[Akademiks]

Basically says nyggas gotta earn their stripes before they are played in rotation with the big boys

He isnt wrong

 

[Zach Lowe]

Earn their stripes by being played on radio

So to be played on radio you have to be playing on radio already

Makes sense

 

[Akademiks]

Earn ya stripes to be played in the same line up as Trinidad James & Chief Keef nvm Keef is making music right now
