@megamanxhunter yeah one of the biggest hits of the decade ruined his career idk about that. Regular people didn't care (or even know of, if you're like me) about whatever controversy that song caused
Never understood why Chance hasn't dropped since The Big Day.... you'd think he'd want to bounce back asap but it's now almost 4 years with nothing new
On the Roddy Rich one I can actually empathize a lot. Im also not a social media person, but I want to make music. So I understand how going from having next to no interaction with internet people to having thousands to even millions of interactions everytime you go online can be overwhelming for anyone.
@@sarahg1002hiding your identity doesn’t do shit. Your ego as an artist is one of the things normal people wouldn’t understand. I’m going to make great albums but I’ll be sure to remember that fame can fuck you up and make u lose your artistic mind if it gets the better of you.

It says a lot about the current state of the music industry when 2 years in between albums is considered too long, because that pretty much the average album cycle.
That's in rap remember. Rock has 2+ year cycles and no one's bothering them for it. Generally when there's a shorter wait, it's even a bit of a red flag
That type of shit is like regular Kanye. Also Donda 2 did at least fuck with his career, but then he went the bad german route so we'll never know what part of it is Donda 2 alone
Ye has been doing career ending shit for years now (not really related to music tho) and he's still going strong. At this point I believe that man's career will only end when he's six feet under. He could release the worst album we've ever listened to and still be famous
One more thing regarding the controversies around "Blurred Lines." The song was criticized for being a rip off of Marvin Gaye’s 1977 hit “Got to Give It Up.” And Gaye's estate went on to file a copyright infringement lawsuit against Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams that ended in a $5M judgment in the estate's favor.
The gayes sue everybody who they think even remotely used their music. They may have gotten 5m but they wanted 100% of all profits from the song so they kinda won i guess but not really.
@@theprincessnay im not saying it was or wasnt, just giving more context, winning 5m’s when u were lookin for 100% just gives more context, most of the time when the gayes estate sues someone they looking to own 100% of that other song and its earnings
Roddy is right, his debut album set a precedent in rap that wasn’t there from a male rapper yet because of the overnight success of tiktok. How many artists selling 100k on there debut? It was the fans who overhyped his career and had unrealistic expectations.Roddy is still a successful artist who releases regularly (every 2-4 years)
Roddy career reminds me similar to Megan trainor. Both had huge debut albums and their songs were all over radio for an entire whole year(especially Megan in 2015. Then they both dropped a follow up album that flopped. Roddy mistake was not capitalising on the success immediately by relating more songs and actually hyping or promoting his second album like how Travis did. He ruined it by dropping it last minute and thinking it can be bigger than his first. For that you gotta be a interesting artist and popular to do that
@@nordickdaddy9311 the crazy thing about roddy is he did everything right in terms of how a artist should organically build themselves up and what was more impressive is he was the only comption guy to get big without the dr dre co sign. He really fumbled bad and I also think nipsey passing away atleast a small part of it def affected how he could have branded his career
@@kikelomohassan7638seven years later he was accused of groping the actress from the Blurred Lines video, so his behavior was known and she finally had enough to dump him
The Big Day is well over an hour long and has some of the worst bars ever written. It was just proof that Chance was so surrounded by yes men at that point that no one said to him "bro this is total shit" to a single song
@@THICCTHICCTHICCthe problem is that he was surrounded by yes men because he only wanted to be surrounded by them. Anyway who wasn't got cut off by.the sounds of it
Chance the Rapper has had the most humorous fall off I've ever seen. It's not like he lost all of his loot either; he's just a married guy that made a bad album and betrayed his best friend. Paula is like some weird interpretation of Icarus by Sam Levinson. Cheating. Questionable songs about consent. Emotional manipulation. Creepy videos. Just the worst. Keep to the awesome work Matty!
Chance made a big mistake by firing Pat. He was surrounded by too many yes men and hangers on who weren't telling him the truth about the quality of his music.
@@Train2Bone Chance is literally one of the most respectable rappers, he openly talks about mental health, being yourself, not objectifying women, and just overall being a really moral dude... literally the worst thing he has ever done was call himself a "slap-happy fa**ot slapper" and when his own brother cam out of the closet he apologized...in his own words(from his album about jesus ffs) "They never seen a rapper practice modesty I never practice, I only perform"
As someone who was a huge fan of Chance when Acid Rap and Coloring Book came out, I really do hope he has a come back. He had real talent and genuine good singing. I really hope he turns around quickly with his next album.
