Bragging rights goes along image. NY has this mentality that they want the next BIG/ Jay-Z who can have a nice flow, brag about :duck: , and have the streets on lock. basically Tupac and Puff image rolled into one.
or maybe just a modern day Jay Z that represents the arrogant haughty, yet conflicted and sorrowful street nikka :manny:

That is what made NY Hip Hop thrive: originality. And the Jay-Z clones are gonna be the death of yall. People hate saigon cause he wants people to see there is a better way. The average Troy Ave listener wants you to be a Jay-Z 2.0 (or a BIG 3.0) :mjpls:

I respect Troy Ave cause I can tell he puts effort into releasing quality music. Its not my ultimate preference in music but clearly he tries to do quality in the particular style he does. He doesnt throw out a bunch of music just to have his name out there, and you can tell he puts effort into quality control.

I dont respect Troy Ave cause he CLEARLY is tracing 50 cent whole entire flow, vocal inflection, content, even in interviews. I mean some songs he stays in the 'influenced' by 50 cent lane, which is cool for a dude his age. Other songs he is straight up doing 50 cent studio reference tracks.

That nikka do sound like 50 but he sounds like the young 50 before he blew up, back when 50 was that nikka

ASAP Nast kinda weak 2 me. Twelvy and rocky my favorite 2. Nast rhymes like he think he's a lot nicer than he actually is and his flow kinda subpar, definently don't see him blowing up either.

Agreed.

I mean, i like Nast but to me.. Twelvy>>>> he. got that "it" factor to me.
