Despite YoungBoy’s fiercely loyal fanbase and commanding concert presence, Vlad argues that his music remains niche, lacking the crossover pop appeal that propels artists to global superstardom. Unlike Drake, Nicki, and Lil Wayne, who have successfully blended hip-hop with mainstream pop, YoungBoy stays true to his raw, street-oriented sound without chasing chart-topping hits or major collaborations. Vlad also noted YoungBoy’s nontraditional marketing approach, frequently dropping music that fans consume at their own pace rather than relying on big promotional pushes. While this strategy grants YoungBoy artistic freedom and a dedicated following, Vlad believes it limits his potential to reach the international pop status of his peers. Ultimately, Vlad respects YoungBoy’s unique career path, emphasizing that commercial size isn’t the only measure of success in music today.