Bit of a rant but I think that we're more aware of mental illness than ever but still a celebrity cannot have a mental illness because they have a "platform"
Then we have that guy with tourettes or whatever he had that wasnt able to perform on stage at one point during a concert so the audience sang the song for him.
I feel like the problem is deeper. Plenty of artists release shitty music and their label pushes it so hard that it's deemed "successful". I feel like when stuff like this happens, it's because the industry has rejected them and wont support them anymore, not regular people/fans
Todd in the shadows is a youtube original. Been on this platform from the beginning. The fact people are still discovering him is a very good thing 🍜🍜🍜
I remember when xxl was a huge deal cuz it usually only had maybe one or two people who had already had a song or two blow up. Now it’s just people who are already popular and then maybe 3 people that are new
@@aaronsanders4122 yea i think they get popular off a hit and get enough votes then cant sustain the success rather than before where a lot of the artists who got voted in built up a sizeable fanbase prior
Regardless of what happened Chance is like a local hero here in Chicago. Dude is always doing something in the community and helping out. I wouldn't be surprised if in 10 years he's running for mayor. I was there at his 10-Day listening party on some pure luck shit, didn't even know who the hell bro was I was just tagging along with a friend. Seeing him go from that to winning grammys and making music with another Chicago legend Kanye is just crazy. I think he'll recover with his next big project.
Tbf roddy is still a solid rapper, just feels like the hunger and energy is lost, but he still got the occasional bangers and maybe he could top pemfba
If an artist no longer has hunger or energy for his music it's going to show, and people will reject it, as they rightfully should imo. Once you lose the passion for your work it's time to stop and re-think your life.
I blame the people for the hate that Roddy Rich receives. His new music is still pretty good it’s just that everyone wants another Box but that was a once in a lifetime thing. I feel so bad for him because he doesn’t deserve any of the hate.
man i remember going to Chance’s family matters tour in 15 and it was such an insane experience it was also my first time seeing a Metro Boomin set live. was so excited for Big Day and the following tour but that album was so disappointing especially as a follow up to Coloring Book
I was really young when Chance became the first rapper to win a Grammy without selling physical copies of his music, like middle school prolly. I had no idea what that meant at that time tbh but dude was all people talked about cuz of that. Kinda miss when Chance was on top cuz his music to me never seemed anything but happy. Plus the kit Kat commercials I feel like he was on?
The fact that chance, if he is indeed such a pure soul, got booed out of music for liking his wife too much while there are literal apists and apists apologists getting praise and recognition for farting is beyond me.
Just because someone is making positive music doesn't automatically seem it good. If the worst singer/songwriter in the world drops a gospel album dedicated to God, doesn't make it good. J Cole makes positive music but he also makes great music. You can't put a bad album with a positive message up against the worst type of humans, it's a bad comparison & very extremist
@@WhyYouMadBoithey are trying not to get their acct reported for saying no no words lol ya know in our free country with free speech we don't have? 😂 They are referring to R@piSTs and R@pE apologists Is that better?
that's what's wrong with the "fans" today. If it's not a top 5 album of the year in the charts everyone just says is whack. Artists can't just make music anymore, they gotta please the masses
Great video once again Matty 🔥Personally I would love to see a video on XXL I sometimes wonder to myself where it all went wrong 😔 as a kid I found myself looking forward to the XXL Freshmen but these days I just check back in to see how far from grace they've fallen It's sad actually
Honestly, you don’t need to be putting out albums every year as an artist… it’s not manageable. Hip-hop and pop music in general is so fickle that attention spans are shorter than ever. Problem is, there’s so many clones, or one dimensional talents, it’s hard to keep things fresh, or evolve with the times. That said, Kanye is a fucking beast and a goddamn outlier.
Todd does make good content. Jealous you just discovered him, with so many videos of his to watch. His Fun Style trainwreckords video is one of my favs.
