Troy Ave goes in on Funkmaster Flex Show with this freestyle CLICK HERE TO SUBSCRIBE: bit.ly/12lN6vb HOT97: www.hot97.com TWITTER: / hot97 FACEBOOK: / hot97official
Im going to be honest, this is what hip hop should be, not this specific freestyle but getting everyone in this comment session to start saying "Troy ave sucks for coming at kendrick" or "Kendrick sucks, troy ave is the best" its about time we start seeing some more competition in the game.
Here's 2 tips for rappers: 1) don't do what he just did! 2) if u cant freestyle, write some "throw away bars" memorize it, no phone!! -from a fan of the art
Everybody is a critic, Troy said himself he's not a "rappity rapper", and his freestyles are his new verses before they come out on a song. You can call him shit all you want but his actual music is good quality. Everybody wants to tear someone down instead of supporting them these days. Find something better to do with your life
Let's get this straight. He sold 4,500 copies in two days, his album released digitally on the 5th which was a friday. The hard copies weren't to release until the 11th. So that 30 copy myth was from stores who decided to put the album on shelves on the 5th when it wasn't supposed to be there. His album reached number 2 on iTunes hip hop charts, and 5 overall on iTunes. For an independent artist that's not bad at all
Everyone saying he spit recycled verses from songs, but so did kendrick, jcole, and dam near every other artist who came on flex. Joell ortiz, lupe or budden might be the only dudes who go hard with new verses or freestyle on these radio shows.
Remember January 2014 hype was fire 🔥 it's dat Brooklyn sh*t street rapper, dope classic instrumental freestyle Brooklyn style by troy ave rocking biggie sweater 💙💯😉👍 dat real street rap right there shout to Troy ave Brooklyn stand up real Strong.... 💪💪💪😮💙 (spread love it's da Bk way)
prolly sound dumb askin what's this beat from originally it's killin me I can't think of it , but troy u killin it homie don't stop this that new style we need from NY
You can count on one hand the rappers who go to radio stations and spit not written bars. Freestyles haven't been the same since the internet age. The question is can this man rap, and the answer is YES.
If you were really getting paid you wouldn't be wasting you're valuable time on youtube calling people faggots because they have a different opinion on music than you do. Make sure you're not late for work little girl and go get you're bullshit "6 figure salary" lmao
Drake always read off of his phone and now he's one of the more well known rappers in the game right now. Some of these dudes with super freestyle don't make hot songs. Some of these battle rappers can't make music. Some of these super lyricists have boring shows. And why are people trying to roast troy ave for bringing 90's styles back while yall runnin around dressed like the 80's European punk rock era in skinny jeans?
Dude is a New 50cent, you ca see he is a fan. If you listen to everything 50 did early in his career he mimicking him and just changed it up SLIGHTLY... Thing is most was a lot younger when 50 was doin it so what he doin sound so new to them.. I'm wit elevating Brooklyn but this ain no Bklyn flow this all 50 and he sing on tracks too. Young50!
Y'all mad corny for coming at Troy, he da illest nigga comin out NYC & restoring that feel..somebody gotta do it, kuz these industry MFs ain't doin it, everything he puts out is classic! Jus give credit where it's due & stop hating, who gives af if he spit his verse from "classic feel"..it's mad ppl out here who haven't heard it yet
C'mon Troy u shoulda came thru with a memorized verse or two... even if they were from a previous recorded track its still better than comin yo phone...
95% of rappers use written or remembered freestyles. all of kendrick freestyles are songs or freestyles made specifically for that occasion. like the TDE cypher kendrick shit was written but still dope. stop hating on TROY
Maaaaaannnn ....the hell???... dam yo...he better not ever get caught off guard in public and someone says spit something off the top...he will be toast.. lol.. but I still Fucks with his New York City album...just not his freestyle
I like some of Troy Ave's music. He's developed into a pretty good songwriter, but the freestyle game doesn't seem to be his "cup of tea". This was hot garbage to be honest. Not the worst I've heard, but still bad. When you have people like Fab, Jada, Joe Budden, etc. coming in and spitting heat, and you come in and sound like you rattled off the worst verses from a mixtape you released you're just embarrassing yourself.
I cant remember the last time i saw a rapper freestyle without using his damn phone.. How the hell we going to clown cannibus for reading rhymes in a battle rap when every raper under the sun can't commit to remembering their rhymes. Has Mc's fallen a hell of a long way!!! I dont think i have ever seen artists rom other genres do this...Damn....the game fucked up......!!!
ya love to hate on my nigga troy ave.... all rappers done got on hot 97 and spit pre written rhymes.... jay z, nas, d block, biggie, the greats... even busta rhymes was spittin that whoaaaa got u all in check in the battle he did wit odb..... look it up

Myles Martinez dude he only sold 4k copies.

i thought he was signed tbh
nah bro, he started BSB, an independent label for him and his artists, he pretty much does everything by himself
+Myles Martinez Troy ........is that you?

Troy's bowl-cut got a crack in it.
He's waaaaay better than these weirdo's that rapping now. Talent is a gift.
The camera man was being graceful..... way to cut out that phone from the gaze. Too bad the reflection in the lens confirmed the apparent lol
