Rappers Who Destroyed Their Careers With 1 Mistake

a successful rap career is extremely hard to obtain yet very easy to destroy one mistake One Bad album one tweet could start a ripple effect that leads a rapper to fade into irrelevance today we are going to look at the stories of rappers whose careers dwindled for reasons they likely could have prevented starting with Superstar Pride a rapper who had the fastest and most ironic rise and fall of all time many of you heard Superstar Pride briefly in 2023 when his song painting pictures went viral however it wasn't necessarily viral for the song but rather his obscure mullet style haircut the crazy part about this track is that it was originally uploaded in 2020 and went unnoticed M then two years later when he uploaded the live mic performance video to painting pictures it also fell on deaf ears it wasn't until 5 months after the music video dropped February of 2023 that Pride casually created a Tik Tok posted the music video snippet and it blew up the first clip he posted got 10 million views the second one did over 40 million views bro got the Sonic haircut bro looked like he got screamed at bro's haircut was 50% off nobody was talking about the song just his hair then a viral Trend emerged of people imitating his video with something ridiculous taped to the back of their head which could not be outdone when someone managed to get an entire airplane strapped to their head the opening line mama don't worry was also getting stuck in people's heads which led to the song amassing 160 million streams on Spotify and over 30 million on YouTube painting pictures shot up to number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100 and every major label got into a bidding war trying to sign him but he sided with Steve Stout and his independent structured music label United Masters and he wanted like $5 million from a label and when they didn't give him5 million they were offering him three he's like if it ain't five I'm not signing it I'm like what Pride let his ego get the best of him refusing $3 million for wanting 5 million 3 weeks after refusing the record deal he was arrested for murder a Mississippi rapper is charged with murder in Penola County 20-year-old cadarius Pride known as Superstar Pride the victim Marcus Wheatley was Pride's Barber likely responsible for his signature hairstyle wheatley's grandmother said Pride stormed into their house and gunned him down in the backyard currently pride is being held without bond and doesn't have a trial set nobody knows what happened or why it happened but a rapper going viral for his ridiculous haircut in February then allegedly murdering his Barber a few months later after denying 3 Mill ion doll is the most insane self-sabotage I have ever seen and if you thought Pride story was a poetically ironic form of self-sabotage meet Chance the Rapper who once famously said I met Kanye West I am never going to fail but still managed to fail Chance the Rapper's 2013 mixtape Acid Rap was universally praised by hip-hop fans his raspy voice and sprinkle of Soul combined with his youthful positive energy made this project a masterpiece tracks like cocoa butter kisses and favorite song have aged like fine wine but Chance was in no rush to capitalize on his buzz he worked on his next mixtape for 3 years he had the whole city of Chicago rooting for him and garnered support from the biggest artists in the world including Kanye West who featured chance on his 2016 album the life of Pablo Chance's part on ultral Light Beam is one of the biggest highlights of the project coloring book was his 2016 mixtape that served as the perfect follow-up to Acid Rap Chan's Cadence Soulful lyrics and euphoric beat selection was unlike anyone else in hip-hop at the time especially on tracks no problem and all we got he earned a Grammy for Best New Artist and some people even believed he could give Drake a run for his money but then he blew it and I'm going to blow you away when you hear about today's sponsor lately I've been obsessed with fantasy sports and that's where today's sponsor comes in Underdog fantasy Underdog is the easiest way to play fantasy sports but not just football you can make picks on

heavily marketed on triller to capitalize on the wo dance craze the song went viral but when fans criticized it on Twitter his responses would put a nasty stain on his reputation people have different tastes and that's fine but the way you're talking to fans who have been with you since 10 days disappointing and that ego reflects in theity quity of your newest music Ed it you are a spoiled child who thinks artists are making music for you I never intended for you to find or like anything I made if I knew you existed I would have tried my hardest to keep you from being able to enjoy it now go eat a again then chance over and over again told the fan to eat a dick this interaction was a far cry from the positive and wholesome chance of rapper fans loved then he dropped his debut album the big day on July 26 2019 the big day was a reference to his wedding day