Rappers Who Faked Their Entire Image
One famous example of a rapper who faked their entire image is Rick Ross. He claimed to have been involved in drug trafficking and criminal activities, but it was later revealed that he had worked as a correctional officer before pursuing a career in music.
Another example is Tekashi 6ix9ine, who portrayed himself as a tough street gang member, but it was later discovered that he had no real connections to any gangs and was using his image for publicity and shock value.
It’s important for artists to be authentic and true to themselves, as fans can often see through fake personas and will ultimately respect honesty and genuineness more than a manufactured image.
