Think being represented by ASAP Mob, French Montana, and Nicki Minaj is a win, brehs :mjlol:
Hip Hop a shyt show right now. All the people I listed at the very least write their own music :yeshrug:

I'd say as an overall scene, NY is only second to LA :yeshrug:

He is (correction) President of Good Music, how is that not masterminding his own career?

I don't begrudge Desiigner his success. Get it how you live.

It does go without saying that this would have not been cool 20 years ago in hip-hop. Didn't Ghostface go off a rant on the Purple Tape about Biggie allegedly biting off... an album cover???

The times we live in... :francis:

Sorry Aubrey.

:russ::russ:

I spit my Drink Out. Congrats to the young Brooklyn boy. Now he has to follow up with hot album which KanYe is clearly executive producing. Technically Drake does have 2 #1 singles though both are Rihanna Features (And they both would of went #1 without him). This is a historic #1 because of how young he is and the fact it's his first single that he uploaded on soundcloud/Youtube in Dec not to mention he basically got a no-name producer (Shout out to Menace, hope you got more fire ready) and paid 200 for the beat. The song just kept climbing and climbing.

It just seems like the more people heard it the more they wanted to hear it again. Of course KanYe helped as "Part 2" is basically a "Panda" promo, Ye doesn't even play the full song, lol but it help in people wanting to hear the full thing. I know people are thinking "1 hit wonder". In any other circumstance I might agree but he's got Ye on his side and I'm sure Ye sees this as a golden oppourtunity. Lil Kim did say "Welcome to the Royal Brooklyn Family" for a reason. First #1 single out of Brooklyn since Hov, Biggie.

*Lil Kim has a #1 song but it was a feature on "Lady Marmaulde". Her highest charting single is "Magic Stick" featuring 50 Cent which peaked at #2.


#1 HOT 100 SINGLES ALL TIME BROOKLYN

"Hypnotize" 97'
"Mo Money, Mo Problems" 97'
"Empire State of Mind" 09'
"Panda" 16'
