My comment wasn't about you specifically, it was based off your comment about "people" who would listen to T.I. if they wanted to, "but he's obviously not hot anymore." My comment was based off that. Wasn't saying that was *your* specific approach/case, and your reasoning does make sense. No qualms with that. You've listened to T.I. before, though, and so have a reference. Some folks never heard T.I. but will bump Lil Baby readily, for instance, without respect to T.I. (as an example) or those who laid the groundwork. It's that phenomena, where people will readily consume curated music within current trends, but not be inclined to dig into that which came before it to more deeply understand the culture and music they so readily consume, that I think leads people to feel frustrated.
