in all fairness to french montana's brand, he has been doing those venues for more than 4 years now, he has had to go through the whole black ball with max and he rose above that,
where as a cat like asap rocky basically was a co-signed sensation over night, smart marketing but he was at the right place(tumblr) at the right time, French is basically a two shot pony
he was on his way as duo with max, and when max got locked up he revamped his tools and went down south for guidance. I mean as popular as asap is, his song f_in problems and
pop that are basically identical generic rap records, i go with french because his connection to the game started with a true NY artists in max b, where asap basically took bits and pieces other
underground acts like space-ghost, and lil b, sprinkle in other 90's influences, french does sound like a southern artist but he still uses max b song structure without claiming as his own.
I like the idea of the xxl cover but if NY is back its still in a identity crisis, i think some other artist like troy ave, joey bad-***, could help out a lil more. i swear joey badass could do for NY what kendrck lamar did for LA, he just needs better be......... more live instrumental beats to gain the attention his pen deserves,
