Kendrick Lamar‘s verses on Big Sean‘s track “Control (HOF)” blew up the internet last week and the effects of his rapid-fire rap game namechecking are still being felt. Aside from a number of rather meh-worthy responses, the artists that Kendrick mentioned have seen significant changes in their social media followings.
According to the research done by BBE Booking Agency, Lamar may have boosted relatively niche artist Big KRIT to a much higher level in mainstream hip-hop culture. Not only that, but the overall effect of the song seems to be shining the spotlight on Jay Electronica in a way that’s never been seen before. Check out the gallery above to see each relevant rapper’s growth on their social channels.
