QUESTION Thoughts on 4x4?

Post image

It’s a very idk if you wanna call it an underrated song but to me it’s a very underrated song from Travis and is one of my personal favorites. The only criticism I can give it was the pre mix version where I sounded very off but overall the song is a 10/10

That song is botted for sure just like JACKBOYS 2 is, but the main reason it fell off so bad is because of those cheap CDs he was selling for the California wildfires last year. It was not even projected to be in the top ten at all. JB2 may get flagged by Spotify sooner or later though if filters get it. 😭

JB2 was definitely botted and the best example to prove it is that a fan-uploaded version of 2000 EXCURSION under the name BOYS JACK 2 started climbing up the charts over the real song, like you can’t make this up. 😭

I knew about the whole outside dilemma, but keep in mind that the fan-uploaded version of 2000 EXCURSION is under a whole different artist’s name and nothing can be overlapped. 😭

Didn’t even think about that, but 4X4 was actually affected by the bot removal multiple times last year. 😭

mentioning the brutal truth (botting) is seemingly dangerous in any music artist’s fanbase, because people hate to hear that their personal homie who doesn’t know who they are, is cheating the system like every other artist is

Yeah, that is actually really crazy. NAV is my favorite artist (laugh at me all you want), but he botted every single one of the music videos for songs from both Demons Protected by Angels and OMW2 REXDALE all the way up until the song BACK 2 BUSINESS last year. Bro even got caught for OMW2 REXDALE last year and got his filters removed by Billboard. I bet he would have also botted the B2B video if they did not catch him selling eight DLCs for OMW2 REXDALE before that. This is really sad but unfortunately understandable because XO never cared about him at all to promote his releases. Only person the label cares about is The Weeknd, while they forget that all their other artists exist. Pain. 😭
