The Embarrassing Rise and Fall of Smokepurpp

Guys, there are only a few days left to receive my limited edition Spooktober t-shirt, these will disappear before midnight on October 31st and will no longer be available, so if you want one, visit trapfloor.com or hit that link in description and grab yours before it's too late cheers group tight juice world in the hour freestyle that's crazy hey juice I wrote I'm coming for you there's an hour or an hour I made an hour , we might both have to come here at the same time and they come and go and smoke purp why should people care about purp smoke?

Why should people care if they don't? I'm trash smug purp is a man of many names apparently in the past he's been called lil purp lil water young west young vegas and little home invasion, but you may have heard him referred to more commonly as trash, trash, smoke, fart or just the worst rapper of all time or just the hard hitting roller of Lil Pump. In many ways, Smoke Purp's career has been a true roller coaster. It's a lot less entertaining with him reaching the dizzying heights of a cloudy rapper faster than I would have expected, but with all that clout comes the pressure to live up to expectations.

I know it's not hard when your fans expect little more than to simply keep your eyes open while you lean your adult body against the microphone stand, but with such low expectations, somehow after reaching the top of the league of rappers SoundCloud, Smoke Purp managed to disappoint his entire fan base and anger the entire hip-hop community. the process If lil pump is the model of the talentless rapper who gets way more success than he ever deserved, then smoke perp is the model of the ignorant rapper who was sent to fame by a label only to see his fans turn their backs on him . when he most needed his support, so today we will see up close the triumphant

rise

, the shameful

fall

and the promising return of the smoke criminal.

Smoke Delinquents started producing beats when he was a kid, but considering how good his beats were at the time. At that time no one wanted to get on a cigarette per b, so not being able to find rappers to collaborate with, the criminal decided to become the rapper he was looking for and, wow, a 14-year-old criminal showed up with the goods that they began to rap under the name young. west and uploading a handful of very low five freestyles on youtube young west I'm freestyling like I don't even know what I'm saying and although smokepurp's lyrical ability doesn't seem to have progressed from this point, a key factor that spurred his lyrical ambitions in the rap game was the addition of his now infamous partner, eventually bored of rapping with his own smoke, he convinced his childhood friend, Gazi Garcia, who we will now know as Little Pump, to start rapping with him, you know what? means that smoke purp is literally the only one responsible for kickstarting the world war, so frankly someone needs to go back in time and take down the smoke criminals so lil pump never happens, so pump's abilities and criminal on the microphone may be questionable even to this day, but what is not questionable was his ability to produce catchy, hard-hitting songs that would captivate the interest of a young SoundCloud audience and, as time went on, the songs by Pump and Dep became catchier and catchier and the beats they rapped over became catchier and catchier.

Getting louder, I mean, let's not forget that around this time, the mid-2010s, all kinds of weird, wonderful, hardcore songs were gaining traction on SoundCloud and turning no-name artists into mega stars in a matter of months . Lil Yachty Little Lucy See Lil Peep. Dios Feo and Salsa Joven came about when they unexpectedly appeared on SoundCloud and of course, who could forget our boy xxxtentacion? You know, the guy with his stupid hair, in fact, Smoke Purp arrived early to hook up with fellow xxxtentacion from Florida and the criminal's second song was a collaboration with x titled live off a lick, so despite any musical talent, the criminal was determined to show his midrange and rhythms in front of the rack fans.

In fact, the first music video we saw Smoke Pup appear in was the song It's Nothing in 2014. Featuring the seemingly deranged rapper Lil Ominous Ominous by name Ominous by nature, interestingly Lil Ominus is actually Lil Pump's cousin who originally had introduced the criminal to pump and although that song is complete garbage and the smoke criminal's appearance is frankly incomprehensible, I mean, he basically spends his entire appearance in the music video just waving a comically small little bomb, that's what I call a micro bomb anyway, despite this on-camera trash, Debut Purpose soon realized that the key to growing in the rap game was the music video, so throughout 2015 he continued recording and releasing tracks on Soundcloud songs like Samsung Jump, which quickly became a fan favorite, and pole with swag hollywood, which the offender says was his first song to gain traction outside of his native Florida and, therefore, with some catchy tracks under his belt.