@mattyballz the one with scatman John is heartwarming af. Pretty much all the one hit wonderland and Trainwreckords are awesome. Pretty much all his videos are worth a watch, and there are alot of them. Not sure if you're familiar with mic the snare. He's got great music related content also. Also, shout out Dignan, Riley and DJ Grant at hivemind. Gotta love them.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking cause the “evolution of Robin thick” was and is considered he best work and that has “lost without you” on it back in 06.
I'm glad Roddy rich is planning to follow up his second album. It's good he is not being like chance the rapper and letting this bad album be his last entry.
I subscribing only because I am impressed with your acknowledgement of other UA-cam producers. So many people in effect steal the ideas and observations of others. You are genuine and should be proud of yourself.
Dude, I watch your vids and end up in a rabbithole of music without fail. Thank you for your wonderful source mentioning, dude. It's led to some really fun content.
Think about it like this, Thicke ain't really big outside the R&B space. The guy making this video is white, not a slight against him but I doubt he grew up listening to the same radio stations as black folks. Cause R&B stations be bumping “Lost Without U” and “Morning Sun.” I've had to explain to a lot of people who the Fugees are beyond “Killing me softly” and who Jazmine Sullivan is beyond “Knock your Windows”
When it comes to making albums or songs about a loved one or an ex normally if you make one song and it doesn't do well you can still come back from pretty easily but if you make an entire album with multiple songs it's significantly harder to come back from as you can see with what happened with Robin Thicke and Chance the Rapper
Cause Taylor reputation and public image is built in a pathetic image of feminism mixed with poor accountability choices for the men she chose to be with as well as inspiring a angry rebellious generation go women who wanna be hoes or boss bitches than wives. The difference is her music is kind of enjoyable enough people wanna hear. Drake and even future makes songs about exes it’s all about marketing and how you try and filter it
It's more about how you do it and why you do it. Robin Thicke's Paula failed because it's corny and it really is more about robin getting his wife back rather than him making good music or expressing himself. Converge's Jane Doe and You Failed me are about a very specific relationship that ended badly for Jacob Bannon. The albums talk about more on how expectations, emotional immaturity and inexperience led to turmoil and destruction in romantic relationships. It's self introspection during a very painful moment and the music's aggressiveness plays out in it's favor. You can also make more angsty and corny albums about unlove and straight up hatred about your ex loved one if you are aware enough, tho. Type o Negative's Slow Deep and Hard and The Origin of The Feces are basically Peter Steele whining and complaining about his unfaithful ex girlfriend and how he wants to kill himself while calling her misogynistic slurs. But you know what? The lyrics and songwriting are full of irony and self deprecation so it never comes out as needy or "creepy" (one of the stupidest labels out there) as Thicke's Paula.
Tbh The Big Day was t bad I still listen to songs from it every now and then, it was just a personal album for his wife, and it wasn’t what fans were expecting, it’s similar to the reaction Kanye got for DONDA because it was a personal album to his mom
The shooutout to ToddInTheShadows was unexpected but made me smile tbh. Todd was my first music commentary related channel that i ever really got into and your channel is the second tbh
The Big Day was awful, but I'm willing to pretend it didn't happen if Chance drops an album on par with Acid Rap/Coloring Book next. Yah Know is a really enjoyable listen imo
Meh that’s a shit attitude. If you don’t like it you don’t like it but you ALREADY HAVE Acid Rap and Coloring Book so you should just be great fun for the amazing music the man put out and you should have nothing but respect for a man coming from nothing working hard succeeding and then taking the time to be a father and enjoy his life. If you respected chance on the come up then you should respect him enjoying the good life right now. If he never made another song I’d still be a fan for life 👌🏼
THANK YOU for talking about “Lost Without You”. That song went crazy, everybody always talks about blurred lines (which was a huge hit don’t get me wrong) but I saw a lot of 106 & Park growing up and that song was on the top ten like almost every week at one point
Chance is really good everyone has that one bad project and he has a very good chance(pun intended) to come back and blow the top of the music industry
A lot of rappers don't have that same hunger after their first album. The hunger, passion and talent is what drives artists to make great music, in my opinion and when the hunger the drive and aren't there and any other negative aspects that's when the music stop being amazing, in my opinion.
