people need to stop running with this false narrative, theres plenty of rappers out there from NY at that who make similar music as troy ave and didnt go about it by being a delusional annoying fukkboy and therefore they dont get slandered like troy ave does
troys actions are the reason people dont fukk with him, hipsters, regular nikkas, street nikkas.. all kinds of people dont fukk with troy and it has nothing to do with him not being a "weirdo rapper" as he would call it or making street music.. funny thing is he's the weirdest nikka out today

Were they calling out his outlandish behavior or his music though? So why are you arguing when they are saying what you said in your post but expanding on it.
And if anything Troy Ave is the industry plant, dude has been on MTV, BET and all these commercial sources without moving any units and not having any hits.
Look at how certain people took offense when the best player in basketball called himself the best player in basketball. Then you can imagine how people feel when a dude who is not even top 20 of his generation is talking about himself as if he's Lebron of the game. I'm not going say that it would be like Kwame Brown talking like Muhammed Ali but as if Trevor Ariza was talking like Ali
. Then people have the right to write about your by benchmarking you to greatness and you'll get shytted on.

i dont like troy but you dont fukk with that NYC album? shyt is decent.
Troy's shyt got a much better review than Makonnen.I think he's corny but it's cornier how the white bloggers are so mad and have banded together to shyt on him. I wonder if it's because he dissed that dude from Noisey or because his mans tried to punch Makonnen
They make some good points about dudes like Rob Markman from MTV being in on it (he was doing bookings for Troy Ave's manager)

This is the dude that wrote the article. Not a whiteboy but lemme present this without commentary
The answer is his twitter and his interviews about himself, can't be anything else.
If you want to be loud you better come correct (see Pac, Floyd, Ali or to a lesser degree Kanye for references).
I agree. They don't hate him because he said he's the first NY rapper to rap about drugs. They don't hate him because he's always talking greasy about "weirdo" rappers who sell 10 times the units he sells. They don't hate him because he's a 100% delusional moron who you can tell just started listening to rap in the Lil Wayne era.
They hate him because he's not whitewashed.
Right
You nikkas and your corny ass one dimensional elementary theories..anything to face the facts f why people don't like him
Plenty of arrogant against the grain folks we loved.....Ali......Kanye.....PAC......
Troy Driveway is not one of those people
Get it through your thick hood DVD true religion jean branded skulls
a 20 dude can slap a kid 10 times and people will say "yall only hate him cuz he's confident and it makez yall feel insecure" as if he didn't slap a kid 10 times. it's like a braindead automated robot excuse to cape for any of these bytch ass "street" rappers
Reading this makes me laugh about the "ASAP Rocky a plant" criticisms. As though New York media had any idea who Rocky was and expected him to crush buildings.
You want to see what an NY-created plant looks like? Troy Ave.
I have no hate for dude. He's just cornball trash. It doesn't help that his face is punchable and not appealing to young cats like a Kendrick/J Cole/Drake. And looks matter more than anything, especially in modern hip hop. Add that to an aggressive attitude (which is not in style AT ALL), and you'll have people saying he needs to

He makes good music. People just hate on him too much. But after this breakfast club interview you can tell he straight up studies everything 50 does. He gave the exact same answers 50 would. "I can up hustling so everything I do I bring it back to hustling mentality that's what I was thorguht " ok if u folow 50 you know he said this same shyt mad times but block instead of hustler. And this thing about he the one that told people to not rock addidas with nikes and js. Whattt???????????? Seems like he's trying extra hard for the camera now. Whatever well see whY happens I don't wanna see any thoro dude fail

What is goofball about Vince? His music is wayyyyy more relatable than Troy Aves
Lmfao at claiming Vince staples is a goofball industry plant when there's 10x more evidence for that argument to be made about Troy out
When Troy Ave dropped NYC album he was signed to def jam claiming to be indie
Vince has 1 liners more real and honest than Troy aves entire discography and rap "I sold mad bricks" persona
