As of writing this comment, Lil Pumps' newest songs have not even broken 100k views on his 17.7 million subscriber youtube channel, and it's likely that this one six-minute overview of his new album will surpass them in views. I've never seen a career go kerplunk this hard in my life
Jesus christ. Thats brutal
17million? Damn
Wow

@@Immaculate0ne at least Robin Thicke's career imploded spectacularly, that follow-up album was a trainwreck
Usually when dude’s come up this fast, they fall off this fast. What lil Nas has done is even more amazing when looked through that lens.
I think it’s because lil nas X has talent bro
@@AA-ft2jj Sure, but it takes more than talent to make it. Some of the most talented musicians I’ve ever heard play on street corners. He is amazing at marketing himself, incredibly smart when it comes to keeping his name in the headlines.
@@TenThumbsProductions thissss
His music isn’t even that good the radio just sucks him off
@@TenThumbsProductions talented at marketing 😎
Man, this guy’s career failed badly. It seems like just yesterday when everyone was just one “Gucci Gang” away from ending it all.
love ur pfp + username 👍🏽🐶
@@FlameOnTheBeat Nah he had a couple hits to his name
It's great. I feel like this guy is the definition of big labels buying all in on something that sounded like shit (and himself, he bought in, fuck this dude), and then unfortunately we had the pandemic, but fortunately the pandemic seems to have freed people from mainstream radio dictating that they should love shit like Lil Pump. 2020-2021 have been super debilitating, depressing, made me personally wish to die, but managed to bring forth a ridiculous amount of great music (maybe as a result of the poor circumstances, maybe as a result of people not being in cars and having more opportunity to discover). The playing field will never be even, but right now it's probably as close as it could get and there's been so much great music in the past couple of years that's hit the surface. I feel like that might have been aided by people like Lil Pump. So thank you Lil Pump, for making dogshit music for a few years that was supported by Warner Bros.
@@idenentity I hope you love my username too

Wow, I had 0 clue he released a new album. I didn't even see any popular mainstream rap Instagram or Twitter pages announce that this album was coming out. Clearly Lil pumps gimmick wore off very quickly
Even Pump himself didnt even announce or try to hype this album. He went awol for over a year and then just half heartedly drop tracks since. Dont think he cares much anymore
@@FlameOnTheBeat same
Lil Pump's whole shtick was that he was a "new" soundcloud rapper with the target demographic of 14 year olds. hard to keep that shtick going when you've been in the game for half a decade. hope he didn't blow all the money he made during his short run.
I feel like he still has a pretty interesting personality. He should have struck when the iron was hot and came up with a television show or something like that. Or become a UA-camr. Hell he could still do that and make $$.
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 yeah he definitely could’ve been a successful UA-camr, their personalities are just as vapid
@@TheTheawesomeguy35 Kind of a bizarre take to have while watching a UA-cam video. He’d be great in some washed up rapper influencer house though
I really liked Lil Pump when the first mixtape dropped (I think I was like 19) because that's around the time I discovered my local smoke shop sold whippets. That mixtape + hippy crack gave me a lot of good times, 2017 was dope
I hope he did.
This still doesn’t take away from the fact you gave his self titled a higher rating than MBDTF
because he liked it more
@@waspswarm870 and his opinion was wrong
@@mikototsu7282 extremely

@@waspswarm870 how can you like a Lil pump record more the fucking MBDTF
J. Cole literally outlined what would happen to Lil Pump to his face and he still didn’t get a clue. Dude is a novelty clinging on to the last second of his 15 minutes of fame.
hope he managed his money better than he managed his 15 minutes or he's gonna be a bitter wash out
I think he bought a house immediately after 1985 dropped so there’s that. I honestly wish him the best.
