“it pisses me off so much that i deleted all of my Wale plays because i was embarrassed to have 200+ plays of his music, best out of MMG (i love Meek but Wale still got it) and his shoe game is probably the reason why i love collecting sneakers at my young age lol..”
“was meant to be up there with drake cole and kendrick. shouldnt have signed to mmg”
“and thats not crazy to say at all. Meek did his thing dropping his gems back in the day and so did Ross but i think Wale has more material that outshines Ross, Meek possibly being the best and close contender tbh. I would probably do a little personal versus battle with the two of their material low”
