[@DondreDashard]

I think new female rap just struggles to sell in general. I don’t think girls like Latto or Glorilla will have high albums numbers either because theyre too involved in the internet. People know more about their personal lives and personalities more than they know about their music. I bet Coi has insane IG engagement because that’s where people care about her. Music is an after thought for these girls it’s the looks and drama first. Only hardcore fans will buy from them. If you not Nicki or Cardi then good luck with your sales.

These female artists gon learn a hard way that tik tok hype dont guarantee you sales and definitely not a real fanbase gauge..you gotta find something that uniquely connects your fans to whatever product you release. They love the benefits that come with fame but hate the work...everything is handed to them from marketing to writers, which is why they so entitled. One lil smash in, they start feeling like they deserve a big feature. And latto is not even popping without big features, and her last album did less than 25K....that mariah carey feature probably carried the whole album and now this cardi feature is the reason she charting. Meg is three grammys in but never sold more than 100k too. Cardi is yet to prove if she's really her or was it all just luck...yes she did it, but can she do it again. Nicki from 2017 to now has been constantly proving her point...that every song she drops will go plat or multiplat with or without radio play or playlisting. You might not respect her craft but theres a reason why great rappers of our time still respect her, there is a reason why jay z wanted to hop on a record she was in, there is a reason why she is still the best selling female artist in 2023, there is a reason why the world still stops whenever she announces something, there is a reason why she is mentioned with the GOATs...you might not like her music, but you gon have to respect her hard work and contribution to hip hop. To understandd her better, go dig into her catalogue and check for songs like, AUTOBIOGRAPHY, HOV LANE, ROMAN IN MOSCOW, ROMAN RELOADED, LLC, TRUFFLE BUTTER, BARBIE DREAMS, RED RUBY DA SLEEZE, YIKES, UP IN FLAMES, just to mention a few...she definitely got a lot of range and bars.

In this day In social media age you can NOT put the full single out first and expect people to still be in-tuned with the album. In this age of TikTok once the single comes out and it’s a hot the first thing they do is make a TikTok using the song for all of its clout and relevancy then once the album comes out they don’t even acknowledge or show that same love. She is going to have to start taking the Carti route and start starving the fans out put a hold on streaming any songs from the album until the release date of her album her sales and streaming numbers will DEFINITELY IMPROVE she’d atleast do 50-60k just from all the streaming and TikTok’s made on the day the album drops alone and she’s finally get the sells she deserves she do way better than 10k that’s for sure cause the millions of selfish mfs who use her single for their TikTok Dances and views are the same ones who can wait to do that same thing and stream it once the Whole Album is out. All those millions TikTok’s made off of this woman’s song and only %10 gave back the same love by streaming her album is disgraceful mfs only care about using an artist expand their brand but cant give back to that same love to the artist once their album comes out.

No she does not. When you have artists who’s parents have worked in the industry before, they never cross over well with the fans, cause the consumers feel like in a way, that artist is RICH ALREADY, or dosen’t have a REAL STORY or STRUGGLE. It’s the Same thing with Dani Leigh. Her mother works at a label so that’s the reason she even got on lol. You can Latto in the same category too cause even though she may seem like a successful artist I can PROMISE you the label is SPENDING more money on making her a star than their MAKING BACK. Latto music is not bad, but her fanbase isn’t as organic cause she had the TV show and a lot of connections in the industry thanks to her dad. Just like Coi Leray.