@@epiczeke7620 bought a house doesn't mean much when you can't pay taxes and insurance. You gotta have money to maintain a lifestyle. I have an older family member with money, they have a nice house that's paid off in a nice area, and their property taxes and insurance combined is more than most of my friend's rent. If he bought a nice humble abode that's cool but if he bought a Mcmansion that's a liability, he could end up owing years of back taxes
Nah J Cole hasnt dropped a good project since forest hills for bringing up a clown J cole is a clown now
@@PrincipalProductions the logic
Ronny J used to go so hard when he was producing for X
Facts!!
You mean Denzel curry, he produced for him for years before that. I literally got two beats from Ronny J before he ever worked with X
@@byHexted oh hell yeah man. Him and Zel were unstoppable
100%
Also his work on Deadstar and Imperial
Nice try, Anthony. If Lil Pump isn't relevant anymore, how come Gucci Gang is still brought up my pretentious classic rock nerds when they bring up how all rap is bad and how "mumble rap" is ruining society?
Facts. Why is that the most used song by oldheads and other genre haters? I would understand using Panda cuz Desiigner's delivery is infinitely harder to listen at first compared to Lil Pump.
@@traplover6357 My guess is that more people probably know about 'Gucci Gang', and know about it specifically because of how it's been mocked. It's an easier target for people who don't keep up with the genre.
Wow, it's almost like pretentious classic rock nerds are pretentious nerds who listen to nothing but classic rock.
Classic rock nerds really need to learn to stay in their lane.
@@MacanWigit nail on the head
this kind of reminded me of Desiigner taking sooooo long to release "Life of Desiigner" that when he finally did, literally no one heard about it and he was already forgotten by that time. it's sad man
Desiigner is probably the only rapper that is more of a one hit wonder than lil pump
@@andersondy9744 lil pump ain't a one hit wonder. Had plenty of success with other songs as well.
I think Desiigner had a lot of potential too, which sucks
@@danielmashanic5738 to me he always seemed like a future clone
@@andersondy9744 silento
Remember in ‘17 when him, trippie redd, xxxtentacion, and lil uzi vert all were fresh on the scene together, along with a whole bunch of other sound cloud rappers? It’s crazy to see how four years can change careers into such different trajectories
edit: playboi carti is another artist worth noting that was his peer at once
I’ve always found it crazy how the perception of the soundcloud wave changed. Back in 2016 the media all treated them the same but Uzi and Pumps careers have been the total opposite of each other. Back in the day everybody saw the coloured hair rock rappers as one and the same but look at the game now
@@R-H-B that initial soundcloud explosion happened very fast and to begin with a LOT of them were riding the wave of like 2 guys. eventually your uzis, cartis etc solidified their own sound but it seems like pump just never adapted past the template they used to blow up in the beginning
@@waspswarm870 that sounds about right. Pump didn’t adapt. His music has changed sonically but it’s because he’s still doing everything he did in 2017 just worse
Daaaaaamn, time is flying fast. 2017 was already half a decade ago.
@@tasmeenbaker9912 I felt the same way as I was typing the comment 😭

Something tells me Melon does not think highly of this man's intelligence.
If you've ever heard him speak, you'd agree.
Maybe this was the whole marketing move:
- Don't promote it
- Wait for others to talk about how
"lil pump dropped an album!?!?!"
- Profit
The ole Lil Pump and Dump.
1. Don’t promote album.
2. ???
3. Profit.
@@McSwagBurgerXL stonks
It’s not a good marketing move
This marketing move only works if you’re a talented artist with an engaged fanbase, which he has neither of
I feel ya pump bby, nobody cares about me neither x
I remember in middle school, the annoying kid at the back of the bus would blast lil pump at max volume. What happened to those times? Withered to dust by the never ending tick of the universe’s clock.
Holy shit you’re young. Just you wait, you haven’t seen anything of the universes clock yet, bud.
@@WinedandDined27 bruh was that necessary lol. I’m a freshman in college and I think I was in 8th grade when a different kid blasted this at max volume in the back of the bus
It’s honestly crazy to think about this but his young stupid and middle school fan base has finally grown up.
