Better promotion wouldn't help him, he is just not good enough.

Da fuq am I reading? Have you even listened to him? He has potential to make it big, he just needs to catch on.

You're reading a post that is about as worthwhile as anything else ImHungry has ever said here. Some people aren't intelligent enough to contribute anything in a normal fashion, so they resort to trolling exclusively.

His next post will probably verify my point. Or it won't, and he'll actually say something worth reading for the first time since he's joined the forum.

Like everyone said, poor promotion. No one outside of hip hop heads really know who yelawolf is. Should've pushed hard white harder, it had potential.

True.

On topic:
1.His music doesn't appeal to everyone.
2.Wrong choices of singles.
3.He is 30+.Thats too old to make a debut for this stupid generation. :shakehead:

Yelawolf is a better performer than MGK, and engages the crowd much more in my opinion at the age of 30, and I believe MGK is 20 years younger. I compared these two because they bring the most energy performing now a days (however, MGK in my opinion sucks in nearly every other aspect of being a musical artist, not just rapping, and I just don't like him personally. He seems so fake its not even funny). I mean Drake is in his 20s and being out done by Yelawolf on stage. I think that age won't hold Yelawolf back even if it's a factor now a days. Besides, Yelawolf looks to me like he 20.
