Imtherealak did it again
It's not often as a 34 years old father that you get to have your whole ideologies shook by...a kid essentially.
For those reading this(hi mom xxx)@imtherealak is a young uprising hip-hop artist, who grew a legit fan base (Subscribers & Followers)on his YouTube channel by remixing mainstream instrumental such as Kodak Yellow, Saints, Gucci Gang(god i hat the orignal and evryone who helped release that crap)& more importantly ; 🐼 Panda.
At only 16 years old , this kid took over the world , for what we can only assume, was an Highschool beef with some Jersey pricks lol. He dessssstrrooyyeddd that beat with meaningful and raw lyrics. He kept on coming with more and more remix who instantly became virals and related to evryone. Even me, a god damn 34 years old single father , felt like this kid ripped my saoul in half. My personal favorite to this day, is his Lights Out Remix.
So I followed, like and subscribed the shit out of That kid, because I felt his hungrinest for perfection and willingness for growth. I loved those simple , clean and humble videos with his white stained bedroom wall. I loved it. It was authentic and the dude was ripping his demons out. Bbeeeaaauuutttiiiiffuuulll work.
Then he got headhunted and went to L.A....and it changed his flow , his authenticity and I'm genuinely worried that my favorite artist is listening to the wrong people.
Meaning by that, is that we got his newest release 2 days ago and I'm still not over it. What was once a poor kid from Jersey rapping out of his room ,with shit taped to his egg shell washed up painted shitty wall , is now a clean cut jumble rap artist. He change the receipt and even change the location of where he is filming from.
Bro the people you are listening too are wrong bro. People felt in love with the content and the realnest of you words. Now you making fun of broke people?? And changed ur flow? But for who? Not for ur fans who got you from 10 to 950k+ Subscribers. Remember how blessed you were to get those 100k subs? We still here bro, but now you are doing the equivalent of buying a MacDonalds Franchise and changing the big mac Combo. I don't feel like this
I think a lot more can be done from the original spot, dude sell the wall to sponsors with the commitment and the response you have from your fan you'd have what sponsors wants...traffic from targeted demography.
And before I forget , you mentioned LA a lot. We get it's a step forward for you but with all do respect , please keep in mind that beeing in LA doesn't make you the best(im talking about producers not you, ur the shit bro)it just means you went to L.A to pursue your financial and social dreams. Lotsssss of unique talented producers are living in small town because theu chose a family life style and rather focus on local artist and shit. Be careful bro and don't buy a bag of fairy dust.
But let's talk about me for a sec, i love that shit. What you did to me with your last video is that you had me rethink my whole vision on changes. I hated that you changed your style(yes you did bro lets be real ok) and you venue. I hated it. Still don't like it. But then I got upset with how much this upseted me and get even more enoyed.
Was your video a reflection on my own weaknesses? I always praised myself on being adaptable and quick to adjust. I can move from a house, end a relationship and change job 3 times a year and move within hours notice from places or jobs & sleep like a baby. So why this that god damn video affected me that much and why did I watched it 7 times at 2am??
Because as adaptable as I am , I realized thay there is levels of change in a man's life and that for someone like me, who relate so much to music and artist, this baisycly represented betrayal, a important part of my taste pallets changed and I wasn't asked about it
I felt like a my GF was telling me(or ex) that she is getting a new hair cut new jens new look but not to worry about it. That nothing is changing and that new guy Mark at work is a friend. Those peoples im LA are not just friends bro and have an agenda(btw the whole story about my gf new look is fictional to prove my point.
So yes , imtherealak made me once again realized that a 18 year old kid can at any moment, put out a mirror to your face and expose yourself. He exposed my weaknesses to translate change into progress when it come to my taste and core habits. Thanks bro. You did it again 🙏🙏🎩🎩