The offender from 2016 went on to produce some music videos and later said that every time he posted a video he saw his fan base grow. One of his first attempts in front of the camera was the weigh boat freestyle, a track later appropriately called money counter where I saw the criminal in the studio flexing once again with lil pump and a sinister little guy waving small wads of money and medium packages of marijuana. I saw a lot of fives and ones, guys, now this song may not be good, but at least it's actually coherent. Money Counter proved that the criminal could make a catchy song, put together a decent music video and continue to boost his career every time he left it, and that's what he did throughout 2016.

At the end of January of that year he released a song. video for the track, I bought my lonely boys from Where Perkins while I was on a pathetic looking dead set while watching old Gucci Mane videos. I mean, it's basically what Chief Keith's video would look like if he had a lot fewer teammates and played in more shirts, I guess, and Of course, it wouldn't be a smoke video without him waving another tiny gun. In fact, I swear that every time young Smoke Purp released a music video, he must have spent every scent he got investing in a slightly bigger gun. 2016 the continuous buzz of smoke purp continued to increase in june he released the visuals for the song wockheart doubling down on his proven formula of flexing in a dirty room holding another small gun the track walkheart is, of course, a love letter to the beloved wok brand of cough. syrup, but wait a minute, that's activist lee, how am I supposed to believe everything you say now?

There's also this part of the video where Pep puts a lean bottle up his headband, which I think is fire, so July 2016 it was time for the offender. to take things to the next level, releasing the Cole Bennett-directed music video for his Balaclava that quickly became his signature song. The music video was particularly memorable for the appearance of Lil Pump dancing with a large pump pointed directly at his mouth and unfortunately not pulled. Anyway, the trigger at this point was clear that the perp had graduated from small bombs to big sticks with dicks and tits, the runway balaclava was blowing smoke in a way I had never seen before and you know, the first thing I just getting a little clout on the internet is no I'm not talking about hooking up with blac chyna, I'm talking about jumping on the no jumper podcast to do an interview with soon to be datum 22 adam 22.

The offender no jumper's appearance made His influence grew to a crescendo point and the profit continued to capitalize on that rumor at the end of 2016 and beginning of 17 with new drops like his expensive track where for once he seemed to forget his little weapon and they had to take it out. in the post he dropped the song from a swisher featuring xavier wolfe on lyrical lemonade where we once again saw pump purp and wolf waving guns in another dimly lit room, another music video that looked like that sleepover with that kid that your mother warned you about the house, but It was in March 2017 that the criminal would launch his first bona fide blow to the track block in my Benz, which initially turned purple in mid-March 2017 and then launched at the end of the month.

My Benz was the first time the benefit of smoke really hit my radar. I first heard the song on the radio when I was on vacation in Los Angeles and I must say I couldn't stop playing that song. The hook was very catchy. The rhythm was difficult. I must admit it was team. smoke perk from that point on and you know who else was the team smoke perp interscope records the same month smoke pup mocked the track blocking my benz, he also ended up signing a major record deal with alamo through interscope records, from In fact, according to Alamo perpetrator Todd Moskowitz he basically hired him simply because he privately listened to Smoke Perp's next audi track just as Smoke Purp SoundCloud Cloud was peaking.

Moss was how he saw it, so he didn't even hire me because of the ski masks he didn't see. Me because he heard Arty's preview, everything you were, not yet, really, yeah, he didn't hire me because he saw, heard the people, the audience, Simon and told me it's a success, and even if you think Audi was one. of the most trashy, pointless, lyrically empty rap songs ever made, there's no denying that Todd Moskowitz at Alamo was right that Audi was a certified hit because they got the smoke offender to settle in March and In May it already was.

