DDG Thinks He's The GOAT Internet Rapper.

was popular man I missed y'all missed this channel a little bit nah let me not play around I missed this a lot but let me get to the point before you know we get a little bit sentimental which We're not gonna do at all ddg went on he just recently released an album how much it's gonna sell I don't know will he do more than I think it's over under coil array that's what we're looking at with ddg sales the projections didn't come out yet if your question is whether or not I listen to it the answer is no that's not this to ddg is just wasn't compelling enough I haven't listened to the little TJ album one either so but ddg I was about to say TJ ddg went on Twitter and said the following ain't nobody that came off the internet got as far as me and this music stuff I'm leading this stuff effort tweet or a meme the numbers speak for itself I'm a Pioneer and then he shows his monthly listeners which is about 6.6 million not bad but also not outstanding I don't know if ddg got hit in his head or what but we gotta break this down because this is completely wrong first off somebody gets Soldier Boy on the phone because if we're talking rappers off the internet Soulja Boy got a number one hit ddg had a hit I don't even think it went top 10 moonwalking in Calabasas we haven't heard from him since then now I know he's had songs do numbers since then but who's really been bumping ddg of ddg song since then nobody I mean by who I mean a group of people everyone's talking about it it's being played everywhere outside on the internet everyone's talking about it that hasn't happened he's tried a lot since then and man if I gotta give credit to ddg he really really wants to be respected as a rapper will that ever happen stay tuned find out in the next episode or maybe in the next four seasons with how long it's taking just going to internet rappers just from ddg's era or prior to his era dude we just got joji I posted this on my Instagram which you should follow me I've posted on there consistently now it's at hello Yasin and a bunch of people brought this example that's the first example that came to my mind because he said music not rap which is joji he was a YouTuber he got off the internet in terms of character wise stuff like that he started making music and this guy's killing it he's doing he's doing damn near four times the EDG when it comes to monthly listeners I mean 24 million monthly listeners he's had a top 10 hit with glimpse of us he's had not a sleeper hit but that slow dancing song that one slowly became a hit he's had massive tours solo by the way he's killing it in music and most people that know him now know him as a musician respect him as a musician and it's just younger people that grew up on his YouTube that are like yo we missed that but I don't think anybody actually wants unless they're really selfish I don't think they actually want him to go back to YouTube like he is the perfect example of somebody that did something right at the right time and then left it on a high note it's kind of like Michael Jordan retiring except imagine he retired and never came back that's what joji basically did so joji do not come back to YouTube if we look at other examples of rappers we have Soldier Boy obviously who went number one in what 2007 number one 2007 off the internet no Tick Tock no you well there was YouTube let me not play around with that no Instagram no none of this that ddg is using he made it to I think was he at the Grammys I don't know but he made it to number one which is bigger than what ddg has ever gotten to and then we gotta give another example who makes trash music which is why this example hits even harder which is KSI although when we pull up the numbers if we're going by monthly listeners which is what ddg posted he does have three million more monthly listeners than KSI however KSI now now that I think about it you know what ddg I'm gonna give it to you you got one over on KSI because nobody outside the UK is listening to KSI and his music sucks I can't name a single good KSI song so yeah ddg you got it on KSI I'm not even gonna try to play you with that one that would be disrespectful and we gotta give more credit to ddg for the fact that he's better than KSI number one he raps better which isn't saying much Jake Paul raps better than KSI also KSI has had huge features he has had Rick Ross features he's had a little Wayne feature I'm pretty sure he's had a future and 21 Savage feature still flopping I mean maybe not in the UK but we're talking about American Shores here he's at a little dark feature so he's had way more features and looks that he definitely got taxed for then ddg has ever had and ddg is still lap in him in terms of monthly listeners now shows I think if they pick whatever City that they want KSI does a London show or I think he did a London show already yeah he's embarrassing ddg in terms of people that show out however musically speaking and the audience for the music ddg beats KSI so if that's just off the top of my head we definitely got joji bean and we definitely got Soldier Boy beating him who else has done music ricegum we're not even considering him as a musician he did get a platinum plaque but ddg is also Platinum so that doesn't even count and ddg actually made a song that people who are above the age