 Baww what's up everybody once again it's Brandon man Sean and today we're going to talk about Tekashi 6ix9ine. Now there's been a lot of videos bringing perspective to Tekashi 6ix9ine's rise. Window video was Blackies why hip hop hates Tekashi 6ix9ine but I want to talk about something specific because a lot of people have asked me why Tekashi 6ix9ine has been able to blow up and can keep going despite some of the controversy that's been around them and one of them is something very unusual and that is how his fan base was built. In a large part of his circles around, fuck them. Now if you don't know fuck them, if you look at them up on YouTube you'll see that many of Tekashi 6ix9ine's videos have been posted on fuck them. If you're a fan of his you probably noticed that by now because he consistently is posting on fuck them for the most part. I believe even when he posted on Worldstar he even made a statement that they're still doing videos with fuck them but the point is fuck them is a brand that really historically seemed to serve Eastern Europe and Russia. If you even look at Tekashi's rise when he started to really do shows a lot of them were in Russia. They were in Eastern Europe. They were in London and all that kind of stuff if you look all through last year. It wasn't until December of 2017 that Tekashi 6ix9ine did a show in New York. His hometown. Which brings up a few interesting points. One being why did they go with fuck them as opposed to all the other you know pages. It's not even like the page was huge back when they started so I don't know it's probably more of a personal thing because how else would you even have known about that page. Especially considering the loyalty that they've had to that page and another thing is actually one of the big things a lot of you have been asking me when we talk about Tekashi 6ix9ine and getting through a lot of this controversy that a lot of people are seeing when you consider the fact that so much of his fan base has been built overseas first being built differently than a lot of other upcoming artists like a trippy red or I don't know a triple x all these people when his fan base is built over there first and all of a sudden you started getting a lot of this controversy a lot of the things that we might see in the news outlets over here they aren't necessarily being seen and fed in the same way to a lot of his core fan base because the internet is a little bit segregated despite the fact that we do have this worldwide access there still is a reality that a lot of these pages still tend to be geographical in their primary basis. I talk to artists in other places all the time I remember talking to some artists in London and they were talking to me about this huge page that a lot of people post their music to kind of like a world star kind of like a fuck them and I never heard of it but it's typically artists that are London so you definitely have to take something like that and account when you think about a Takashi six nine especially since it seems that overseas fan bases are a lot more loyal in comparison to the fickle love you right now hate you three hours later market in the United States and the last thing to really think about is the interesting path that the team decided to take and why they were right in the back of gummo kuta and kiki before he really hit his hometown in America it's not that he hadn't done any shows in America at all but the way they really set it up it looks like they're hitting America hard as opposed to building up in the same way that a lot of people kind of have to but they went the hard way first by going overseas building something really interesting a lot of places that a lot of these artists can't even touch this Thursday I'm gonna be in Poland this Friday I'm gonna be in Paris France and Saturday I'm in St. Petersburg Russia make sure you buy your tickets and pop out squat so with all that being said I think this gives Takashi a really strong foundation in comparison to the most of the artists that y'all put on the same level to him because his fan base is in different places and he has different cores where a lot of these other artists are depending on one core and they're still not even strong in that core yet Takashi is actually ahead of the game in a lot of ways one I know what you guys think about this in the comments and what do you think that means for his career and what artists do you even compare to Takashi personally other than that hit that like button if you liked this video if you like even miles well share it and if you're not subscribed you know what to do hit that subscribe button
