every one i see i known this kid since he was barely a teen and he BEEN tryna go viral doing some controversial shit
I think he is funny and makin smart moves with the privileges and personality that he has. People shouldn't take everything so negatively and seriously. His music is entertaining imo and I'm pretty sure at this point he has a good relationships with ppl he works with. It is what it is. Besides industry plant is a weird term considering a lot of musicians in different genres where "found" or scouted whether that was a club joint, small self-funded concerts, tv shows, personal connections, etc. for YEARS. It's not like these ppl come out of thin air!!!! It's a normal practice I promise. Luckily, you are able to make moves on your own without a label (if that is what you want or don't need) and social media is easy for scouting. It is what it is. We always have to find some negative connotation...
who the fuck is giving this kid plays though? i don't think i've ever seen anyone who's ever claimed to listen to this dude.
Fr
that's the thing, people like this don't have a lot of real fans. two thirds of his views are probably people like us who wanna react to the shock of it
Reactors are doing his music. Just type in Lil Mabu music reaction they all pop up
Hes not lying about his roots
1 min gang
He should get ice jj-fish as his background singer 😮
Backpack full of rulers
My problem is when he dropped that song with that one rapper, it was on the front page of the UA-cam explore feed, and the song was about how to commit murder. Why is the algorithm front paging this song to the masses!?!??
Bc it’s a white kid saying it
Because white people can do whatever they want with zero consequences. Classic double standard. Pathetic.
$$$$
Because it’s controversial and controversial content gets views
@@dimitrosg yeah not like 90/100 rappers that rap about murder is black
must be because hes white
Man these rappers be shuckin n jiving for a check😂🤣🤣
shuckin n jiving? wtf
He’s just showing black people what he thinks of them without actually showing he’s racist
It's called stereotype not racist. Learn the difference
mabo is one of the smartest mf’s in the game
I don't believe he even has 600 monthly listeners. You can buy fake views, followers and stats on every social media platform. I take one look at this kid and know more about him than he knows about himself. His family probably transfers 15k-25k to his bank account every week. I've seen other kids like him in NYC. Not hating at all and good for him but he'd get a lot more respect from the people he's trying to impress if he kept it real. First step, lose the hair. It makes you look exactly like what you're pretending not to be.
-Magnum Tostarelli
Nah my gf told me hes hella popular with the middle schoolers
He has 8 murder charges
Mabu didn’t have to do all this fake gangster bs to make it big, he could’ve tailored his image to be literally anything but instead he chose to cosplay poverty and gang violence. The idea of a rich kid using his money to buy an image of poverty to look “hard” is embarrassing af and he should’ve just stuck to whatever kind of music he was making before. I just saw a video of him walking around with a 9 year old “rapper” in a Chicago hood with a shit ton of security and he was getting popped at. It’s crazy. He got to visit the hood and play around a little bit just to go back to his rich life at the end of the day and it irks me so bad bruh.
He has never pretended to be poor. Part of his shtick is that he is in private school
Except Mabu never pretended to be poor
@@nomanejane5766 I never said he pretended to be poor I said that he is using the aesthetic of poverty to make a profit. Not the same thing.
Even worse when a college like him would reject someone with the background that he cosplays as. Sad.
Crushing it again, Mr. Ballz, ca-can I call you Mr. Ballz? 😮
That’s acceptable. Thank you Woozy.0
Boy jacked everythint he got from slim jesus pay respect
It's all about acting crazy when you're not and then turning crazy from it. Rap is dead.
He will grow out of this and be embarrassed by it eventually
Yeah because most people don't aspire to be from the hood.
Convoluted way to say he bought his way into the rap game
Wassup ballz
yo
nobody cares but me and lil mabu have the same exact birthday and were born in the same city
Lil mabu idc if hes real or not he got some bangers. I’ve always felt like if i like it the image is secondary.
LOL Deportation meme comes from him 😭😭😭
Good evening Mr Ballz
he meat rides himself so much
let’s go bro 🎉
Matty got a fresh cut
How did rappers allow this to happen , this is crazy
Because most of them are fake too.
@@hansmemling2311fivio isnt fake
The first white boy to take a trip to the hood and make it out.
Everyone knows that rappers PAY for features. Kid did his thing and you gotta respect that. Anyone can make any type of music now and I see it all the time on soundcloud
So Young Mabu is basically like a white Tariq Saint Patrick? 🤣
Still love his music tho
yuno miles video???
It's really bad sign that I forgot about this kid until this video.
The way these influencers are promoting the neonatal rapper is so… soooo sad.
