Pharrell Williams in a singer, producer, songwriter who debuted his first album, "In My Mind" in 2006.  Pharrell is also a fashion designer. He is well known in the industry, especially for his hit single "happy". I would say Tory's album "Alone At Prom" is inspired by some of the work Pharrell did with artist like Daft Punk.

Just like Tory Lanez, T-pain when recording would use a lot of auto tune and I must say T-pain is probably the king of using auto tune in his songs.
When I would listen to Tory, I can hear how he uses the auto tune and how he would sing similar to T-pain.

Although R.Kelly is seen to many as somebody who lacks morals, I chose to not look at what he did with his lifestyle but to look at all the musical pieces he has done. I would say he is arguably one of the greatest rhythm and blues artist of this generation. His music prowess was well known throughout the industry and he definitely inspired people like Tory Lanez and you can see that in Tory's music. Tory does a lot of singing and fuses it with his rap, almost creating his own genre in music.

Future is an Atlanta born rapper, singer and songwriter. His style of rap is similar to Juice’s in that he is telling his story through his music, naturally like every other artist who makes music today. The thing that WRLD and Future have in common when it comes to the music they make, is that when Future was making music, it mostly stemmed from his use of drugs, mainly lean or formally known as codeine cough syrup. In an interview, Juice WRLD mentioned that he wanted to be like Future in terms of doing lean and smoking weed.

Tory Lanez is a Canadian American rapper, singer, songwriter, who specializes in hip hop and R&B/soul. His work is honestly top notch. The way he translates his everyday lifestyle to his music is incredible. The process in which he makes music as well is also incredible. In a video I had watched recently, Tory was on a livestream and he was recording some music. I got to experience what process he goes through and it is something special. As he was recording, he never wrote down anything nor did he read anything. He used his head, quite literally. He used a method a lot of these artist nowadays use which is freestyling. I am yet to unlock that power for myself but it is something I aspire to do.

Juice world was one of the most influential artists of this generation. His style of music derives from punk, rock, hip hop and emo rap. Growing up he taught himself how to play drums piano and guitar. Throughout his music, we can clearly see the use of these instruments. His style involves a lot of melodies that you wouldn't otherwise see in hip hop. For me personally, Juice represented how I have been going through life. I am not saying that we have had the same lifestyle but his feelings and emotions through his songs is what I relate to the most. He was a very troubled and depressed individual who expressed that through his music, and I definitely relate to his pain.