Wow I’m so sorry you had to grow up in such an awful generation of music
@@WyWid it’s always necessary to remind the younger generations that they have no idea how hard life is going to get. Always. You’ll understand this once you get older.
Damn, haven't heard or seen this being promoted till this video. However, i'm not suprised, his downfall was inevitable and he wasn't meant to last - he's a microwave artist. His music has no longetivty and his antics over the past year or so hasn't really helped with his reputation. So, that's his own.
Maybe he can play it for his fans at the next Republican national convention
Anthony bringing more attention to this underground off the radar release thank you so much Anthony

@@deud. L
Honestly, this project gave me some good ass laughs.
He has some hilarious bars in there.
Def not mainstream anymore, but if you crave some new feeling of that old sound it's definitely there.
HIT ONE BUTTON AND THIS BITCH IS MASSAGING ME
@@EliteBeast come get her is so hard
didnt even know he dropped an album
Pump is faced with a point in his life where he finds himself sitting in his big ass, empty, expensive house, alone, 2 dogs shitting in the corner, a half empty cup with stale sprite on the table, and the numb, echoing sounds of a slowed down trap beat coming from somewhere outside, while he emptily gazes into nothingness. The pace slowed down, the party is over, numerous instances of existential dread slowly emerge on the horizon. He's probably too drugged out and dumb to understand this, but unless he changes something drastically, he will not only face irrelevancy, but also rapid physical, psychological, and maybe even financial decay.
This comment is horrifying but probably true
This is the moment Lil Pump released Oxford Dropout, an ambitious album inspired by the works of Radiohead
He’s already far beyond that point. The way you wrote that is fuckin harrowing as shit tho
Become a writer right now
@@davida5053 haha
On the album artwork, neither artist has nipples. What an inhuman flex, really.
sus...but true
As a zoomer, every middle school party was filled with ouu’s and yuh’s from lil pump. It’s honestly bittersweet to see his career go down the toilet so tremendously.
Lil Pump and Playboi Carti blew up around the same time and are both extremely repetitive in their music, but there’s a good reason why Carti is still relevant and Lil Pump isn’t.
carti fell off
@@ryanegger4425 lol
There's a lot of reasons actually.
tbh WLR didnt really do numbers like die lit for a reason its good but has hella duds
It’s because Carti actually evolved his style from Die Lit to WLR. Pump on the other hand…
Looking forward to Lil Pump's next 2 hour concept album
Can't *WAIT* for his love and hip hop season😍😍
Yeah the question is not will he be on Love and Hip Hop but when will he be on Love and Hip Hop.
I never forgave him for the way he treated that lizard
I'm gonna refer to him as 'Sir Pumperton lll' from now on
He just blew up off of a meme and didn't have the actual talent to prove his longevity like Lil Nas X
And he only got more notice because he endorsed Trump
He can't be a meme when he has had multiple hits
@@watermelon2223 few hit wonders can be memes. They're not mutually exclusive.
No hate on Lil Nas X but I feel like a lot of his public interest generating money-moves have a very corporate feel. He was also always coming from a likeable underdog position in the public perspective at large after the country chart did him dirty
On some real s*** though, is little Nas X really tearing it up these days? I mean like really. Yeah, his videos get a lot of plays because of the controversy and stuff like that but he's selling? Like big-time? Like I still feel like old-town-road was Far and Away above anything he's ever done by a considerable margin since.
Pump waited for the dislike bar to go away before dropping the project
😂😂😂
I called this shit when it was happening. They brag about being the biggest thing in the world but the thing is he doesn’t care about getting better at rapping or making better music, so he plateaued practically right when he blew up. This is what happens when you think you have nothing left to learn bc you’re so good. I’m sure anyone who ever tried to give him tips on rapping was told “Gucci gang is the biggest song in the world you idiot” and by getting better I don’t even mean changing his style or becoming super lyrical or something, Travis Scott isn’t super lyrical and he makes pop music and stayed relevant way longer then pump, bc he didn’t stop and go “I guess I know everything” you will never get out of a rut or get new ideas if you think you already know all there is to it
Ok.
