The biggest he's been in years :dame: and they want to shelve him? :dwillhuh:
they got a phone call. There is no way an artist being on one of the hottest shows in the urban market(not the best, but one of the hottest) and NOW a label decides to hold up his release. Someone put in the call and said, "if this shyt comes out now, you won't work with my artists again...". It happens more in the industry than you know about.

That's a stretch.

They not moving on him because of his metrics vs. their investment in him. I like Joey but there is no one outside of the label trying to hold his career back.

Nah, Lupe fiasco, and Black thought are 2 of my favorite rappers and ...shyt, I guess they ARE street and struggle...

Shyt,I guess you right.

Cause I don't Fck with J Cole, Drake or Nyggas like joyner Lucas and Dax...no Rappers with white mamas or Facebook rappers.


I have absolutely ZERO Relation to them Nyggas

Literally no better time to put his shyt out. I don’t listen to him and would’ve gave it a chance off the hype from the battle. Labels suck
This.

It's the most JBA I heard in the past decade was cause the battle, labels ate habitual ball dropping fakkits who can't capitalize off the attention.