which he was planning during the creation of this album chance mentions his wife and family over 20 times on the record which became a huge Meme and while his intentions were pure the album simply was not good I am genuinely feeling like a strong zero on this record fans hated the project as well and we quick to let him know on Twitter chance would block anyone who poked fun at him or said anything negative about the album with the influx of hate he responded with Extreme Measures I'm getting this crazy feeling that people want me to end it these desperate tweets combined with his lazy album would lead to him canceling his 32 City Arena tour saying that he was instead going to focus on spending time with his family which again sounds understandable but it was a lie the tour was actually cancelled due to quote historically low ticket sales according to his now ex-manager Pat Coran chance fired his manager then blamed him for fan disappointment in the big day and underwhelming fan support for its Associated tour Corrin would go on to file a lawsuit in November of 2020 against Chance the Rapper for breach of contract stating that he has owed over $2.5 million in reimburse expenses for supporting and promoting Chance's career and additional $3 million for unpaid commissions and 15% of Chance's net profit across all business earnings the lawsuit also revealed that chance started working on his album in February of 2019 which was only 5 months before it was released his manager knew there was not enough time for the creative process that was involved in releasing an album Chance's recording efforts were compromised by unproductive and undisciplined Studio sessions procrastination and laxidasical effort which explains why there are terrible lyrics throughout this record if you blink it you might miss it you got to click it or tick it life is short as a [ __ ] but mind's a little LeBron and how could we forgetter jelly aut butter jelly with aut butter jelly chance let his own ego squander his career he couldn't just admit that he made his fans wait three years for a Bad album that was rushed out in 5 months and the way he responded to them on Twitter was just childish from here all his hype died on the other hand if he stepped out of the Limelight to genuinely focus on his family that's respectable maybe that's something we should celebrate rather than see as a downfall but Chance wasn't the only rapper whose Twitter fingers started their downfall in the case of OG Mao he pretty much forced everyone to hate him because of his Tweets in 2014 OG Mao had a ton of momentum after his song you guessed it went viral on Vine this track was unlike anything we had ever heard at the time before Mumble rap took over we had OG Mao screaming insane M Libs over the most simplistic hard-hitting trap beat he had a darker more rock-like aesthetic and even called himself not a rapper but a rock star the song reached number 90 on the Billboard Hot 100 and he could even be credited with inspiring many rappers after him it definitely inspired Keith ape who just released a track called it Ma that sounded suspiciously similar just listen to them at the same [Music] time OG Mao tweeted I'm aware of the Koreans that mocked me and took my sauce I'm not impressed I'm not inspired I think it's kind of lame to each his own Maco even accused Beyonce of stealing from him and her 711 music video if you look at them side by side he may have a point but Maco was developing a reputation of a bitter egotistical rapper who complains on the internet he randomly took shots at his collaborators and label mates the Migos Mao felt the need to tell everyone that skippa to Flippa invented the dab dance that the Migos were using in the song pipe it up to which the Migos replied the flip a man is Migo family OG Mao let's see you set a trend then Maco said half the rap game has already bit one of my flows or ad libs let me see them album sales meanwhile OG Mao has never had a gold album let alone the dozens of platinum records the Migos have then he went after Lil Uzi when XL tweeted Lil Uzi is rap's newest Rockstar he tweeted dudes don't just become rock stars somebody got to show you the way stop playing with my name with a picture of Uzi at an OG Mao show on stage behind him then academic said you pave the way for Uzi then Mao replied with dozens of tweets over the next hour trying to explain why he is so influential and Uzi was stealing his sauce he also randomly took shots at future I love future but I also understand future has destroyed countless lives by making it cool to be a drug addict people looking up to Loser attitudes because this generation is afraid to strive for anything it's y'all's fault all this lame ass [ __ ] is possible again he may have a point here but fans replied to Mao calling him a hypocrite since he raps about the same stuff but Ma claimed he was dumbing down his music to blow up you guessed it was not luck it wasn't an accident I made the dumbest song I possibly could on a beat full of base and knew it would blow I manipulated over 40 million