Honestly all it takes is a ground breaking artist to take the stigma and treat it as a compliment for the stigma to leave.. Eminem did it with white boy rap… tyler made it so you can be suburban and not start from humble beginnings.. lil uzi, X, and playboi made mumble rap a viable rapping style… if these guys stopped trying to run away from it and create their own lane instead of trying to be adopted in created lanes of music.. they’d find the success and recognition they’re looking for

Yes exactly 👍 you get it too

Tyler did that or Kanye did that?? Kanye was years before wearing polos tight jeans and not doing gangsta or backpack rap.

[@OffTopicKamah]

@@tjali563 i think because kanye surrounded himself with people with street cred propelled him into hip hop like Eminem was considered that for his time even though he lived poor people didn’t respect him till later.. Tyler came trying his best to be different.. made different subjects of music that the usual hip hop demographic don’t listen to then got accepted without that backing… his music sounded suburban and took the cool out of it and made it more relatable for that group of people… jay z was very instrumental in kanye success

True instead of tryna run from the KZbin rapper lable make it your schtick make it part of your asthetic maybe have one youtube channel dedicated to all your music videos have another KZbin channel to behind the scenes stuff and the making of beats songs etc. Then have another channel dedicated to blogs, subscriber giveaways, slice of life stuff if a rapper steals my concept and blows up off it just remember you saw it here first

[@boejudden9011]

I think the X factor limiting a lot of this comes down to a simple fact. Rappers are supposed to be "cool". Whatever that word has looked like in every generation, in every rap subgenre, it was always about being the one that people want to be like. But for people my age and maybe several others, traditional youtubers are the antithesis of cool.

[@johndavis9321]

Big facts

[@johnnyvalentino8720]

Childish gambino wasnt cool he was a black nerd with social anxiety. Eminem was a weird white kid from Detroit who rapped about weird, dark thoughts. Logic, a nerdy biracial kid with family issues, token, a jewish dude with a lyrical miracle style, drake, a d list actor from a popular teen show. The list is endless u no longer have to be cool to be a rapper. Being a rapper makes you cool

[@mysonandme8424]

@@johnnyvalentino8720 no, it doesn't.

[@dopeyrelaxingsounds8607]

I disagree. I believe that it's because they don't put that much time into the craft. If you take Kendrick for example, and I'm a big fan of Kendrick, but the guy is fucking weird lmao. However people overlook it because he makes great music and he's an expert in his craft. His weirdness is overlooked. Not saying that youtubers need to put in Kendrick level work to be viewed as cool though I believe because a lot of youtubers try have their fingers in all the pies (put their fingers in all the pies? phrase goes something like that) they underestimate the amount of work it actually takes to be a top Hip Hop artist. Also looking cool doesn't mean shit if you're a dope MC. Eminem most likely wasn't viewed as cool by a lot of people on his come up. I understand what you're saying though.

[@TahniZCat2]

Here's something you guys never mentioned, that I kind of wish you did: KZbin rappers are definitely a wave that is slowly building up. scru opened for big name artists in the industry and even made songs with them, but chose to be a KZbin Rapper cause that's where he saw his career thriving, even though he could have gone big in the mainstream. Others Such as Dax and VI Seconds made big moves against the mainstream artist Tory Lanez; Dax being pulled up on and forced to apologize by Tory after Dax dissed him, and VI seconds (one of the best lyricists to be on the KZbin scene) accusing Tory of Stealing one of his songs and posting the evidence online for people to witness. With all of these artists being stuck under the limelight, and people like T-Pain and Logic going into that medium (though under twitch) and people like T-Pain saying he's gotten more money under being a streamer than he has being under a record label and in his prime in the 2000s, it's one heck of a debate on how blurred the line is between being a rapper for KZbin and being a rapper in the mainstream.

I think the real problem is that however you start IS gonna be how you finish as a KZbinr rapper, as far as perception at least. Token to me is a guy who doesn’t belong here because his-I think-debut album “between somewhere” is really just an album, and a really good one at that.

Most rappers have KZbin channels and post vlogs(Yungeen Ace, J Cole, Drake, Logic). They’re not called KZbin rappers because they got on through rap first so their music isn’t discredited.

0:57 he forgot Joe Pesci, Shia labeouf. To name a few

[@MajinTar]

Gold and Platinum status needs to be raised up to 5million or something

[@cameroncox1008]

DAX isnt a KZbin rapper at this point he's been too good for too long and he's recognized by too big of names

[@RaghuRoxx]

Leave Joji out of the list

[@smuleforsyth]

[@goaldealersentertainment]

In 2017 i used to drop freestyle videos on my channel and I can't believe I used to call myself KZbin rapper

[@Bonecrush14]

[@mannymengs]

Let’s go Randolph!!! Our fav sussy chungus

[@HooodClassicsTV]

You tubers been rapping. Prince EA, DPryde, DumbFounded, Timothy Delaghetto and many more. Shit Deshawn Raw use to mock rappers. I remember 10 years ago or whatever a bunch of youtubers were rapping but difference was they worked together, nowadays they don’t work together

[@sezeshvlhdlvr2393]

Yt rapper or not, Token EATS on beats. I've never seen someone rap like him before.

[@wolfgang2111]

I clicked for papa franku, ZERO filth in this video.

[@emojiiman8576]

bro u didn't talk about SCARLXRD, one of the most succesfull youtubers turned to rappers

[@conlooka9356]

Honest question, is scarlxrd considered a youtube rapper? He did youtube content before he put his all into rap

[@bibiinspades1953]

My cousin a few years ago Hopsin? I thought he was just a KZbin rapper

[@kena5563]

power of the internet, this is just one of the results

[@danielmartinez1932]

Should have mentioned Scarlxrd. Perfect for this type of vid.

[@justsomeguywholikesmangoes1363]

Is Scarlxrd a youtube rapper?

[@danielmartinez1932]

@@justsomeguywholikesmangoes1363 he was vlogger with a big following and completely different image. But started to hate it, deleted his channel and became Scarlxrd using yt to promote himself cause of his experience vlogging

[@kiddvandal91]

Part of the reason he pulled it off though is that his music was ACTUALLY good though. Dude really does love hip hop, dude was a bboy, a graffiti writer even while under his vlogging fame.
