as in fans who are dedicated to one artist and everything they make.

id say theres a lot of people here who can talk about jay-z or nas discographies, all their albums back to back, but theres not many rappers who can generate those convos - less people are likely to have every dmx album, or on the underground, have every coup album. and then if they do, its a smaller convo - and you can still have convos on here about guys like rakim, or krs, or masta ace, with people who have followed them through all their albums, its just a smaller convo with core fans.

but hip hop isnt really the kind of genre to inspire that kind of fandom i dont think, def not anymore, not unless its drake or maybe kanye were talking about. albums dont cut it that much these days, and hip hop has always been cut throat when it comes to fans dropping you after youve lost your edge.
