While performing at the Converse Rubber Tracks Trinidad Jameshad a few choice words about the NYC music scene and telling it like he really feels.
In the video Trinidad says,
"You can’t tell me, or anybody here that’s a real f*cking hip-hop fan, that Kendrick Lamar was supposed to go platinum just this year. He’s been that f*cking good! But now, the n*gga that we been knew [was good] is coming and saying shit like he the king of New York. What is that? I remember when New York ran this sh*t, dog. When Dipset was f*cking turned the f*ck up! We were in Atlanta like, “Oh my God, I have to wear my bandana on tilt like Juelz.” What the f*ck happened, dog? Us in the South, us ‘bammas, we just did our own thing. But now we run y’all, musically. That’s crazy!"Not only did Trinidad speak his mind last night he has a few choice tweets this morning after the video clip went viral.
"I’m not trying to start nothing, but if you want to do something we can do something because I don’t give a f*ck. I’m just being honest with you. I looked up to New York music. But now every n*gga that’s really popping out of New York, you might as well say he’s from Atlanta. He’s from Atlanta. Y’all got n*ggas that interview that are more popping than n*ggas that are rapping."
New York Rapper Maino responds to Trinidad James in a series of tweets this morning as well.
I can agree with Trinidad. Right now the east coast is not holding it down musically. Do not get me wrong, there are quite a few talented rappers on the east coat, but the South is holding what they claim. Hopefully Trinidad made it out of NYC safely last night. Watch the clip below. What are your thoughts?
