I'm in NY and no they don't get play and most kids are listening to A Boogie.

They're over 30 and make music that reflects that. I listen to them and I've put several people onto them but we're all 30 and up and like that Ka/Roc Marci music. They'll always be underground but I can see them getting some features especially Conway. I know the Good Music camp is fukking with them. They're ceiling is probably Freddie Gibbs or Currency. They'll carve out a niche and eat off of a cult following.

Who gets play and who doesn't has no reflection on the quality of music.
I agree with this I don't think nobody here is disagreeing with this...

They cool they have a demographic they appeal to

I don't understand some of you old heads, because you'll be complaining about mumble rappers and how no one is trying to rap and make good music

Along comes to new guys....might not be the best subject wise, but it's new, raw, TRADITIONAL, music and yet you complain about them not having club bangers or not having beats with drums:dwillhuh:

This is how I know it's true when people on here say that you older fans only like an artist when they collab with someone you like or hit mainstream

id like to think most of their fans appreciate, some weird comments in here

dude said their ceiling is Cormega, he been around 20 years, can collab with pretty much any east vet he wants to, and can tour anytime he wants to. WSG and Conway would take that any day of the week, theres nothing wrong with being a working artist not everyone gonna sell millions of records. they stick to the formula pretty damn well, dunno what ppl want

Nike mags glow when I tip toe

Half my shooters sniff coke
With no aim, you better get low
lettermans with a Tec in it....:blessed:

little nikkas worrying about something for the club:laff:

"I can be your eye in the sky
I'll fly you away":ahh:


If people hit the club on a Friday or Saturday what do they listen to the rest of the week?:jbhmm: Brehs take the club home with them and party seven days a week:wow:

Seriously though I'm not opposed to dancing but different music for different settings. I play Conway and Gunn at the gym. Always play Mr. T as I walk through the doors :birdman:

Enough of that though I'm about to enjoy this Dom Perignon, lobster, and fried rice:eat:

Lmao @ the clowns saying no one bumps west and conway in NYC. I know a good 10-15 nikkas in the bronx alone who are all bumping griselda right now what the fukk are you talking about? NYC cats are def fukking with them, doesnt matter if they are from buffalo. If you fukk with real spitters why does it matter if they from your city or not as long as they coming with the real?

And these dudes are still underground as fukk. Give them a push so us "old nikkas" are actually aware and they'll gain much more support. Plus us "old nikkas" actually have money :blessed:

Dudes put in a serious amount of groundwork over the last couple of years they deserve every success.
When Conway's album drops all the people hating will have to fall back, shyts gonna be crazy
Crazy thing is I don't really hear no one hating. Everyone I know that listens to hip hop respects what they put down

It's like 3 nikkas in here talkin down amongst a bunch of old heads who're at their necks, breh.

I guess it's true that you young nikkas are quick to make snap judgements without investigating your claims first..
