Jay's interest seems to lie outside of music.
Nas features young talent on his latest albums. I think he's doing better than Jay in this regard.
NY should do what The West just did. Which artist from Kendricks generation can spearhead the movement and lead th show?

IS YOU SERIOUS?
Jim Jones used Max B as a benchwarmer and a writer. He didn't put out any of his mixtapes or even let him make sufficient show money. Max had to do that on his own.
That's literally why Max left. Jim Jones was holding him back even when he was in ByrdGang.
Max linked up with Hollywood Fergie and Big Mike from Connecticut and started doing live shows with them. Max met Ferg the week he came outta prison, and that was turning point where he decided to leave Jim Jones.

The Truth
I just wonder all the time why people from outside NY always feel the need to bring up NY. The obsession is weird.

Lets be real. Max became a liability after that robbery. And right after that he was making all that "I wrote balling" noise. Max became too vocal about his discrepancies and that's how the tension started. Jim was like "I'm trying to put u on and u get into dumb shyt with the robbery now u out here talking shyt about writing songs and contracts?" The dude Max B had a 2 million dollar bond from the robbery and he had just got put on. Max was a liability. Put ya self in Jims shoes...U try to put this dude on and he's now entangled with a murder. U gonna look at it like "Damn he's fukking up this door I'm trying to open for him." Was Jim supposed to be like "I'm gonna ride with this fukk up till the wheels fall off" when Max wasn't even Jims mans like that, they were just cool? Jims actions towards Max was just on some "get this nikka away from me" shyt because Max Bs actions from the robbery made him a liability plus he was talking shyt publicly about their personal business.
Also LA music is fun and they be dancin and shyt
We just bop our heads and mean mug..
Won't be the same vibe

In other words, Jim Jones didn't pass no torch to Max B nor was he ever Jim's protégé.
Max B was one guy in his crew among multiple and his whole legacy was built outside of Jim. Nobody who's a Max B fan gives a shyt about "Ballin". It's not even on people's playlist.

In other words, Max B fukked everything up before Jim could pass the torch. We didn't know about Max till the Jim co sign. Jim put Max on. We heard Maxs voice on Jims music first. That was Jim opening the door.

For y’all that’s saying French Montana, and as a person that actually does mess with French dating all the way back to the Cocaine City days, I’m pretty sure despite all the connections, NY doesn’t look at him like THAT.

For all intents and purposes. Jim put Max on. What happened after that is whatever. But they had a bunch if mixtapes before the fallout. And a bunch of classic shyt before the fallout. We Be On Our shyt, So Harlem, We Roll, Gz Up, Beverly Hills Cop, Pin The Tail On The Donkey, etc etc. The list goes on.

as much as I love Griselda, they're an 8 hour drive from NYC. The closest we can claim is Rome Streetz.
So Griselda doesn't exist?

Read post #26 again. The dude I quoted said NY not NYC.

when it comes to NY we don't give a fukk about anything north of Yonkers /Mt. Vernon or east of Islip. If it wasn't for Wu-Tang Clan, we'd tell Staten Island to eat a dikk.
We're very confined, though it doesn't seem like it when so many people live here. We don't encompass other parts of the state.

Buddy, I live in the city too. I don't need a breakdown like some out of towner. Buffalo represents NY. It's not like Buffalo cant be referred to as NY. To say it's not NY would be wrong. If anything we specifically say "Upstate NY."
