Death Grips
NMH on /mu/
>taking DJ Khaled seriously
>ever
>>61965868
>impying he didn't make the best bangers of the 2000s
All I Do Is Win, Fed Up, No New Friends, I'm On One, We Takin Over, Welcome To My Hood, nigga's got classic bangers under his belt.
>forthcoming
>>61966138
Can't forget "I'm from the ghetto"
>>61966576
So many classics.
It's a shame there are genuinely people who only think he's relevant because of the recent you smart you loyal you a genius bullshit. Dude's been huge for years.
He's the king of the generic banger.
Usher's hook on this is too god-tier.

>>61967144
>not taking mista world wide seriously
not dale at all. What part of miami? I live in west kendall
>>61967144
hello fellow Miami bro
What's going on with DJ Khaled? Something to do with Snapchat?
>>61967208
the h3h3 guy on youtube made a video reacting to the hold you down video which is how the you smart you loyal thing became a big meme
that video became popular and made his channel blow up with the filthy frank fanbase memer 14 year olds so he did more dj khaled videos and those became big
plus the snapchat where he posts goofy ass shit like keys to success
>>61967285
Is he serious or are those snaps only for show?
>>61967285
ahh kk thx
>>61967208
He posts his motivational "keys to success" on his snapchat. Ton of memes have popped up from it.
>bless up
>major key
>ride wit me
>they don't want us to _____
>another one
>fan luv
>we the best
>how's business?
>don't play yourself
>LION
He's basically a walking meme at this point.
>>61967323
of course he's serious.
>>61965442
>musicians
Khaled is just a snapchat personality.... he has very little to do with music
At least it wasn't timbaland
>>61967358
i see
>>61967396
>he has very little to do with music
>>61967358
I was thinking about this yesterday, it's just way too repetitive. Even the breakfast thing is the same.
Buuut he must be doing some serious bank.
>>61967396
You're dumb. He's a well-known producer and has several platinum records and has been making hits for 15 years or so now. The SC thing just made him even more popular than ever before when his relevance was starting to fade a little bit.
>>61967491
Being a meme is pretty marketable. Just look at Drake.
>>61967607
How is Drake a meme?
Mac demarco
>>61967678
Apparently people only know drake from hotline meme
>>61967678
Literally everything he does is turned into a meme because he is the king of normies
Also apparently his music is sad and there are a lot of memes about him crying for some reason
>>61967678
have you used social media in the past year
>>61967491
i thought that since he's a meme, that people wouldn't buy all the merch that he's showing on snapchat, but apparently its selling a well. i honestly don't know how but i guess some are serious and some are taking the meme to the next level of irony
>>61967678
The video to Hotline Bling gave him instant meme status.
>>61965442
>>61965868
>>61966576
>>61967358
>>61967372
You guys can't all actually be this stupid. Like I thought the bullshit contrarian viewpoint you all adopt would eventually lead you to understand how right he actually is lol
Rick Astley's an obvious one
LION!!!!!!
>>61966878
>He's the king of the generic banger.
Pretty much this, I don't know if you could look at the charts around the middle-end of the 2000s and start of the 2010s without seeing Khaled somewhere in there.
EGG WHITES
David Bowie
vektroid
>>61967358
I lose it every time "LION"
Seriously though dude has produced some serious bangers. Take some time to look up some of his tracks, he isn't always yelling "WE THE BEST" on all of his shit
>>61967785
Hugh Jackman is looking a bit more adventurous these days.
Jeff Mangum
Darude
Earl Sweatshirt by virtue of being part of meme future
>>61972124
You have to admit, he's done a pretty good job of distancing himself from it
>>61972124
no way, he's regarded as one of the best rappers right now. Look at his interviews and the written reviews.
>>61967358
I love bless up.
>>61967678
>how is Drake a meme?
>>61965442
I don't think this is possible, even looking at one of the most memed bands like NMH, they're music is still taken seriously because they released serious music. Just cause some people like to meme about it doesn't mean it isn't taken seriously, because the people who are meming about it aren't going to be taken seriously.
>>61972694
Death Grips tho. I know lots of people who think they're just a joke or only know them for their ebin meme status on the internet rather than their music.
