To think the guy in the background of the music video smiling playing drums would be one of the biggest artists out rn and possibly one of the best artists ever in my personal opinion is absolutely insane.

He rapped about conciousness, universe, hologram, iluminatti, paranormal, religion, consipracy, human development and knowledge and many other subjects with great delivery, tight lyricism and unique flow. Industry just want you to think less and promote superficial and materialistic lifestyle so they can make a deal with some brand and sell you something.

This is objectively false. I say this as someone who's been a fan since 2009. B.o.B was a phenomenal artist who made timeless music throughout his career. Listen to "One Day", "Coastline", "Joburg" and "E.T." for example. He didn't ride the wave, he created his own, so he could never be surpassed. The thing is... he changed his style. His music didn't become dated even by mainstream standards, have you not listened to Ether or any album after that? He slowly abandoned what made him so special to make music that reflects what's popular. It got to a point where he no longer sounds unique, like he's not even trying anymore. Now he just makes what I call strip club music... he rather talk about ejaculating on women than something actually meaningful. So it's funny you say his music didn't change... it did... and for the worst.

Oddly, his EARLY song with Asher Roth "F the Money" predicts the ebb and flow of his career. "I'm gonna make a lot of money, and quit this crazy scene." Based on his dialogues with Brother Panic, he planned all of this... his career is only "destroyed" in the eyes of the mainstreamers.

Earliest collaboration I can think of that didn't involve a lady singer for a romantic song is from Nas & Lauryn Hill, If I Ruled the World. Most of Mariah's collaborations with a rapper had to do with some type of romance, even if it was just a flirtatious party song (not really romantic per se). And, she was often the main feature with a guest rap verse, instead of being limited to the chorus and a few lines
