what happens to rappers after there "hype" ?

well..its an easy guess they either flop or get established. one person in particular that came out of his hype period established was[drum roll]........

DRAKE!

everybody remembers the "so far gone" era of 09...it all started with the song "ransom" feat. lil wayne. that was when people set out an ear for who drake really was, even before ransom he was hot but this is when his buzz started getting up. then after ransom he dropped his critically acclaimed mixtape titled "so far gone" with more hits on it then most albums (best i ever had, successful, uptown, houstatlantavegas..etc) and then out of nowhere everywhere you heard best i ever had was on the radio, on peoples myspace status's, on there ipods, myspace pages and everywhere along with successful. then a little after that he started featuring on everyones track and then sprouted into this established artist that has expectations that are never let down, which comes into this period of his career where fans are highly anticipating his album like the space jams before they came out.
i think his album wont let no fan down and will bring the regular greatness that drake always makes.

now moving into a artist that flopped in 09(drumroll...again)

GUCCI! MANE!

im sorry but this man is a flop...from his speech impediment to him never having a blanket(BUR!). i personally tried giving him a chance and downloaded a mixtape and gave it a listen, just to see what was the hype behind him with all the features and shit.
the only thing i came to like about gucci mane is that his phrases are catchy(GUCCI, BUR!!!!BUR!!!BUR!!!) other then that his work ethic is unrespectable because all he makes is trash music, not trap...TRASH!. his word play i really cant understand him thanks to speech impediment, it really confuses me alot. his album was anticipated by alot of people and guess what? it FLOPPED. even though i dont like the fact hes in jail due to a stupid probation violation, thats still not enough sympathy for me to like him.