Dropping Audi and reaching the peak of his career, this was the offender's big debut commercial single with the label and he didn't disappoint today. audi has amassed 77 million plays on soundcloud, 167 million plays on spotify and 64 million views on youtube, but strangely it came out in 2017 with all those views, Audi just went platinum this year, so listen, no matter how much you Dislike his stupid music or his ridiculous haircut or his punchable face or just everything bad he's done to the music industry, you can't. Let's take away the fact that Audi was in fact a huge success that actually convinced a lot of people that the smoking criminal was worth listening to and for a moment it seemed that none other than Travis Scott was also convinced, as in September 2017 he apparently came out out of nowhere smoke. appeared on twitter for facetime with travis scott bro, you also want to know what's funny from day one, like throwing away the time, like I told him, I'm like, bro, I want it, I want to end up in cactus jack, that's crazy, yeah , it seemed The offender had been given a cactus jack chain and many reported that the offender had signed to Travis Scott's label and sure enough, when the pub's debut commercial mixtape, Dead Star, dropped later that same month, we saw to Travis Scott appearing with a feature on the track.

Fingers Blue, a track that later got a music video in February 2018 where we saw the criminal wearing that Cactus Jack chain. It now came to light in 2020 that the offender had never actually signed to Travis' Cactus Jack label and the offender denied ever being kicked out of Cactus. jack on an ig comment that seems to suggest that perhaps this link between Scott and the criminal was one of those fake promotional deals the label set up to try to align a new artist with a more established artist label. This is kind of like what Warner music did with Pill and Rick Ross' Maybach music in 2011, but anyway, believe or not the Travis Scott partnership had anything to do with it when the offender abandoned his debut project Dead Star in September 2017, it was reasonably successful and peaked at number 42 on Billboard in In addition to Travis Scott, the tape also included collaborations from the likes of Yogotti boss Keith Juice J Drum and, of course, Lil Pump, in In many ways, this was really the golden age of SoundCloud ignorant rap, Pump Peep, XXXtentacion, they all came out for the first time.

The music scene was exciting and that was a very special place for Smoke Purp and in the wake of this successful project he continued to push his career forward by releasing music videos for other Dead Star tracks like Phantom Krispy Kreme and Blessed Your Trap, then he moved away. in 2018 with the release of his next full-length commercial project, Blessio Trap with producer Murder Beats, hitting fans with a promotional single One, Two, Three and doing an interview with Nardwar before abandoning the entire project in April 2018. bless your trap reached number 40 on the Billboard charts in the US and number 30 in Canada and this was in many ways the highlight of the offender's career in terms of albums.

He had had a huge hit song on the Audi charts with Dead Star and surpassed that hit with Bless Your Trap, but unfortunatelythis. is the point where problems would begin for Perk's career, as from now on the antics of an arrogant smoke criminal would make him a hated figure among more conscious hip-hop fans, possibly in part due to the success without His middle-grade music effort combined with him becoming increasingly hooked on drugs and unable to truly control his career. These people are where the down

fall

begins, just like Lil Pump. There came a time when Smoke Purp began to be known more for his antics than for his famous music.

Taking on the wider conscious rap community in April 2018 when he led his fans in a Jake Cole chant, now to be fair this was unprovoked as just a few days prior J Cole had attacked Perp and Pump on his diss track 1985, where he seemed to throw a heavy dose of shade at the young duo, suggesting that their music lacks substance, saying that they are just following trends and that they are likely to go bankrupt and fall once those trends disappear, very fair points that were clearly not taken seriously. by pump and criminal who that summer released their devilishly ignorant single nephew, a song that despite j cole's strong opinions was an unexpected hit and became the criminal's next biggest song after audi today nephew has more than 106 million views on spotify 66 million on youtube 26 million on soundcloud and it went gold, but the criminal did not have much time to celebrate this because within a month of having this success he would be receiving different types of hits after being roasted.

Motivational rapper Russ and by putting a photo of his sister as his profile photo on Instagram, a video soon emerged of the offender getting the beat from a group of Russ's thugs backstage at a festival, but at the same time it wasn't all that was for Smoke Purple. The same month Russ's bullies were punching him in the face, on the first day, his brother Lil Pump was releasing a hit in the form of a raunchy song. I love it. This was Kanye's biggest hit in years, peaking at number two on Billboard, but even more interesting. On this track, Smoke Purp got a sizable writing credit and I'm assuming a very substantial behind-the-scenes bag, yeah, because it was nothing but the 808, sorry, and I just went in there and did my thing and then you put it on. the magic.