of 14 were listening to so that kind of covers everything I wouldn't say important but the numbers wise aspect now we kind of get into ddg where I don't know if ddg is his biggest fan or if he's trying to convince himself that he's his biggest fan and then hope that we follow along because ddg tries really hard and I'm not saying that in a way that's disparaging I mean this guy is doing any and everything to try to make it to stay at the position he's at and to try to make it to the next level and just it just isn't working I don't know what it is maybe it's the music I haven't listened to the album so I can't judge it but he was doing that Tesla song I think it was it Elon Musk or was it Tesla that song seemed to be moving a little bit and then I don't know what happened ddg is also a likable personality which is partially why I don't like he was cool with Aiden Ross whenever he would hop on his stream he was an entertaining guy when he does his own streams or clips that I see I don't watch his streams with clips that I see on Twitter and stuff he's entertaining he does good marketing campaigns like for example when so Illuminati absolutely came up with the greatest name ever which is due to garbage for him he kind of played along with it capitalized on it got a bunch of people to go to his Spotify and check out his stuff so he's doing everything right but it's just not holding weight and I don't know if it's because ddg is too accessible but he has tried in the past to fall back and not be seen as much and if that was working for him then I don't see why he would come back to YouTube and content the way that he has maybe he just has to hang it up not in terms of rapping I wouldn't say that but just hang it up in terms of wanting the same respect that a future gets or a gonna before all this stuff happened maybe there's going to be a new Lane of people that started making music after because realistically he's the only YouTuber well that Aries guy does that Aries guy have more monthly listeners than ddg he was a YouTuber initially no he does not he has 1.4 million also we also got to keep it a buck ddg signed to a major label and he's doing the most I wonder how much they're doing for him I take that back completely they definitely got to be doing a lot for him because when he posted that screenshot it was a couple of days ago his monthly listeners was at 6.6 million now it's at 7.2 million yeah they're doing the most for him but when I look at it this album what features did he have La Tyler was this the song that was trash I think I saw a preview clip of it and if it was abysmal nle Choppa and Bia so he didn't really have that much features on it I don't know if that's something that he wanted or maybe he was forced to because not many big artists were going to give him features or they were taxing him for the feature which I could see as well but for his last album he had like gonna offset on there Polo G Kevin Gates which isn't as big as the previous four not anymore he was at one point so maybe this is more of a solo album that he's trying to drop but one thing that I can say about ddg is I've never listened to a ddg song and felt like damn that's ddg I always felt like oh this is somebody especially when you listen to a project of ddg you're kind of just hearing an imitation of somebody else and that's fine if you just started rapping but DG's been rapping what five years now can we get something original like can we get a ddg sound can we get a ddg recurring type of producer a type of style of Beats like something like the people are itching for it well your fans are itching for I wouldn't say like the majority of people are itching for this but I think that's possibly the greatest criticism that I have now keep in mind I haven't listened to the album so maybe this album does have an original ddg sound but I haven't heard that yet so I think that's one thing and perhaps people still keeping him in that box of being a content creator that's also something else like if he pops in every now and then it's cool but when you're doing both this is the sad part about the internet people want to put you in a box so if you don't fall back and do like a main thing which is rapping for a long time and they forget about you and they start to see you as a rapper then you're still going to be in the content creator YouTuber box which seems to be what ddg is in right now but I just don't get why he wants that acceptance or I don't know it may be success or popularity or whatever it is so much like you're making a ton of money your fans love you your music's doing okay it's not like people have crazy high expectations of you so what is it what more do you want is it more clout is it I don't know more admiration like and then when you get more admiration when's enough enough so that's kind of just what I wanted to know more about ddg but let me know what y'all think about this is ddg who else you would say from the internet let's say content creation because internet every rapper's blowing off the internet who started off on like YouTube or twitch and is now a huge musician that is more popular than ddg doing more numbers than ddg other than joji and let's say in the past 10 years I think that's a good question let me know in the comments like subscribe and hit the notification Bell if you enjoyed