Minds in counting based on the exact same principles that I'm preaching who's more qualified to say this now Mao has always made more conscious focused music with substantial lyrics Jason Fred Cil warig have been pre before but a lot of his music was just mediocre boring trap [Music] get also if he claims to be such a genius why wasn't he able to do it again during his brief moment of popularity Mao consistently released music on SoundCloud but nothing sounded anywhere near as Innovative fun or interesting as you guessed it his downfall was easily due to dissing rappers for absolutely no reason non-stop complaining on Twitter and trying so hard to take credit for the success of anyone else was he an innovator absolutely but he spent spent too much time talking about how influential he was on Twitter rather than trying to create a legacy to maintain his career but what happens when the reason a rapper blows up is the same exact reason why they had a downfall on July 26th 2016 just a few weeks after his 16th birthday SoundCloud rapper T and five others conspired to rob a 17-year-old drug dealer Zachary belote the crew broke into the house around 10: p.m. and the robbery went wrong which led to the drug dealer's friend and roommate Ethan Walker being fatally shot T admitted during the police interrogation that he was not the shooter but was there looking for drugs and money he had been released from custody pending the trial and was placed on house arrest with an ankle monitor for the next 7 months T sat in his room making music releasing it on Soundcloud and built up a following with no money for a lawyer and quickly approaching the hearing for the murder TK infamously tweeted that he was tired of house arrest and the police were going to have to hunt him down while on the run from the police T was very active on social media media fans posted pictures and videos of him in public but tayk and his friends were desperate for money he robbed a 65-year-old man named skip Pepe at gunpoint in Arlington's Craven Park he then attempted to rob a cameraman named Mark Anthony salvar in a Chick-fil-A parking lot Mark began screaming for help as he tried to escape then tayk hit him with the car before getting out fatally shooting him and driving off San Antonio police connected t to the murder due to surveillance footage and posted wanted signs around the city TK saw this as a marketing opportunity posting pictures and videos with the wanted sign he then dropped a song called the race on Soundcloud which essentially told the story of him being a fugitive robbing and killing people while on the run from the police after filming and releasing the music video to the race TK was captured by US Marshals and Elizabeth New Jersey the shockingly true story led to the 17-year-old exploding in virality the race secured hundreds of millions of views on YouTube reach number 44 on the Billboard Hot 100 and # free became a movement supported by some of the biggest rap rappers in the game he even signed a $700,000 record deal but none of it mattered because he was behind bars and in 2019 he was given a 55-year sentence after being found guilty of murder and three counts of aggravated robbery obviously T's downfall could have been prevented if he simply did not commit these heinous acts but as bad as it sounds none of us would even know about him if he didn't actually Rob and murder people then make songs about it while mocking the police on the run from the law rap fans glamorize this type of behavior because the music is a lot of the time violent and derogatory so if you're going to rap about it fans want you to be about it but the fans won't be the on sitting in the jail cell pisy is an example of someone who was heavily rewarded for his violent music his song back in blood featuring Lil Durk was essentially a song about killing your enemies this track would reach number 37 on the Billboard Hot 100 and secured himself as a promising new talent in hiphop but at this peak of his new career he got arrested pushy and his crew were at the King of Diamond strip club in Miami Florida allegedly shyy had money taken from him which led to Major commotion in the club security acted accordingly and escorted py out of the club but he forced his way back into the club and accidentally fired a handgun at a working security guard pisty turned himself in on June 8th 2021 and had his hearing the following day where he would be denied Bond he would later be sentenced to 5 years and 3 months in prison on April 20th 2022 he could have easily just left the club and let others go handle the money situation but maybe he felt the need to live up to his back and Blood lyrics I got my own fire don't need Security in the club if you haven't noticed rappers and shootings seem to be a very common Trend that leads to their downfall Tory Lanes is no different however many people still question if he is actually guilty of being the shooter in 2020 Tory Lanes was at the peak of his career his feature on Jack haro's what's popping reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100 