Rapper Blueface‘s post, which was a terse and enigmatic statement concerning his career in the music industry, was enough to draw attention from his fans. The phrase ‘The face of this shhh’, plainly put, made it possible to talk about the rapper’s current standing in the music scene and what kind of image he has now. The comment section was nearly immediately filled with a variety of most supporters, some funny, and the direct interaction of artists’ followers.

Moreover, he did not shed light on his statement and hence, the observers of the post came up with different interpretations. Most of the audience who got the post as a chance to still express their love for the musician. One user was like super encouraging, saying ‘Rise and shine 💪💪💪👏👏👏 good vibes only!!!!’ Another supporter, however, different, still conveyed the same thinking with a more intimate approach of ‘Good Job! Pray you win my brother.’
Despite the above, a good part of the topic turned to jokes, as different commentators likened Blueface to a certain dog breed. One person punned, ‘Blue is rlly the golden retriever 😭 💯,’ and the other supporter replied right away, ‘Golden retriever gang gang 😂.’ No doubt, the humorous comparison attracted many and amplified the loyal and lively facet of his personality.
Besides the fun, the comments were at times bizarre and business-like. An account, with a rather complex username made up of musical symbols, was the one that constantly posted promotional messages like, ‘WE ARE TAKING ARTIST TO THE TOP OF THE CHARTS WITH EASE ! 🔥🔥🔥’ and ‘WE RUN IT VIRAL EVERYTIME 🔥🔥.’ This then created a conversation as some users were much more concerned with the username than the promotion itself, with one asking, ‘yo wtf is that username’ and another simply saying, ‘need that user.’
An even more direct and personal communication happened when one user begged for money, saying, ‘Can u help me with 40dollars blue…🔥’ This one comment provoked a very heated discussion among the other users. One person showed no mercy and wrote, ‘grown man asking for sum bread get a job.’ The guy who asked for money justified his need by saying it was ‘To finish paying off my rent,’ and then a user took the opportunity to give a sarcastic comment, ‘Blud finna go cop a 7 😂.’ The debate went on and there were people tossing around the requester’s motives.
All these happenings even led some to make comments drawing parallels between Blueface’s career length, support and side conversations. To one of them, the guy who said this demystified his career saying, ‘Cuh been going hard since released 😂🔥,’ to which the contestant added a sarcastic comment about another rapper, ‘And Pooh Shiesty still aint dropped nun.’ This pointed out how fans usually compare artists’ output and their careers’ length to each other. Mixing both pride and defiance, another supporter shouted, ‘👌🏾👌🏾tell dem mfs u write the way and that’s it.’
