Brings a tear of happiness to my eye to see a coherent lil pump

[@lukefasano4474]

He has grown up a lot and matured. He just kind of mellowed out. When he asked Pump about Kanye’s situation and he just said “I ain’t got nothing to say about that” he is smart.

[@topspot4834]

I'd hope a 22 year old man matures a bit since he was 16 ... Still calls himself a "kid" and music stuck in 2017. That said, I wish dude nothing but the best. Hope he saves his money and invests wisely.

He’s still giving the short answers and doesn’t have a whole lot to say but there’s definitely an improvement there. Really glad to hear that he’s off the drugs though!

16:52 Bootleg Kev was trying mention “Kid Buu”. I think Lil Pump knew who Bootleg Kev was talking about but decided not to say anything to give Kid Buu clout and decided to look like he has no idea. Keep in mind Lil Pump was super tapped in in the SoundCloud era.

[@Blue69HD]

This what he should be doing. Showing his personality because everybody be hating because of his old image

[@topspot4834]

Agreed. People got bored of his antics. It doesn't last. People ARE interested in him though, as long as he's willing to show some vulnerability and could be somewhat relatable. I don't fw his music, but wish him the best!

[@LowercaseKev]

He did well here. Not gone lie...but I wish he would have actually taken something from the J Cole discussion/album situation. Clearly he has grown up a bit, but It's clear Pump has far less visibility then he had back when Gucci Gang dropped vs now. You can be rich, be touring, and dropping an album and still have fallen off from where you were prior. Two different examples - Tyler the creator hasn't fallen off from where he was between his albums dropped. But somebody like a ski mask the slump god, there is no way you don't say he fell off...even if he still has money, tours, etc. Or hell even The Game. Whether his rap skills are insane still, there is still a fall off. A lot of the younger rappers forget overseas is usually behind rap wise and will still love your sound but just because Slovenia or Japan is showing a lot of love, you could still be stuck with your fanbase stagnating or even dropping off. After Gucci gang everyone wanted Lil Pump music. Idk if he has that same level of appeal anymore. Think Jay Electronica. Man still rich touring but are you gonna go buy or stream a new project from him if he drops one in early 2023...probably not like you would have in 2017

[@goatpepperherbaltea7895]

His music style wasn’t meant to last but he can get people interested again by evolving and maturing like yatchy gets a lot of praise for that cause all the music he’s made over the past few years is stuff that no one in 2016 would believe he’d be making
