Is Jay Rock trying to put his music career behind the 8 ball on purpose??

Tony Yayo:whoa:...maybe the Freddie Gibbs of TDE,but not no damn Yayo:childplease:...they both make good music but don't have star written all over em. Will probably stay underground and continue to make great music.

Should be slapped for the comparison to Yayo. I would say more like Buck or Game (Without all the theatrics) if anything.

And yes, he is better than everybody in Black Hippy not named Kendrick Lamar. :yeshrug:

Jay rock is garbage

You from Grape Street aint cha? I'm kiddin breh.


Out of all the TDE camp, I heard Rock's album last, surprised me cuz I didn't expect much. Solid album though. Between that, his Money Trees verse, and his BET Cypher verse, one would think he'd be a little more active. Funny how his credibility is more established than these other artists running with the red team yet his shine isnt and maybe never will be like their's. He needs to get visible. If YG, and Nipsey can make noise, Jay Rock should be able to as well.

How can Rock be the Tony Yayo of TDE when he's better than Schoolboy, arguably better than Soul, and when he's at his best on the same level as K.Dot?
Other than that, yea I wonder what the fukk he's been up to too. He must be ghostwriting cuz Rock's work ethic VANISHED as soon as they got signed.
In 2012 :troll:
:laff: O friend.

Because TDE is being ran like a label should be ran...NO OVERSATURATION.

You got a couple Black Hippy remixes and some loose tracks. When the projects drop, you'll be anticipating them.
There is no such thing anymore.

That's the exact reason that every other post in the prediction thread has a line at Future losing his fans. It's also the reason 2 Chainz didn't do well his second time around even though his second album was better than his first.

The last 3 years or so are the only times in the last 20 years I can remember being flat out sick of hearing certain rappers...even the ones who music I enjoy.

I remember 50 asking the same question about himself when conversing with a late night host, can't remember who, but back then he was doing just a little too much for a while there. Kinda took the mystique away from his personal brand cuz he became a caricature of himself. It definitely played a role if even minor into why people lost interest in him.
