Gate keeping rappers is corny af. Yeah some fans can be cringey but if you don’t want to see more success for your favorite artists you don’t really care about them you only care about yourself.
facts lmao. it’s always them tt nerds that make underground their whole personality trait 😭 let artists grow, most “fans” can be really selfish and inconsiderate.
I feel like undergrounds become more of a genre than actually underground atp. Like yeat, and Ken aren’t “underground” but they tend to attract an “underground” fanbase if you know what I’m saying
ppl jus like 2 say they listen to underground music bc it makes them feel special at this point n they attach it to originally underground ppl like ken but he been up so
@@unforgivefulon god bro mfs be making listening to the “underground” their whole personality n they artists are literally pulling millions of monthly listeners 😭
thank you for this, cause so many people be calling these guys “underground” when their mainstream now. Sure, their sounds are more unique and niche based, but their buzzing now.
Lil uzi said he really misses doing small venues because he felt more connected to his fans. Smaller shows are more intimate and fun for the fan and the artist so I can't blame you for thinking that.
same i got really into yeat few years back but i didnt really fw ken until more recently, its really cool to see em get so big with the sound they have
all of the rappers mentioned definitely aren’t underground anymore but i feel like since we’ve seen them grow and actually enjoy their music, we group them to be underground when they’re not and they always pop up into conversations as well.
im brazilian and i like seeing these underground or mainstream videos and for me is so crazy cuz in Brazil nun of them are even close of being mainstrem its like were living in diferent worlds typa shit
Yeah if we're being honest even artists who people label as "underground" like xaviersobased, hi-c, rich amiri, che, and even lesser known names just are not underground rappers. If you have millions of streams and are selling out small venues you aren't underground. Corny ass term btw I hate saying it
@@user-vv3zu1bo7n nah he been getting flowers lately, one call blew up nd aint nothing is big, he isnt underground anymore he got 800k monthly listeners
it’s crazy cuz their the main stream now the real underground is always gonna between the people of 1k followers too 5K followers on SoundCloud that’s the truth underground especially with those hard core fan bases for them already u get me like these foos on the other hand already been performing at festivals and sh like wtf 😂
Yeat is kinda at the point where he is constantly being attacked and called underground just bc he has sorta lost the underground fan base but still kinda has a cult fan base but the underground fan base is toxic asf and they attacking yeat idk why especially ken fans he needs more respect definitely as he has done all of this without being signed to a bigger artist like carti
ken was underground until AGC, his album last year did like 5k first week, im a huge carti fan and i only discovered ken in february. since his album last year he only dropped like 2 songs so people discovered him but mainly cus of opium growing in general then AGC everyone raved about so a lot of people checked out atleast a couple songs
@@timmy5876na bro u was jus late, ken really blew up off project x hits n stuff off x like mdma and freestyle 2. if u have 1 mil, he was pushing mainstream atp. someone who’s underground is someone like ohsxnta who litteralty has 8k monthly listeners.
Lucki's s*x m*ney d*rugs was AOTY for me imo...Like that album was exactly what I was hoping from Lucki after Flawless Like Me, bro music is free therapy
I just dont wanna see my fav underground artists enter that evil shit....even tho....they wear upside down crosses, pentagrams...keep a dark mysterious demonic persona and image....promote sin....yea nvm
Idk why people don't like to see an underground artist finally make it to the mainstream
ion agree with it but they definitely change as soon as they go up
yeat is the best example of this
@@Trunksarchive they get rich and stop trying. Going mainstreams a good way to see if they care about the music
fame and money changes people
they usually change their sound once they blow up so that's probably why
Gate keeping rappers is corny af. Yeah some fans can be cringey but if you don’t want to see more success for your favorite artists you don’t really care about them you only care about yourself.
Ikr acting like more people aint finna find them
facts lmao. it’s always them tt nerds that make underground their whole personality trait 😭 let artists grow, most “fans” can be really selfish and inconsiderate.
Man fuck the artist growth if the cringe kids get a hold of there music it’s not worth it the growth
@@realestsiennafr it’s like they don’t want these rappers to get money/make it out the hood
@@MrWaffle666 you are the reason why your favourite rappers stay broke
I feel like undergrounds become more of a genre than actually underground atp. Like yeat, and Ken aren’t “underground” but they tend to attract an “underground” fanbase if you know what I’m saying
i get u
ppl jus like 2 say they listen to underground music bc it makes them feel special at this point n they attach it to originally underground ppl like ken but he been up so
@@unforgivefulon god bro mfs be making listening to the “underground” their whole personality n they artists are literally pulling millions of monthly listeners 😭
@@zyde1179 yea fr, if u start saying names like che, sgpwes or slump6s, mfs gon be like "huh?"
Underground is not a genre, you can say it’s a community
It’s kinda sad we had to say goodbye to Ken Carson being an underground artist this year after he dropped a great chaos, I’m happy for his success tho
Now hes just known for the tiktok meme yk the jennifers body intro
@@toniherobrine715nah he been blowing up before that
I feel like that was clipped when he signed lol but I do agree he was put into a new stratosphere of notoriety as of recent which is cool to see
thank you for this, cause so many people be calling these guys “underground” when their mainstream now. Sure, their sounds are more unique and niche based, but their buzzing now.
