It’s not a reach though imo. Coi got one of the hottest songs of the year. And Gunz carved out a niche as an underground rapper.

Puffy s son who looks like him did have a number one with Kodak Black
Her album sold 11k first week. It depends on how we’re defining “successful “.
She has a top 40 single right now and another top 30 hit within the last two years. That’s some success imo.

lmao you can't call anyone or anything that was on for 5 years a fad. a fad is like 6 months - a year. If Run DMC was only on for 5 years then they had a better run than 50 Cent

Sadly I've seen many videos from this channel about coulda shoulda wouldas.
Keith Murray's was one of the saddest.
Ras Kass's sons could be stars with Coast Contra... Big Pun's son goes hard too...
I think talent can be inherited if youre mother, father, uncle, aunt etc are literally heavily talented writers and/or performers... Look at Dionne Warwick's family tree, legit generational greats in one family: Dionne and Dee Dee Warwick, Cissy and Whitney Houston and also the opera singer Leontyne Price...
In hip hop though I feel like its alot harder to gain respect within the genre, especially in the 'gangsta rap' sub genre as most rappers come from nothing and earn their money and respect the hard way by grinding, so when they or fans see a rich son (like jojo simons) acting tough, bragging about money and cars it comes off really corny and authenticity plays a big part in hip hop... So when you see JoJo flexing its like bro, you used your Dads credit card to buy all that stop acting like you got it out the mud...
The kids that generally do well are either singers, as their subject matters generally arnt that braggadocious or rappers that rap about partying or that focus on bars like Ras's kids or Pun's son... Plus Pun's son really didnt have much money growing up so he actually did do it the hard way....
People generally dont like nepotism though...

Yea
People generally don't like nepotism... unless they're able to benefit from it
Why wouldn’t he count?

He was a big dope because he wanted to be famous as opposed to just being comfy being the son of a musicals legend. His sisters found their niche and he should have been happy to do the same but it’s easy for me to say that cuz I’ve never been the get bullied type. He was. He doesn’t have the physical presence of a dude that women desire and men respect. He has a twerpy kind of look.

When you look at most the actors/actresses in TV and Hollywood, even random musicians is wild how many have famous relatives...

Was the interview where they basically told him, youre wack and you need to up your game youre up here on the strength off your pops??? lol
That freestyle was cringe. I couldn’t actually watch it.
Are there any successful rappers that lacked both?
