Lmao Flex speaking the truth... I mean... he sees Griselda for what they are... they appeal mainly to white dorks who buy their 'collectible' merch and nerd out with their shyt. He never recognized them as a real force in the game, overall like a G-Unit, Ruff Ryders, Dipset, Brick Squad movement.... they simply have a niche, and it is what it is. They're also overly cocky dikkheads, the shyt they've said on social media is wild cringe and they seem to be really touchy, like females and they get in their feelings way too much and go on whining rants on Twitter. Their music is boring. They don't belong anywhere near a Funkmaster Flex mix and rightfully so... All these dudes do is cry and stay disgruntled and mad.... Why? Y'all got a cult following fanbase, have achieved a lot of accolades and making plenty money. Dudes must be mad they really not ringin' off in hood circles like that... but they got the whiteboys, so be happy. I can't tell you how many times I brought up these dudes names as a litmus test for my own curiousity when discussing music shyt with round the way nikkas and usually always their response is "Nah I don't know them, where they from?"

Conway doesn't make music that most 20 year olds are into. You could push Griselda like crazy, give them all the promo in the world but it wouldn't make them sell like a pop or trap rapper.

Con could probably change his approach and do more numbers, like a few pop samples, trap beats etc. Hes a dope rapper, but if you're doing boom bap street talk it can't sell like that.

My Pops Forever RIP
I got a homie, he a rapper and he wanna win bad
He want the fame, the acclaim, the respect that's been had
By all the legends, so every time I see him, he stressin'
Talkin' 'bout, nikkas don't fukk with him, this shyt is depressin'
And I know he so bitter he can't see his own blessings
Goddamn, nikka, you too blind to see you got fans, nikka
And a platform to make a classic rap song
To change a nikka's life, but you too anxious livin' life
Always worried 'bout the critics who ain't ever fukkin' did it
I write what's in my heart, don't give a fukk who fukkin' with it
But in a sense I can relate, the need to be great
Turns into an obsession and keeps a nikka up late
Writin' words, hopin' people observe the dedication
That stirs in you constantly, but intentions get blurred
Do I do it for the love of the music or is there more to me?
Do I want these nikkas to worship me?
False prophets

It’s been like this since the mid 00’s. Griselda isn’t going to get hot97 play unless it’s late night or something.

Hot 97 been shytting on underground/hardcore/back pack rappers for over a decade for some odd reason.. I remember Ebro clashed with Buckshot over something similar

They're full of shyt.

Flex will sit here and tell you that Conway ain't getting no mainstream burn, but drop 20 bombs "premiering" some new NBA Youngboy.

When NY artists had the streets and internet buzzin during the mixtape era, he was playing snap music during his prime time radio slot. That's why Nas and Jay don't fukk with him.

Man's started his show saying “anybody can’t come up here” and now in 2022 this nikka got JI the prince of NY and Jack Harlow coming up there.

Not a flex fan or Radio DJs at all

But seriously these radio DJs is not going to play street music like that on radio

And why even care? This isn’t the 80s or 90s with no social media and radio /tv was your only outlet

40 year old nikka still stuck in 94
The point is they should play that. People don't know what they like until you introduce them to something different that's what made the 90s so good.