Kens underground run was def in 2020/2021
only shi i miss abt ken bein underground is his lil shows, the smaller venues were so much better
crazy take
@@timmy5876its not crazy at all u dork
Lil uzi said he really misses doing small venues because he felt more connected to his fans. Smaller shows are more intimate and fun for the fan and the artist so I can't blame you for thinking that.
ive been a ken fan since a little before he dropped x, and im not mad that hes mainstream now
i discovered yeat & ken carson in 2020, happy to see them mainstream.
same i got really into yeat few years back but i didnt really fw ken until more recently, its really cool to see em get so big with the sound they have
the potential SoFaygo and ssgkobe had to be in these spots 2 years ago🥲
all of the rappers mentioned definitely aren’t underground anymore but i feel like since we’ve seen them grow and actually enjoy their music, we group them to be underground when they’re not and they always pop up into conversations as well.
Man I'm so happy and sad that yeat mainstream now
I feel like izaya tiji when he said : I'm so prouda yeat😢
im brazilian and i like seeing these underground or mainstream videos and for me is so crazy cuz in Brazil nun of them are even close of being mainstrem its like were living in diferent worlds typa shit
I'm Brazilian and I agree with you bro, it seems like they are two different worlds, being underground or mainstream here is strange 😂
Yeah if we're being honest even artists who people label as "underground" like xaviersobased, hi-c, rich amiri, che, and even lesser known names just are not underground rappers.

Evb you named except maybe Amiri is def underground
@@user-vv3zu1bo7n Che not underground
@@user-vv3zu1bo7n nah he been getting flowers lately, one call blew up nd aint nothing is big, he isnt underground anymore he got 800k monthly listeners
underground is the name of the community how is it corny
xav and hi-c are absolutely underground lmao
They say Yeat keep on evolvin, how you so steady wit it 🔥
sad how many people weren’t there listening to lucki in even 2019
it’s crazy cuz their the main stream now the real underground is always gonna between the people of 1k followers too 5K followers on SoundCloud that’s the truth underground especially with those hard core fan bases for them already u get me like these foos on the other hand already been performing at festivals and sh like wtf 😂
u could argue ken carson was never underground bro had lil yatchy and a launcey foux ft on his ever 1st tape
Yeat is kinda at the point where he is constantly being attacked and called underground just bc he has sorta lost the underground fan base but still kinda has a cult fan base but the underground fan base is toxic asf and they attacking yeat idk why especially ken fans he needs more respect definitely as he has done all of this without being signed to a bigger artist like carti

nah ken been mainstream since freestyle 2 blew up last year
@@Kariya99 didn’t he have like 1m monthly listeners at the start of this year? that’s not mainstream mate
@@timmy5876na bro u was jus late, ken really blew up off project x hits n stuff off x like mdma and freestyle 2. if u have 1 mil, he was pushing mainstream atp. someone who’s underground is someone like ohsxnta who litteralty has 8k monthly listeners.
@@timmy5876 i assure you ken been mainstream long before agc dropped just look at his shows
@@timmy5876 lmao 1m monthly listeners is not underground bruh
nice vid bro
you should make a vid on Harlow Road he's actually underground
COCHISE WHEN U GOIN MAINSTREAM BOI
Yeat blew up when get busy got popular change my mind 😂
Protect AK Bandamont, at all cost
seeing someone from the underground blow up jus makes it not special to fw them no more dead how i felt w jaydes and ken
how you gon say ken and then leave out lone
Broo everbody knows by now that these rappers arent underground
Who tf is that white haired kid you always show in the thumbnails and profile and shit? That can't actually be you 😂
I be thinking the same lol
I lost my lil Yeat and my ken :(
Lucki's s*x m*ney d*rugs was AOTY for me imo...Like that album was exactly what I was hoping from Lucki after Flawless Like Me, bro music is free therapy
Fun Fact: Every rapper that blows up isn’t underground anymore.
I just dont wanna see my fav underground artists enter that evil shit....even tho....they wear upside down crosses, pentagrams...keep a dark mysterious demonic persona and image....promote sin....yea nvm
underground music literally revolves around drugs,gun/gang violence, and fkin hos underground itself is alrdy sinful lol
Ken also got a lebron cosign
Fearless????
Change your pfp
i'd def put odetari in this list aswell bro went mainstream super fast
daddy
yeat year
lucki not independent
empire is basically indpeendetn, its disturbiont he owns like 90% of his music
@@fash1r300cap that was 2022 . Btw change your pfp
#fash1r300
every reason for ken carson is true except the carti cosign. no shit carti would cosign a rapper in his own fucking label
0:37 bro cant box himself to pop chug jug bro wtf u playing like classic controler
Free lucki
only lucki
3:31 ?? xd
my friend put me on to yeat just days before he put out money so big
Ok
i’m acc shocked that msb of all songs helped him get popular 😭 balenci feet should’ve skyrocketed his career imo
@@realestsiennai remember that song, can’t believe it got taken down 😭
@@prodbxrii it’s still up on yt & i’m pretty sure it’s still on spotify😭
Yeat pretty underground still only the suburban white guys are more intune than the urban fr
White, black, Hispanic, Asian all count as rap fans, rap fans aren’t only urban anymore
Bro 55k is underground?next project selling more and you still say that
HE HAS A SONG WITH F*CKING DRAKE WHAT DO YOU NIGGAS NOT UNDERSTAND
