You know where I'm from.
NY hasn't dropped an album better than J- Hus Common Sense, Nines - One Foot Out, Sampha- Process this year.
L-O-N-D-O-N
4:44 was blassic but dudes over 45 years old don't count. All BS aside, NYC the home of legends and innovators, I'm really comparing it to itself. It's not impressive right now relative to what it was. Cardi B your most poppin young rapper.

nikka check london before you question NYC. You never had a legacy as great as ours and still dont. J-who?Nines who? nikkas dont care about thay shyt. Sampha is dope but lets keep it real he a singing nikka.
NY>Uk when it comes to rap.
You question them rappers from uk in your city before you try to throw stones at NY you glass house living, tea sipping, crumpet eating, queen clit licking mother fukker. I wanna take a shyt in your keyboard so you can never use it again you forrest gump mother fukker.
NYC got Dave East, Asap, Cardi B, Jay, and so much more. We got greatness coming but you got to wait. Stop hating on my city, this is a warning.

You're a Mexican. I'm black. Don't speak on hip hop.
I thought I had your Mexican stalking ass on mute.
Let me fix that. Blassic.

Cardi's music isn't really my thing. I don't FW female rappers, period. Just can't do it.
But if you don't respect Cardi's hustle and position in the game than you're just a hater, flat out. If you're from NY you know there are like half a million girls exactly like Cardi out there, everywhere. If you're from the city you know a "Cardi" personally. Seeing Cardi make it is like seeing the "every man" make it. Her winning is a big win for all of NYC and for girls across the world.
Her glow-up has been inspiring, even for me as a dude. To see someone go from community college to a bentley in like 4 years just off of being themselves is crazy. It's weird bc Cardi's special but also there's nothing really special about her at the same time. Because everyone knows a girl like that - always funny, brings the energy, lights up/owns whatever room they walk into. She parlayed just being herself into super-stardom. I don't like the Nikki comparisons or any comparison really because Cardi's in a whole different lane; she's not a rapper, she's a personality who happens to rap.
In a couple years she'll still be killing it and still be in the public eye but I guarantee she won't be rapping anymore. Clothing, makeup lines, acting and maybe a popular single every now and again, but that's just going to be a vehicle to push her other shyt
We just witnessed a glow-up like no other. Girl was working as a cashier and now she's building an empire. If you're a purist and think she's trash as an artist, fine...but that's your fault for getting it twisted the same way as people got it twisted when the Drake v. Meek thing was going down, acting surprised at Drake without realizing he's a POP star who happens to use rap as a platform, NOT a MC... ppl gotta start recognizing lanes and stop thinking just because rap is involved everyone's on the same damn highway.

You grew up playing soccerYou're a Mexican. I'm black. Don't speak on hip hop.
I thought I had your Mexican stalking ass on mute.
Blassic.
This is that bullshyt that we shouldn't let slide. You basically just acknowledged that she hasn't blown up because of her "hustle" or talent. She's been handpicked by the industry to be successful. This "come up" is not organic it's been orchestrated. One doesn't have to be a hater to point that out.
She reperesents the lack of integrity in the hip hop community and I don't see that as being something to respect.

Wait, are you really Mexican? Can't knock him for playing soccer, y'all Mexicans love soccer...You grew up playing soccer

Truthfully ain't no come up organic. Even if you created your own buzz. The only way these labels gonna let you have true creative freedom and your own masters is if you can afford to pay it before you make your run. Like put up millions of dollars for your own marketing campaign and not using theirs Which is basically impossible and hasn't been done. Requires too much foresight and too many floating variables.
Cool story.

Handpicked by the industry. Cardi b blew herself up from instgram.
