Bobby Shmurda opens up to his fans
On Sunday (June 1), Bobby updated his fans on Instagram about new music. Fans have repeatedly begged the rapper to release some new tracks since he was released from prison in February 2021.
However, in a Instagram CaptionBobby has expressed his belief that streaming services will not promote his music because he refuses to alter his appearance and paint his nails.
“Stop asking me to quit music. American DSPs and music blogs they own also don’t allow real Bodman on playlists because I don’t paint my fingers so it’s pointless so until something is done with the people who own, run and manage these platforms,” Bobby wrote.
Social media reacts to Bobby’s statement
The Roomies immediately reacted to Bobby’s statement in The Shade Room comments section. Several social media users agreed with his point of view and respected his stance.
Instagram user @divinequeenofalltrades_ wrote, “He gave you all a complete message about the industry and the media and you all missed it.”
Instagram user @therealfatdanny wrote, “Pay attention, the music industry is trying to popularize the feminization of men and he’s saying he doesn’t agree.”
@mocha313 added, “Nothing goes unnoticed by anyone 😂😂😂 people know what he’s saying and we all hear music from male artists who aren’t making it and still have shows/fans/and songs dropping. He just uses this as an excuse for his joints NOT to do numbers. He suffered that blow, went to prison and the momentum was lost. The same people acting like we were missing the messages, the same people talking about how he was moving when he first came out with his “black boy joy” tip.
As Instagram user @hailyeahtv wrote, “Kanye tried to tell us. Katt Williams tried to tell us!! When you go, wake up, dammit!
Then Instagram user @theimaninahje wrote: “Basically he’s not going to fit into the Hollyweird schedule.”
@kdnthadon said, “I listen to it, but there are a lot of rappers thriving without it on all different levels… Future Baby Gunna Boogie, etc.”
Instagram user @_ddotc wrote, “He’s really making a good point. Respect his stance.”
Instagram user @prettynitti_villain wrote: “That’s why I still listen to the music I grew up listening to, I can’t even tell you who’s the hottest right now, I’m fine.”
@terencesampsonjr added, “Nah, bro, your song just wasn’t a hit like that hit you had.”
More about Shmurda’s music
This isn’t the first time Bobby Shmurda has shared his thoughts on music. In 2022, the ‘Hot Boy’ musician stated that he no longer wanted to be associated with the “rapper” label.
He made his comment during an Instagram Live in December 2021. He openly stated: “I don’t want to be named a rapper anymore.”
Shmurda further elaborated by saying that rap puts people in unfortunate situations too often. He used as an example Tory Lanez, who is currently serving a prison sentence for shooting and wounding Megan Thee Stallion.
“It’s like when you do that rapper shit, niggas try to come after that light. It’s just unpleasant, how unpleasant these labels are. Look what they just did to Tory. That shit is nasty, my bro. This shit is nasty.
