The END of Rap's Most Overhyped Superstar | Jack Harlow

Catch us on Spotify! https://open.spotify.com/show/033yaNzaBMQuYHC4jqKu74?si=RBIGHIoYQv6euY3dzzed1w Jack Harlow had a Diamond record, three number-one singles and a Hollywood movie role. Then one sentence on a podcast, "I got Blacker," set off the backlash that sank his new album Monica before it even came out. Here's how hip-hop's golden boy ended up as the internet's favourite punchline. From selling CDs at his Louisville middle school to "What's Poppin," "Industry Baby," "First Class" and "Lovin on Me," Jack Harlow's rise was one of the fastest in modern rap. But behind the hits, the cracks kept growing. There was the Drake verse that outshone him on his own album, the Kentucky Derby video, the NBA camera stunt, the NFL halftime show, his comments after Megan Thee Stallion was shot, and a lawsuit he was later dismissed from. Then came Monica, a neo-soul reinvention that debuted at number 40, the worst opening of his career. #JackHarlow #hiphop #rapperdrama
