Max is that nigga u leave in the hood when ur career takes off….
i’m guessin he will be nowhere in sight on the album….but they’ll continue to do mixtapes
April 14th, 2009 at 8:37 pm
As long as French keeps getting beats like New York Minute he’ll succeed fa sho.
–He won’t. For mixtapes maybe but those types of beats cost or takes too much time.
============================
It’s actually exactly the opposite. that beat was made by some unknown producer trying to get on & Frenchie prolly copped it for the low. The Diplomats & G-Unit use unknown cats all the time.

^sounds to me like niggas got BIG fucking plans for Frenchie. dont’ get me wrong, I fucks with French a little something, but it ain’t gonna happen. if he proves me wrong though, cool.

Umm should Max b really be on a track called Stick Up Kidz when he’s due to go on trial for being a Stick Up Kid?? SMDH “When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong”

I don’t think Frenchie will ever hit the airwaves. Max will though.
Max is destined for greatness.
April 14th, 2009 at 8:45 pm
If this was an oddisee only album i’d download but im not in the mood to listen to weed carriers right off the bat.
April 14th, 2009 at 8:46 pm
Max isn’t a stick up kid. He put the batteries in that bitches back and told her to bring him back money.

>>^sounds to me like niggas got BIG fucking plans for Frenchie. dont’ get me wrong, I fucks with French a little something, but it ain’t gonna happen. if he proves me wrong though, cool.
^The way the industry is structured, no one is gonna do 50 numbers again. But that doesn’t mean Frenchie won’t see success by current standards. I mean shit, if Jada did 100K for first week numbers, that’s fuckin’ great compared to today’s standard. I think Frenchie can do better than that.
>>oh no?
“as much as NY has fallen off, the country still wants to embrace an NY nigga”
^So you’re sayin’ they don’t? If that’s what you’re sayin’ then I beg to differ. East Coast aint got NO new niggas in the mainstream right now that’s really having major success. Emphasis on “new”.

–Idk

===========================
Max is destined for 30 years.
And NY Minute is strong enough to get burn on NYC radio right now.

it’s like niggas can’t think of anythin else but to rhyme condo with toronto damn!

^Come on dawg. You can name a track ANYTHING, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s incriminating evidence. If that’s the case, Uncle Murda should be a lifer by now.

NY Minute would already be on the radio if it was gonna catch on…all the DJs have it obviously.
Max has wavy legal status. He will avoid the pen.
April 14th, 2009 at 8:49 pm
>>I think Frenchie can do better than that.
so you think French can outsell Kiss? what in the world would ever make you think that? that nigga better get a ‘Ballin’ level single or else it will never ever happen.
April 14th, 2009 at 8:49 pm
“as much as NY has fallen off, the country still wants to embrace an NY nigga”
^^
Es as usual throwin shots under the radar…
no even mentioned Curtis’ name.
NY doesn’t really have any new rap stars right now. Akon and Pain have proven themselves to be hitmakers, repeatedly. I would be surprised if French didnt get a handful of serious singles under his belt courtesy of Konvinct
conflatin ass nigga
April 14th, 2009 at 8:49 pm
I got another French and Max song by the way, about to go in. walk with me.

=========================
Not true. If you think that’s how it works, you’re very naive.
April 14th, 2009 at 8:50 pm
>>conflatin ass nigga
you niggas are gassed off the wave movement. again, if French and Max prove me wrong, cool, but I don’t see them blowing outside the tristate, n/h. not on any major level at least.
April 14th, 2009 at 8:51 pm

Just like Red Cafe, Dollar & Rock City, right?
