But Stalley is getting no play WITH the MMG affiliation...
meh, i personally feel like Meek and Wale benefitted because they came in together and it was while the movement was beginning.last summer nikkas really anticipated Self Made and the songs/videos they were putting on n youtube were anthems that attracted the public.Stalley came in alone after all that shyt died down pretty much.
You cant act like Wale and Meek didnt get great exposure that song and more importantly they were able to craft their own anthems: I'm a Boss and Bait after they were introduced. Stalley came in relatively quietly in comparison and as we know doesnt have the most appeal to begin with. But to say he's trash is foolery.
I'll take tracks like Petrin Hill Peonies, Hammers & Vogues, Sound of Silence and Assassin over Meeks catalogue. I personally still play LWN without skipping a track, but outside of Traumatized i doubt I'll ever play another Meek Mill song ever again.
And Rick Ross would agree, I would bet good money that Rick Ross has a fit listening to LWN and shyt. He wouldnt sign Stalley if he was trash.