I put the magic into it, however, it seemed that at a certain point all of this behind-the-scenes success was leading Smoke Pop down the road to ruin, with this period being in late 2018 when Smoke Perk became so addicted to prescription drugs. . he had to do a brief stint in rehab bro, I actually went to rehab, although really yeah, I never told anyone when it was that was anyone's first time here, when was that Robert? It was like this time last year, what? How long did you run away? I was supposed to be there for like a month, but I ran away, I ran away, they took my bags, I went to the airport, I said this, I'm out, hey, I'm out, how long did you last?

For about a week, he spoke to Heist Nobody about his struggle with addiction and said he initially stopped taking xanax but then got hooked on percocets and oxis, at which point he stopped caring about music and people told him that It just wasn't there. more and so at the end of 2018, despite so many golden opportunities that fell into his lap, the smoking criminal's health and career momentum seemed to be in danger and the profit soon went into self-destruct mode in early 2019, even having a The public gets into fights with his friend from day one, Lil Pump, belittling him and saying that he deserves credit for writing hits like Gucci Gang Punk.

I'll put you in the studio. You better stop playing. I wrote and produced all your early songs you're talking about, man. Listen. I'm not gonna play with you no mo I need all my royalties man I need all my money gucci gang that was my song I gave you that song I gave you your first big hit oh hey who knows maybe all that was fake for clown but apparently in April 2019 the offender had quit drugs and, trying to get his solo career back on track, began a promotional run for his upcoming Lost Planet EP, first appearing on Sways Universe looking much healthier than before, but that's how it was.

On this show the seeds of the problem were planted when the offender introduced his new artist, tco kt, who influenced Dooley to put him on the spot and encouraged him to do a live freestyle to his credit. ttokt spit out a pretty good freestyle from the dome, which wasn't necessarily lyrical. impressive but a genuinely passable freestyle that shows he had the rap skills to step up to the plate, they don't see it on my watch cause they're lazy, i'm doing dirty dances like patrick swayze, these yeah, they forgive me, they said that . She's not doing it, she on my cock, she sucks that and shows it, but this attempt to put her man in the spotlight, in the moonlight, quickly backfired on Perth, who was then duly put on the spot and also asked to freestyle with mixed results. this attempt at clumsiness went into a pre-written verse from his unreleased track, Chopsticks, before continuing with more pre-written files from his phone, which seemed to go so wrong that he started searching his nose for better lyrics, by now the criminals should have learned. his lesson from this incident and known for staying away from freestyle open mics;

However, unfortunately, a few days after this we would see the most iconic and terrible incident in the smoke criminal's musical career. Of course, I'm talking about Tim Westwood's infamous freestyle of his. It was such a bad appearance that it got 49,000 dislikes on YouTube and Tim even had to turn off comments. Frankly, Smoke Perk owes damage to the entire hip hop community because this horrible freestyle offender jumps from beat to beat faster than Selena. Powell was in town for an all-star weekend and in the process the criminal ruins almost every good hip-hop song from the last five years.

He made the unforgettable French Montana, which was so bad he wishes he could forget it. I know they say he's toxic and cheating but I know he can change he made yogurt he put a date on it putting a date at the end of his career like today I think I feel that coochie I put my ring in her coochie I know she felt he made meek mill and Drake is going bad, a performance that sucked so much it smelled like a corpse was going bad in the trunk still, anyway, you're still any day, but I'd rather hit him from behind and then of course, can the covers of xxxtentacion who were so horrible, they would have had Frankly, proof that the ultimate in smoking weed.

