The seperation between what's fake and what's real
he shouldnt sign with anybody he should just keep grinding deal game dead to be honest
that shyt did sound forced, but he licked that shot anyway
Ehhh doesnt really work out of new york, you cant survive as an independent new york artist... the infrastructure isnt built for that. Anyways I wish him luck I guess, maybe he can get the independent thing to work for him, but i am pretty sure i saw an interview where he was talking about trying to get signed, but waiting for the right deal not just any deal.

Nah he gotta blow on his own....I mean he survivng now as an independent New York right now aint he?
lol @ signing to 50 in 2013
troy does need to go for a major deal tho maybe roc nation or even puff
i mean getting 50 on a bunch of hooks and doing verses and throwing up g unit in 2013 is a bad idea for a new artist
signing to aftermath under 50 and getting his investment and executive production of hit records may not be a bad idea for an artist like troy ave who is trying to go the same route as 50 and has a very similar style...
roc nation... could be...
puff... eh puff has plenty of talent already who dont get release dates i wouldnt want to jump on that ship...
as for staying independent, dude 50 at his prime, with 10 mixtapes out, probably the hottest grassroots phenom in the last 15 years, was broke living in his grandma basement until he signed to aftermath, you need certain structures to succeed as an independt artist and new york just doesnt have those structures... ask yourself who was the last independent artist from nyc you heard of?
I can see his similarity to early 50 but you know damn well if that happened fif would be all up in the songs videos etc because hes struggling to stay relevant his damn self...look at his artists 'precious paris' and 'kidd kidd' who he tried to push but got nowhere...as a buzzin NY artist it would be the worst move he could make and guaranteed theres a lot more relevant labels knockin at his door
if french and mgk can get release dates troy ave could get one on bad boy
I think the problem with Troy is that, even tho he makes dope ass music. He does not really "fit" in with this new generation of rappers. So labels are not gonna be fiending to throw a big bag of money at him. He will do Pusha T numbers at best.
What I think he needs to do is either link with a Def Jam or Interscope straight. And then just personally build his connections with Fab,Push,G-unit,Maino etc. And gun for being a Meek Mill type rapper. Who puts up 100,000 with sales. But has a strong following in the street, which will help him constantly get shows.
Any other method is gonna end up in failure. Troy will never be a hipster/backpacker/mainstream america darling.