Someone needs to get Todd this list cause he has his trainwreckords series and not only it’s informative but hilarious cause holy there’s a ton of artist that drop a hilarious awful album that basically destroy them
I like you said man I remember when Chance try blame his manager who also been with him since day 1 from his first mix tap for his album flop but his manager expose him, show that manager show text message and other stuff that he told Chance don't do this album multiple times and but Chance wasn't having it and still release it and what worst when fans hate it, Chance even attack fans online call them hater and alot people said he didn't list to his manager cause he was on his high horse and thought his fans was going eat it up but they didn't and his producer sue him cause Chance didn't want pay him after it flop
I am not a christian at all but I loved a lot of songs on The big day. Chance's albums are always an acquired taste. I didn't like it at first but there are really good tracks on there and vibey and lit dance songs. It's just focused on monogamy instead of hoes and money so I understand why it never was accepted by the mainstream. Sun come down, 5 year plan, Do you remember, are my personal favorites. Wholesomeness isn't marketable but it doesn't mean it's inauthentic. Idk loved it personally
Chance The Rapper and Robin Thicke should make a really solid album together called, "I Love My Wife, I Love My Ex" their careers will come back stronger than before.
Chance the rapper: I love my Wife
Robin Thicke: I still love my ex-wife
😂
They should collab
@@marcosmohamed3046 finna be "I love my wife and you don't got one"
The point is men don't get it until it's too late lol
Now we just need "I will love my future wife" and we'll have past, present, and future Wife Guy Flops.
Point taken. Don't write an album about your wife or ex-wife
Also: arguing with fans on twitter is NOT the move. Be better than that
I don't think that album ruined Robin Thicke's career. In hindsight, "Blurred Lines" did that.

J Cole makes positive music but he also makes great music. You can't put a bad album with a positive message up against the worst type of humans, it's a bad comparison & very extremist
The hell is a apist and apist apologists??
@@WhyYouMadBoithey are trying not to get their acct reported for saying no no words lol ya know in our free country with free speech we don't have? 😂
They are referring to
R@piSTs and R@pE apologists
Is that better?
Love your grind, brotha!!! Keep up the good work, mane!!! 💯 Much love!!!
that's what's wrong with the "fans" today. If it's not a top 5 album of the year in the charts everyone just says is whack. Artists can't just make music anymore, they gotta please the masses
todays artists can't make music period that's why they suck
@@pegallen6983 Are you a musician?
@@tolldoll1007 Why yes I am thank you for asking!
Great video once again Matty 🔥Personally I would love to see a video on XXL
I sometimes wonder to myself where it all went wrong 😔 as a kid I found myself looking forward to the XXL Freshmen but these days I just check back in to see how far from grace they've fallen
It's sad actually
dangg
Honestly, you don’t need to be putting out albums every year as an artist… it’s not manageable. Hip-hop and pop music in general is so fickle that attention spans are shorter than ever. Problem is, there’s so many clones, or one dimensional talents, it’s hard to keep things fresh, or evolve with the times. That said, Kanye is a fucking beast and a goddamn outlier.
Todd does make good content. Jealous you just discovered him, with so many videos of his to watch. His Fun Style trainwreckords video is one of my favs.
really enjoyed what i saw so far, feel free to recommend some good ones!
@mattyballz the one with scatman John is heartwarming af. Pretty much all the one hit wonderland and Trainwreckords are awesome. Pretty much all his videos are worth a watch, and there are alot of them. Not sure if you're familiar with mic the snare. He's got great music related content also. Also, shout out Dignan, Riley and DJ Grant at hivemind. Gotta love them.
In Robin Thicke’s defense his first hit and bit of success was in 2006 so he was already past his “time” by 2013
Yeah that’s what I was thinking cause the “evolution of Robin thick” was and is considered he best work and that has “lost without you” on it back in 06.
I'm glad Roddy rich is planning to follow up his second album. It's good he is not being like chance the rapper and letting this bad album be his last entry.
"I love my wiiiife AAAH" 💀💀💀 that screech kills me
10:57 the fact that y'all thought Roddy Richh Second album was trash says a lot we live in a pound town/ ice spice society
Exactly!! Shit sad out here
I don't even know who he is, or Ice Spice 🤷🏾♀️
I subscribing only because I am impressed with your acknowledgement of other UA-cam producers. So many people in effect steal the ideas and observations of others. You are genuine and should be proud of yourself.