@@theawesomenan Great input
you can't really compare travis scott and pump, travis was a slow burner releasing music since 2012
We ain’t reading all that
Ok
Lil Pump self titled is still a very fun tape to go back to at times. I’m in the minority that agrees with Anthony’s review - you just have to go into it knowing what you’re going to get
Most people agree with fantano. Just not fantano as audiance which is a lot of uneducated pretentious dweebs
I was a big fan of his debut, but even back then I never expected him to have any real staying power. I think no matter what his next move had been, it's hard to follow up a lightning-in-a-bottle event like he captured in 2017. Unfortunately I think he chose the worst possible way to follow it up with the MAGA shit.
You actually liked his debut? Oh lord you really musn't be okay in the head...
@@I.Am.Terrible.At.Usernames did you come to this video just to reply to every comment "you actually like ______? you're dumb", come on bro

Calling it now: Lil Pump and 6ix9ine go Hyperpop in the future.
no but lil pump dropped a rock song on his new album Lil Pump 2. thats not a joke
I don’t get why he didn’t make a new project for nearly 3 years since Harverd Dropout
One Day, them kids thats listening Grow Up,
and Get too old for that shit that made you blow up,
Now your Shows looking Light cause they dont show up,
Which is Sad Cause the Money Gone Dry Up, - J Cole 1985 (in 2018) 💯👀
“Now you scrambling and hoping to get hot again
But you forgot you only popped cause you was riding trends.”
Cole the prophet; Also the last line is wrong. It should be “Which unfortunately means the money slow up.”
i was reminded of him after the travis scott thing when that video of him helping out a fan who passed out during a concert and then giving everyone in the crowd water went around
He used up his 7/10 minutes of fame.
it’s sad that people only know this album, for it being unknown 💀
2 more years and he'll be on love and hip hop guys!
I actually thought about this yesterday out of nowhere and now this pops up let’s go
He should go hyperpop and get on Danny L Harle/Umru/Alice Gas/Yung Skrrt type beats. Featuring Rebecca Black
I think Lil Pump should make a project where he talkes the same dumb shit like always, but over Alchemist-type Jazz loops. That would be novel.
MadPump album incoming
True
I immediately laughed like a smug rich bastard after reading the title.
So funny you're coming out with this video because yesterday I just couldn't remember what his name even was
im lowkey probably one of pumps biggest fans (not that that’s saying much) and i only knew this was dropping because someone found a presave link for the album and posted it in the pump community discord. he hasn’t promoted it at all on any social media which is really weird. not even a “hey new album out slide up to listen” story or post. interestingly when it first dropped it was titled “lil pump 1.5” and had a totally different cover with cartoon ronny j and pump busting through a yellow background. it was called lil pump 1.5 for a day and then they changed it. also for the day it was lil pump 1.5 the song president played his other song “contacto” instead because someone fucked up the upload i guess. he’s been promoting another album called “lil pump 2” for a long time which this is supposed to be a prequel mixtape for. i think he’s just trying to figure out how to present a series of self titled/untitled albums most effectively
Lillian Pumpernickel
I feel like another issue with him that he kept bragging he was the youngest to do everything .Like I remember I tell people oh he's only 16 and made this song and they were shook. He's kinda the reason why bots always leave comments about how they're 14 year old upcoming rapper. Like in a way he gave confident to younger people to go all out
speaking of growing musically, i wonder what new music trends are going to become popular is we entering this new decade. especially in hip hop.
