I dunno, maybe his goal here isn't to be famous. He's achieving exactly what he wanted to- to write, express, make music and have it appreciated. Thank you Deca xxxxxxxxxxxx
@Grizz420twofourseven6 ай бұрын
I subscribe to this idea. I think deca believes he doesn’t need the fame. I won’t claim to know exactly but it’s possible he even thinks that fame is ugly and evil in its own way. I think he truly avoids it. This creating a new aspect of what makes his art so f***ing beautiful!!

@Grizz420twofourseven I met him at a festival a few months ago! When I asked him for advice about writing songs he said " let it be what it is, a cathartic process for you first and foremost."

I've come to realise that these rappers never get much bigger than this. The mass consumers don't want to hear real life, awakening, perspective. The majority listen to music to escape reality rather than delve deeper into it. Most will listen... Few will hear

How can someone so talented not be famous?
@timj97756 жыл бұрын
The difficult questions/content his work wrestles with aren't digestible to a wide mainstream audience. His work flirts with the esoteric and the ambiguous. This guy could probably be famous if he wanted to, but he's probably doing it for more than the fame or money (I honestly don't know him or his work well enough)... sometimes the best way to live is in the middle, between popularity and anonymity.

So in love with Deca rn, probably one of the greatest Hip-Hop artists of his time. Popular Hip-Hop (or Pop-Hop as I'd call it) has little variation in the songs themselves, their lyrical themes are repetitive and over used as well as promoting violence, drug usage and the Hood life. Deca on the other hand is very distinct in both his song writing and rapping.

It is a trip that I just found this dude though.. he is so God damn good.. I can't think of another rap artist who spits such understandable and poinent lines. It's all laid out in plain English, I can understand most of his tracks on the first listen. On the other side of the spectrum would be Assop Rock, on the 30th listen I still am only teasing a thread out of the shit he weaves. But I love them both in the same way.. its weird