What it needs is to be the center of attention because if you didn't already hate the perpetrator and think it was the most terrible thing that had ever happened to hip-hop in history, it would be almost impossible to look at this complete abomination and not think it was total garbage , but what was more ridiculous than how bad this freestyle was, was how oblivious the perp was to how much he stunk as he cut to the interview segment with my Uncle Tim, who in a very British way supervised the perp talking about juice while freestyling compared to unbearable politeness, so what do you do? you think about my freestyle craze reading relentless ok, 10 out of 10 10 out of 10. ok, ok, then juice, juice bar, i just tied you up, i just tied you up for the one hour freestyle pub, he threw his song, remember me on the same day as Tim Westwood.

Freestyle dropped an apparent attempt to branch out and make more Sun Poppy type songs. This was a good reinvention, but unfortunately the damage had already been done. Fans were more likely to remember him for his trashy freestyle than his experimental new song and clips of the criminal's

embarrassing

part. of a freestyle were beginning to spread through the hip-hop scene faster than Selena Powell's letter. Okay, I'll stop after that debacle ended up releasing his Lost Planet EP in May 2019. Being a smaller project, we didn't really hear much. about the sales figures for this, but at least it was backed by music videos for tracks like repeat, which was then followed up in May with the double hard track with nle chopper which, for the record, now has 50 million views and is one of the criminal's greatest successes. in recent history and that song was followed by the announcement of their upcoming extended project Dead Star 2.

And for a moment it seemed that Smoke Purp's resurgence was imminent, so the offenders seemed to be making much more reflective and harder songs than he. had had in the past and while some generic promo tracks like walk on water and stevie filled the ignorant trash rap quota in November, he was releasing the much more listenable dirty dirty with little skies and another sleeper hit that has close to 10 million views . on YouTube today and then in December, Purp sought the biggest shortcut he could find, making a sequel to his biggest hit to date, releasing Audi 2, a desperate attempt by the perpetrator to return to his glory days that ended up getting a mixed reception. quite mixed and a A week after Audi 2, he finally released Dead Star 2, which was announced as his debut album and his previous releases were only considered mix tapes up to this point, so this should have been a great release, an album on which apparently even two million dollars had been spent.

Label money buys beats and features most of which weren't even used and all of this includes a Kanye verse that he ended up canning because in the time between its recording and its release, Kanye had found Jebus and didn't want to release it anymore . any music he swore that track was called no problem, unfortunately it eventually leaked on YouTube anyway, the criminal described Dead Star 2 as his best work, but fans decided instead to smoke with his hand, his biggest l because the album performed very poorly compared to his. Previous outings only peaked at No. 137 on the Billboard charts and No. 86 on the Canadian charts, a brief bit of embarrassment, but the offender kept things positive and kept moving forward, releasing hard tracks like the ones that pleased me with Denzel Curry out of my mind. chest with a small bomb that came along with a very good music video inspired by an office space, he had his pen tied with jack harlow and the pop track where he highlighted his drug addiction, purple was releasing a lot of music during this period, part She was good and all this work he had been putting in did not go unnoticed by the fans who began to feel that the offender had gone from being down and overrated to underrated and deserving of more attention, combine that with the fact that eyesight counts for these tracks that I was releasing. incredibly healthy, which is why what happened next is so surprising, because the criminal launched his florida jit project in June 2020 and the sales were frankly florida because despite all the hype he accumulated in the period leading up to this project it was the project lowest selling I had ever released apparently racking up less than 5,000 sales it wasn't plastic it wasn't wood it was doubly useless it was triple fluff chosen as small anus bombs naturally legit flora didn't land on any chart unless of course you count the existential crisis graphics on the billboard, but in their defense, Smoke Pup attempted to walk back the monumental failure that was Florida Gin, reiterating to fans that this was a free project, suggesting that people had misinterpreted this 5k figure that it was Apparently the sheer sales of his album suggest that including streams equivalent to the album that had sold close to 14k is a bit of a saving grace, but frankly the damage was already done at this point, the offender was taking one of the public eles most monumental in the history of rap music.

I don't think the offender is done, of course, throughout his turbulent career he has consistently managed to rack up millions of streams for the solo songs he releases. He's still genuinely capable when it comes to making catchy hits that people can listen to with just one. What's clear is that Purpose is not and probably never will be an album artist, which is why Florida Jit will go down in history as one of the most

embarrassing
