I... don't know what to say.

[TangoAlphaLima]

I heard that single is low key fire

 

[norm9]

If I was one of the millions of artists and musicians out there busting my ass, I'd be fucking pissed.

 

[FeenixRising]

hopefully its a TLC deal.

Please tell me she signed a 360 deal or some shit

 

[Squire]

She makes Cardi B sound like Beethoven.

 

[SillyEskimo]

hopefully its a TLC deal.

If it is I hope shes not left eye.

 

[Sulik2]

I need off this planet. SMH.

 

[Supha_Volt]

Hopefully it is a one day deal and she retires the next day.

 

[Bronx-Man]

It's Atlantic. She'll be kaput in 3 years.

 

[spindashing]

Aren't Atlantic Records known for their 360 deals anyway? lmao

 

[AudioEppa]

If I was one of the millions of artists and musicians out there busting my ass, I'd be fucking pissed.

That should've been the biggest backfire thread of all time.

[BlackJace]

If it wasn't already obvious...
anyone can be in the music industry.

 

[Kaizer]

Atlantic Records? Yikes

 

[NeoRaider]

She is 14 y.o. i think and has no talent for music so any deal is great deal for her.

 

[Valhelm]

she's riding this train a lot farther than I thought possible

will be interesting to see what her life is like 5 years from now

 

[MugiwaraCole]

Me reading this:

"Who-...ohhhhhhhhhhh. Why??? Ugh."

 

[ForsakenLotus]

Hype!

 

[Plywood]

If I was one of the millions of artists and musicians out there busting my ass, I'd be fucking pissed.

I've dwelled among the humans. Their entire culture is built around their memes. It's funny to say they are new, it's funny to say they are old. I've been at parties where humans have held bottles, pencils and thermoses in front of themselves and called out, 'Hey, look at meme! I'm Mr. So-And-So Meme! I've got such-and-such for a meme!' I never saw it fail to get a laugh.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Damn, she came up fast. The whole Catch Me Outside thing was less than a year ago, right? She has enough followers on Instagram to make a living like most of those vine star kids, hocking products and merch. But she's actually getting more traction than I expected.

 

[AdventureMike]

I've never "Uggh"-ed so hard in my life.

 

[Fury451]

Something tells me this won't be a positive thing.

 

[Black Republican]

for a 14 year old, thats a hell of a comeup

It's okay, you're among your own kind now.

Great, another Iggy Azalea.

 

[CaptainofIndustry]

Another Iggy Azalea.

It's funny, I just read an extensive article about Iggy's mediocrity, was both hilarious and informative.

[Not]

Eh, whatever. Either she gets better and gains my interest or she doesn't and I remain not caring

 

[Fixed2BeBroken]

Lol.

Please tell me she signed a 360 deal or some shit

its most definitely a 360. Those are the only deals now for new rap artists (and prob all new artists in general)

 

[LookAtMeGo]

I have a feeling this is going to end with her in rehab at some point.

 

[Dirca]

Is this even a language?

 

[Demoskinos]

Oh look at that. Autotune for days. Lol.

"blaccent"

 

[Mimosa97]

hopefully its a TLC deal.

What's a TLC deal?

Lol.

Please tell me she signed a 360 deal or some shit

What's a 360 deal?

 

[uncelestial]

What's a TLC deal?



What's a 360 deal?

Basically the label gets everything, even when you sell merch or show tickets. It's the label response to record sales going in the shitter in the age of streaming services.

 

[Count Dookkake]

Wonderful news.

I am so happy for her.

 

[Fixed2BeBroken]

What's a 360 deal?

means label gets a piece of EVERYTHING the artist does.

before artists be able to do side ventures and got all the money from their concerts/merch, etc and label just got money from the album/record sales.

now, anything the artist does, the label gets a piece of it. thus 360, it covers everything around the artist.

 

[Subpar Spatula]

nice. her work is definitely better than most out there. hoping to see what she does now.

 

[Madness]

Why? Atlantic Records is going to promote her music regardless; in fact with a TLC deal, where they'll be making more of a profit, if her music pops off, they'll be incentivized to promote her music even more. I get that you hate some easily ignorable 14 year old but the way in which you're wishing her to fail is counter-productive

You were in the other thread about her single saying the same thing, why are people wanting her to fail, you all really hate her etc. Are people not allowed to criticize her mediocrity be rewarded? Why do you keep highlighting her being 14 as meaning she is free from being criticized? If she wants to be in the public eye rapping about 'these hoes' she is free for criticism. People don't like it because she represents everything wrong with modern fame and celebrity. Especially because it again is an example of sheer white mediocrity be rewarded in America. This is a girl famous for LITERALLY threatening to fight people who didn't like her being a culture vulture or insulting her mom on national television.