I actually just listened to Harvard Dropout again yesterday. Still slaps.
tory lanez is probably the only feature he could get lmao
Although Lil Pump played a big part in the ‘SoundCloud’ rap era, he didn’t really do anything apart from jump on the aesthetic bandwagon that other SoundCloud rap pioneers (Lil Uzi Vert, XXXTentacion, Lil Peep, Lil Yachty, Kodak Black etc…) had already laid down… He kind of just took the easiest elements to imitate from these artist’s styles (bass boosted beats… meaningless adlibs as lyrics) and created the simplest, most accessible version of the sub-genre possible. It was kind fun to listen to in a sort of ironic way but extremely lacking in any kind of substance.
Fantano is right, when you’re making art that totally lacks substance, the only way to stay relevant would be to switch it up stylistically… Something that Pump hasn’t done/probably can’t do as his entire style is based on ripping from a very short, specific era of music that is no longer fashionable. It’s old, played out and dare I say cringey now. That being said, I did enjoy some of his songs; he made his mark and I wish him the best.
fax.
Kinda like how Justin Bieber consistently makes records that get hated by critics but also get millions of views and streams lol
Remy Havoc Uh… Not really but sure.
Idk Justin Bieber is a fair comparison because he's a complete chameleon in that I literally don't realize half of Justin Bieber songs are Justin Bieber songd until I look at the artist list. Like he changes his style in literally the same year
@@AmateurishAstronaut wdym not really?
Most of the singles/songa that Justin releases gets a low score from Fantano and other reviewers but it still gets hundreds of millions of views on YT
Thought that was a picture of the jared leto joker for a second
I saw tory lanez as the only feat and I just closed the album down again lol
lmao
Pump accidentally put Tory name feature on Amber Rose before but he took his name off
Tory > Meg
Just need Lil Pump to be on love and hip hop and Cole is 100% accurate
Astute observation, Antnee
I love how mean spirited the title is
his name still makes me chuckle so I still care about him
Should have listened to J. Cole. Nobody wants to listen when they get dissed because they're scared that the diss might be factually accurate.
I thought so too, but his concerts are fire.
He came in my country on tour and it was the best performance I've ever experienced
You need to see more shows bruh lmao
@@AmateurishAstronaut Idk he had an one hour set and he didn't take a single break, only sang his old songs that still pop.
Massive moshpits and all.
Agreed but id still like to see an album review from you :D
The name looked unfamiliar at first lmao, brings me back to junior year
damn, you spit nothing but facts in this video fantano. especially with that point you made with the J Cole interview he had
It feels like with this, the astroworld disaster, and the severe lack of great trap records over the past 2 years, this era feels like the death of trap. Except it’s not exciting like the end of the bling era was, it’s just sad.
I understand why you’d say this, but Carti was just on Donda. And he’s still touring to massive crowds, and will inevitably release a new album. He’s evolving his sound, and might be kinda post-trap, but he has his links to the genre.
No hate, just thinking about it
I got bored of trap music like almost 5 years ago.
Like the moment every commercial has to have a trap backdrop to sell you their product you know its not cool anymore
One artist who nobody cares about, an event that was localized to one artist, and the last two years having no great trap albums because nobody wanted to drop for a year and a half.
This is jumping like fifteen sharks.
@@DDub04 that's not what jumping the shark means
2021 was a great year for rap and music in general just like 2018
i saw him at a state fair like 3 years ago and he played for 30 minutes and then left 😭

Can you review the mrgirl albm boundaries, think you might dig it
Countless hip-hop artists have faded from public eye, happens all the time. This one was a hard fall but tbf he's still only 21, time's on his side
He’s 21 and his brain is probably around 50 after all them drugs
yep and if he was smart enough to get people to help him invest, hes definitely set for the rest of his life and all he had to do was make low effort raps for a few years
I’ll never forget the iconic “little pimp”
i only learned ab this tape because so many music channels have said nobody talked ab it😂
This video is the best promotion it got really
Is it bad that his new song is kinda catchy 😭
Not necessarily a fan of that type of music but I really loved Lil Pump when he came out. His early simple bangers were amazing for just going crazy but once the label snatched him up they ruined everything that made him great. It’s kinda sad
