Starting point is 00:00:03 When getting into these two particular artists, one being the most, if not one of the most iconic artists ever to come from Atlanta. And then of course, when it comes to the other artists being described as having the best discography ever in hip hop. Now, of course, the two particular artists I'm talking about is Kanye West and Future. Because when you think about it, their collaborations as far as. Mr. Miyagi and of course the track happy off of the Donda 2 that I believe was only released on stem players those tracks I think would have went crazy on the charts to the point where I don't understand why Kanye then put it out on DSPs with him being completely independent there's nobody giving him checks and balances as far as where and where not to put it which is why he
Starting point is 00:00:56 was able to put a whole album on stem and which is why currently he's able to put out a whole album on Twitter because imagine if he did that while he was under UMG or Sony or Warner that lawsuit would have looked even that lawsuit would have been longer than the Drake lawsuit that he's currently using against UMG that lawsuit would have been incredible right because now you're releasing music and not only you're releasing music but you're releasing a whole entire project for the masses for free so anyways when it comes to mr miagi that's an unreleased track from kaney west is don to two and when it comes to happy which i'm not going to lie to you i do not know how kane west sits on these type of tracks the amount of fire that these particular tracks are but especially happy because the beat
Starting point is 00:01:55 i believe when it comes to the beat that beat was so fire that i have no sources of whatever but let's just say i believe it had strong inspiration for a particular track from my favorite artist and more specifically i'm talking about i think it was i think it was broke boys i want to say broke boys so as far as the beat on happy and as far as the beat on broke boys by drake I think there's huge coincidences as far as how the beat levels up and how certain sound effects are used often throughout the beat.
Starting point is 00:02:49 That's all I'm going to say. I don't have any sources. Let's just say I made it up. But I think it had a huge influence on broke boys because that beat, that happy beat is a top 10 hip-hop beat in the past two to three years. It's a phenomenal beat.
Starting point is 00:03:05 And that's just, they're just sitting on it. I mean, I guess they put it out on the stem player, but still, that is not equivalent to what could have been the exposure as far as putting it out on DSPs. Now, when it comes to Kanye West and future recently, I think a lot of people are off of Kanye West for the simple fact that he said F Virgil and not only did he say F Virgil, but he was saying a lot of other things as far as it being really disrespectful as far as just a lot of different artists in the community. because I believe Kanye even said certain things about future that I'm pretty sure he didn't take kindly towards right but who's going to say something that Kanye was when he could turn around and make a track like happy right um with that being said there was another portion I was going to get into as far as Kanye and future because neither artists have any tracks or albums on billboard top 100 200 currently that is very telling because future young thugs just put out a collab with future but when it comes to play bricardy futures on his album a bunch of times and playbricardy has three tracks in the top 50 so no no he has three tracks in the top 100 my fault evil jordan being the less popular of the three as that's the 87th most popular track in the world but then you have
Starting point is 00:04:33 rather live with the weekend that's the 49th most popular track in the world and then you have timeless with the weekend once more that's the 27th most popular track in the world so i feel like for future to be on such a highly listened to album as far as the engagement and not to have any tracks currently charting with playbordy i'm not going to say it's telling because of course he just ran last year as far as starting one of the greatest beef ever in hip-hop history basically him and metro boomer started that on their album I, we don't trust you, right? And then the follow-up album, we still don't trust you.
Starting point is 00:05:08 And then the follow-up from that, where he put out Mix-A Pluto talking about the lot of, let me chill, let's just say there's a lot of things that Future was doing last year to make up for the fact that he's not on the charts this year because he was running rampant, right? Kanye West, I don't see him being on a charts anytime soon because he doesn't want to put out music on DSPs. I think he's okay with putting out music just for free on Twitter
Starting point is 00:05:32 like he did with his World War III album completely putting it out on Twitter to this to the point where now I do not believe we'll get any Kanye West official music on DSPs because he's just not in that state of mind right now to actually go throughout the process to officially release it to DSPs he's just putting out music for free on Twitter and YouTube as far as the future hopefully this young thug track goes off but currently future really has no presence as far as the top 100 when it comes to tracks and he has no presence as far as the top 50 when it comes to most play albums, which I think will change if he ever decided to put out a single or an album. But currently, as it stands, Kanye West and Future have no digital footprint as far as Billboard and the music industry. And that is a sad day in history because of them sitting on these league tracks as far as Happy and Mr. Miyagi. But with that being said, click my link to share in my bio. Let me know on one of my social media's what do you think about Kanye West and futures recent collaborations what do you think about the track happy do you think I'm gassing it do you think I'm awful my conspiracy about it
Starting point is 00:06:38 having a lot of implications as far as how Drake went about the broke boys beat or what do you think about Kanye West and Drake not Kanye West and future not being on the billboard charts entirely