Dude, I watch your vids and end up in a rabbithole of music without fail. Thank you for your wonderful source mentioning, dude. It's led to some really fun content.
It’s so sweet how you share about creators who provided specific influence for your videos. A true gentleman and professional.
Gotta be crazy to think Robin Thicke is just famous for blurred lines😭
Think about it like this, Thicke ain't really big outside the R&B space. The guy making this video is white, not a slight against him but I doubt he grew up listening to the same radio stations as black folks. Cause R&B stations be bumping “Lost Without U” and “Morning Sun.” I've had to explain to a lot of people who the Fugees are beyond “Killing me softly” and who Jazmine Sullivan is beyond “Knock your Windows”
When it comes to making albums or songs about a loved one or an ex normally if you make one song and it doesn't do well you can still come back from pretty easily but if you make an entire album with multiple songs it's significantly harder to come back from as you can see with what happened with Robin Thicke and Chance the Rapper
It works for Taylor Swift though
@@sarahg1002 truuue
Cause Taylor reputation and public image is built in a pathetic image of feminism mixed with poor accountability choices for the men she chose to be with as well as inspiring a angry rebellious generation go women who wanna be hoes or boss bitches than wives. The difference is her music is kind of enjoyable enough people wanna hear. Drake and even future makes songs about exes it’s all about marketing and how you try and filter it
It's more about how you do it and why you do it. Robin Thicke's Paula failed because it's corny and it really is more about robin getting his wife back rather than him making good music or expressing himself. Converge's Jane Doe and You Failed me are about a very specific relationship that ended badly for Jacob Bannon. The albums talk about more on how expectations, emotional immaturity and inexperience led to turmoil and destruction in romantic relationships. It's self introspection during a very painful moment and the music's aggressiveness plays out in it's favor. You can also make more angsty and corny albums about unlove and straight up hatred about your ex loved one if you are aware enough, tho. Type o Negative's Slow Deep and Hard and The Origin of The Feces are basically Peter Steele whining and complaining about his unfaithful ex girlfriend and how he wants to kill himself while calling her misogynistic slurs. But you know what? The lyrics and songwriting are full of irony and self deprecation so it never comes out as needy or "creepy" (one of the stupidest labels out there) as Thicke's Paula.
The highlight of Nahmirs career was beefing with Mattyballz
Please do the XXL video!!! I used to get so hype for those, their fall off was insanely disappointing
Still wishing for Chance to release his country version of "It's hot in here". Not even a country fan but that was super good.
An XXL decline video would be lit. Definitely want that one 🙏
Keep up the good work, man!
The video about the XXL freshman sounds like a great idea. I’d love to see that video
Tbh The Big Day was t bad I still listen to songs from it every now and then, it was just a personal album for his wife, and it wasn’t what fans were expecting, it’s similar to the reaction Kanye got for DONDA because it was a personal album to his mom
Honestly bro, you could make a video about your room and I'd be down to watch. You come off like a genuine dude. Make that XXL video my dude!
Nahmir crying in the NoJumper comments telling them to delete the post has me dead lmfao
nothing could have aged more like milk than "i met kanye west, im never gonna fail"
Didn’t expect Roddy to fall like that … I understand every album can’t be a classic but LLFast was disappointing, hopefully he can bounce back though.
The shooutout to ToddInTheShadows was unexpected but made me smile tbh. Todd was my first music commentary related channel that i ever really got into and your channel is the second tbh
The Big Day was awful, but I'm willing to pretend it didn't happen if Chance drops an album on par with Acid Rap/Coloring Book next. Yah Know is a really enjoyable listen imo
Meh that’s a shit attitude. If you don’t like it you don’t like it but you ALREADY HAVE Acid Rap and Coloring Book so you should just be great fun for the amazing music the man put out and you should have nothing but respect for a man coming from nothing working hard succeeding and then taking the time to be a father and enjoy his life. If you respected chance on the come up then you should respect him enjoying the good life right now.
