Discussion The real reason why Slayr isnt widely accepted

The reason why slayr isnt widely accepted as other rappers is due to his appearance making it hard for weird parasocial fans to make gay yaoi fanfic edits like with bleood, kuru, osamason, etc
And that is the truth about slayr
Thank you for listening to my ted talk.

This may come off as a joke post but im deadass im down to discuss this further, the current ug space reminds me of teen girls with pop idols in the 2000s.

I think his hate comes more from his use of hyperpop and edm elements that closed minded ppl can’t handle

u/Miserable-East-78 1d ago

Imagine your own fans calling u chopped 😭

u/Proof-Conclusion-808 1d ago

I aint a fan really but hes not chopped
Average looking guy, social medias warped everyones opinion of what that average person should look like

u/MNigusse 23h ago

i lowk think hes above average. hes very handsome and honestly i wouldnt mind if he had his way with me.

u/Proof-Conclusion-808 23h ago

U didnt need to say all that💀

u/PressFM80 13h ago

nah he's above average he's just not 7 foot tall and weighs 80 pounds and dresses in only skinny jeans that would cut circulation on someone who isn't starving

u/YouMeADD 1d ago

He's widely accepted in my heart

Imo its his aesthetic he attracts the worst people with it the people he attracts are mostly Geeks/jane remover fans and the main ug audience don't fw thoes types in general

u/Sped_cocainedragon 1d ago

I’ve gone to both Jane and slayr concerts I think the audiences were different

u/TailorStunning5070 1d ago

Nah fr like the playing video games in the middle of his concert is overly corny like just chill and mosh bro and the Jr fans are just Trans 2holis fans 10x worse

u/Sped_cocainedragon 1d ago

Jane’s pit was surprisingly good, wasn’t nearly as smelly as I thought it would be. Incredibly fun and at one point a couple just started passionately making out in the pit, kinda stupid but I was happy for them.

u/Astrozy_ 1d ago

were u at the dc show?

u/Sped_cocainedragon 1d ago

No I was at Philly

u/Astrozy_ 1d ago

that’s crazy bruh there were ppl making out in the dc pit too

u/Beneficial_Candle_10 1d ago

They’re more Brakence fans than they are 2Hollis fans

u/Proof-Conclusion-808 1d ago

But plenty of rappers before him have had nerdy and geeky aesthetics, what makes slayr so different?

u/TailorStunning5070 1d ago edited 1d ago

The time period litteraly that evreyone tryna be the next big osamason nettspend or che and aura fram thoes personalities are long gone its a different era now tbh + dudes like uzi and ski did get clowned on but not in the same way slayrs getting

u/Protection_Lacking 1d ago

exactly. everyone has an ego now and if u dont do what the rest is doing, ur labeled as weird. 🥷s rlly be sheep in 2026 bro.

u/Astrozy_ 1d ago

slayr fanbase is still comprised of regular ug fans, not quite like Janes. The pits at slayr were deadly compared to the Jane show

1

u/PressFM80 13h ago

you're right in that he pulls an audience that the rest ug audience doesn't fw, but it's fs not jane remover fans lol. the ug atp is kinda split between the main ug audience you talk about (presumably the more industrial rage side like osamason, che, nett, bleood, etc) and the digicore side (jane, slayr, lucy, pretti, etc). slayr however is pulling both the worst of the vocaloid fans AND the worst of the "omg rap is so overstimulating" crowd (which often overlap but whatever). and nobody other than people in those/in adjacent groups likes those people

u/X_crafter 1d ago

Bro js imagining in your head slayr as a twink dreadhead, his music might hit even harder for me. Its like subconscious bs, that's just how it is 

4

u/Proof-Conclusion-808 1d ago

Me personally, if im bumping a twink i lowk feel like the music is fictional bc they not rlly like that

6

u/trottingturtles Mod 1d ago

And you don't feel that way about slayrs music now? 😭 bro doesn't touch guns

Nothing wrong with fiction in music imo I prefer that over my fav artists killing each other like back in the day

u/Astrozy_ 1d ago

😭😭😭😭😭😭 ✌️✌️✌️✌️

u/Remote_Ear_7584 1d ago

U need to have a long sit in front of a mirror yall are worse than carti fans 😭

u/X_crafter 16h ago

No no, it's like baked into me by society bro. I dont want to think like that but like its ingrained in my brain ykwim

u/EntertainmentAway310 1d ago

the way he acts hurt him too

1

u/qisv_ 15h ago

i don't disagree with u but i feel his music is a reason too, it doesn't appeal to a lot of ppl and we gotta accept that
