Never got into him or Premo Rice, but I was a fan of Dom Kennedy back in the day so I get the appeal.

I'm the same way with Currency too. I feel Cole's music 10x's more than those 2. Sucks that the beef actually over shadowed how dope Might Delete Later is

Roddy’s problem was his 1st project was too successful, it takes a special talent or team around em to follow up n don’t think he got either of those ….Everything after was destined to disappoint like Bryson Tilller
Lil baby predictably sold out for commercial money so folks moved on from him, yo had a legit fan base but he never cared bout that …And Him/Durk/Meek decided to have their owner lil super friend group which watered down their solo stuff

This girl I went on a date with some years back was surprisingly a Larry June fan like me and she said some real ish that perfectly describes Larry’s music. She said, Larry doesn’t really have bars, but he raps about fly stuff and makes it sound dope w his voice and delivery.

He also knows how to network. Which is why he always ends up on projects, gets dope beats etc.

I was literally about to bring us Bryson Tiller. Trapsoul is 1/1 and he’ll never get close to that again.

My brother was telling me a lot of the young popular rappers drugged out like crazy. Not showing up for shows and meetings. Stealing money from promoters. I can’t remember if Roddy was one of them cause I don’t listen to that trash but he said it’s mad of them doing that ****.

RECAP: Lollapalooza 2021, Day Two | Breaking And Entering
A trip of hip hop heavy hitters were the focal point of day two in Grant Park.

Roddy didn't headline but he was one of the last 3 major acts. This is right after his first album despite the fact that he couldn't tour for most of 2020.
Obviously he could be lying but Roddy admitted to making 500k a show at his peak (this was during an interview on the Joe Budden Podcast). I doubt this was to be a traditional opener and to play 5 or so songs.
Roddy Ricch Posts Receipts Proving He Earned $500,000 for Festival Performance
Roddy Ricch has confirmed that he earns $500,000 per festival performance after fans questioned his claim during a recent interview with Joe Budden
This was the only site I found with a good list of his previous tours.
Roddy Rich Concert & Tour History | Concert Archives
Roddy Rich tours & concert list along with photos, videos, and setlists of their live performances.
You can kinda see they were grouping Roddy with some really big names. Even back in 2021 (Lalapalooza) the only person who looks to have performed after him was Tyler the Creator (who is one of the biggest names in rap both then and now).
As for the superstar thing I think the archetype has changed. Drake is damn near a create a player but his background doesn't exactly scream rap superstar. A lot of people found Cole boring for the first half of his career, it took more than GKMC for Kendrick to become what he is today. All I'm saying is there was a time when Roddy was in consideration (same as Chance).
EDIT: Forgot to add in the Lil Nas X comparison, Roddy subject matter is obviously way different. LNX caught a lick by making a song that appealed to children, so in some ways he used a hell of a cheat code but I don't even think his aim was ever to be taken serious.
Roddy was one of the last people to collaborate with Nip. I can only guess that he had some carryover success from that alone. When Roddy was on top I remember tons of comments about how Nip would've been so proud of him etc...

Roddy's first album was
They can keep that ****. Him and Dom Kennedy.
Funny thing is I didn't really care for Dom when he was a NT brother. I like him better now.
I guess taste change.