If he never made another song I’d still be a fan for life 👌🏼
@@mobilegameclips5628 Sure, that has nothing to do with what I said tho. I don't have anything against the guy. I just don't care for a project
I would love to see a Chance the Rapper comeback
Definitely do that XXL video, I’d watch it for sure. W video btw
chance got caught doing something, and that album was made to get him out the dog house lmfao
The fact that it was his DEBUT album is insane I didn’t know that
THANK YOU for talking about “Lost Without You”. That song went crazy, everybody always talks about blurred lines (which was a huge hit don’t get me wrong) but I saw a lot of 106 & Park growing up and that song was on the top ten like almost every week at one point
Chance is really good everyone has that one bad project and he has a very good chance(pun intended) to come back and blow the top of the music industry
I discovered Todd in the shadows recently too, dude's amazing
A lot of rappers don't have that same hunger after their first album. The hunger, passion and talent is what drives artists to make great music, in my opinion and when the hunger the drive and aren't there and any other negative aspects that's when the music stop being amazing, in my opinion.
Loving your vids bro! Awesome shouts for fellow music content creators. Look forward to watching your channel blow up!
I said this before in a previous video but a capital steez video would be cool, keep up the good work always love to see u post 💪
I agree this would be cool video for Mr ballz
been brain storming some ideas around him, would love to cover him eventually!
@@mattyballz let’s goooo, it disappoints me that he never got the recognition he deserved
@@lil_guapo_xya capital steez was a beast on tha mic 🙌💯❤️🙏
Love the Todd shout out, absolutely adore the Trainwreckords series
I think Roddy will be back with a smash...just a matter of time. He should stay off the internet and not rush anything.
Long live your channel bro❤️🔥💯
Love the idea to do the downfall of XXL you should definitely do it! Have been loving the videos keep on going!!!
Someone needs to get Todd this list cause he has his trainwreckords series and not only it’s informative but hilarious cause holy there’s a ton of artist that drop a hilarious awful album that basically destroy them
Suprised he hasnt done one on chance
@@mattyballz fr he did one for Katy why not Chance
Having “Thicke” as a last name crazy
I like you said man I remember when Chance try blame his manager who also been with him since day 1 from his first mix tap for his album flop but his manager expose him, show that manager show text message and other stuff that he told Chance don't do this album multiple times and but Chance wasn't having it and still release it and what worst when fans hate it, Chance even attack fans online call them hater and alot people said he didn't list to his manager cause he was on his high horse and thought his fans was going eat it up but they didn't and his producer sue him cause Chance didn't want pay him after it flop
So glad you shouted out toddintheshadows, watched him for years and much loved in the community!
I am not a christian at all but I loved a lot of songs on The big day. Chance's albums are always an acquired taste. I didn't like it at first but there are really good tracks on there and vibey and lit dance songs. It's just focused on monogamy instead of hoes and money so I understand why it never was accepted by the mainstream. Sun come down, 5 year plan, Do you remember, are my personal favorites. Wholesomeness isn't marketable but it doesn't mean it's inauthentic. Idk loved it personally
Chance The Rapper and Robin Thicke should make a really solid album together called, "I Love My Wife, I Love My Ex" their careers will come back stronger than before.
with roddy he was also on donda and was easily a top 3 feature on the album
Todd in the Shadows one of my favorite UA-cam channels. He’s hilarious. I also think the XXL decline video would be great.
You should make a vid on the parallels of early blues artists and drill rap. I can't use this idea, maybe you can
I've been watching Todd for probably 10 years now so it's cool people still getting into his content he only puts a handful of vids a year
Man I forgot about rob begging for hus wife back mid concert 😂
What's crazy is Nahmir is making a comeback, he started releasing good music again.
You be bumping nahmir in the whip? 😂
Nigga how is that a measure of quality music I’m not bumping “to pimp a butterfly” in da whip that don’t mean it’s not good 😂😂😂😂😂
@@iamsheron7408 learn to use this shit goofy and replay to my comment and not the original one posted dick head
I’m 100% on Roddy’s side. Feed tha streets 1 n 2 AND PEFBAS were fire. I want him to come back real bad.
Keep up the good work, you never let your fans down with great entertainment 😎
how much did the fake subs cost bro
I had no clue Robin Thicke's father is the father from Growing Pains?!😮 Craaaaazy!
3:38 “lets go ride a biiike with my wife AGH!” 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️❤️❤️❤️🔊🔊🔊🔊
I hope Roddy can make a comeback. I like his sound
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Todd in the Shadows has been around for AGES! Lots of great content!
I believe doing a XXL video would be an amazing idea
