Jay didn't pick State Prop over MF. They turned down the deal, because there was a bidding war for them, and the deal was only for like 10K. MF got 1M from Ruff Nation, and the 10K for them ended up becoming what O & Sparks, Beans and Young Gunz signed for. The beef between State Prop & MF was said to have been started by Jay putting the bug in Beans ear. Their beef started because Beans out of nowhere started trashing the Figgaz after he built a buzz with them.
Gillie is hella annoying, but he's brutally honest in a lot of his statements. He also knows how to network, which is the reason he was the King of Philly. He still kept most of his relationships in the industry after 20 years...the entire time of him reverting back to being a local rapper, he was still mingling with dudes in the industry. But he internet persona is just him dialed up to 11.