while objectively being the best verse his album the new Toronto 3 debuted at number two on the bill board 200 he broke the record for the most live viewers in an Instagram live during his quarantine radio show during the pandemic however on July 12th 2020 he was arrested on a felony gun charge while out with Megan the stallion after attending a small party at Kylie Jenner's house the public was also informed that Megan had cut her foot on broken glass then 3 days later she changed her story to say that she was shot in the foot then one month later she said this yes this [ __ ] Tor shot me you shot me and you got your publicist and your people going to these blogs lying and stop lying social media immediately took Megan's side Tory remained silent about the allegations but responded with lyrics on his album dayar how the [ __ ] you get shot in your foot and don't hit no bones or tendons how the [ __ ] your team is trying to paint me as a whole Menace Del delusional like how that 1942 from Kylie house still got you talking crazy as well as also rapping about why he hasn't been nearly as vocal as Meg think I'm going to talk about an open case for some likes Tory Lanes was charged with one count of assault with a semi-automatic firearm and one count of carrying a loaded unregistered firearm in October of 2020 although Tory claimed he was being blackballed by the music industry his career continued to thrive he released four albums independently which would all Garner hundreds of millions of streams he received praise from LeBron James as well as dozens of other mainstream acts fans believed if it wasn't for this case he would have been toe-to-toe with the biggest rappers in the game but once we finally got the information from this trial we would end up with more questions than answers on July 12th 2020 Tory Lanes his bodyguard Megan the stallion and her friend Kelsey Harris were attending a small gathering at Kylie Jenner's house Megan testified that she lied to the police about the glass lied to doctors and basically lied about the entire situation out of fear her news story was pretty simple she said that they had an argument she exited the car Tori leaned out of the passenger side door said dance [ __ ] and shot her from 25 ft away in the back of the the foot then Tori ran up to her apologizing and she got back into the car so they could give her a ride home the cops arrived when the neighbors reported the gunshots Tori chose not to testify and defend himself which he would later regret Kelsey Meg's friend testified that Tori was trying to hook up with Kylie Jenner and Meg tried to convince him to leave the house Meg was upset that Tori didn't want to leave so she got into the car with Kelsey and drove almost all the way home before realizing she forgot her slipper and went back to Kylie's they grabbed Tori the second time after Kylie allegedly told them to leave in the cars when Tori admitted that he and Megan had been in a romantic relationship Kelsey was shocked because Megan was the one who hooked up Tori and Kelsey in the first place Kelsey also admitted that this was not the first time Meg had back doored her when it came to men now we have a love triangle and this is how the argument started but Kelsey pleaded the fifth when it came to speaking about anything regarding the gun or shooting the government offered her immunity so she couldn't be charged with any crime even if she admitted to it she still refused to speak there was one witness Shawn Kelly who saw the altercation from his balcony after being awoken by the arguing Shawn said he witnessed Kelsey get out from the back seat open the front passenger door and start physically fighting Megan in the front seat he also said that the muzzle flash from the gun was closest to Kelsey much of his testimony was ignored because he couldn't identify the People by name since it was dark he only said big man small man and two women nobody admitted to hearing the words dance [ __ ] besides Megan there was gunshot residue on Kelsey's hands and tor's hands also after this night Kelsey and Megan and sto being friends after being best friends for 7 years when Tori was initially jailed he called Kelsey and apologized multiple times to her I know she's probably never ever going to talk to me ever again but broh I just want you to know I was just so drunk I don't even know what was going on I'd never do some [ __ ] like that regardless that's not going to make anything right and that's not going to make my actions right but I'm deeply sorry for that I never even move like that at all people speculated Tori was apologizing for sleeping with both of the women and causing chaos others see this as an obvious admission of shooting the gun some people think it was Kelsey who was angry and shot Megan some people think Megan was the one who accidentally shot her own foot some people think that Kelsey pleading the fifth was her attempt to try to save both of them but at the end of the day the jury decided he was guilty and because of that Tori was sentenced to 10 years in prison
