French Montana says that the Trayvon Martin case didn’t surprise him. “I know about 1,000 Trayvon Martins,” French Montana says in an interview with TorontoRappers.com. “He was just the first one that got public, the people standing behind. But things like that happen almost every day where I’m from, so I’m used to it. I’m used to not getting the upper hand in the court of law. That’s the system we’re dealing with.”
George Zimmerman was found not guilty of second degree murder and manslaughter July 13. He was accused of murdering Martin February 26, 2012. Many believed that Martin was singled out and killed by Zimmerman for racial reasons. Martin, 17, was Black and Zimmerman is Hispanic.
People gathered in more than 100 cities across the United States July 20 to honor Martin. Martin’s mother, Jay-Z and Beyonce were among those who attended a rally in Manhattan, New York. “It’s a sad situation, but it’s strength in numbers,” French Montana says. “The way everybody is reacting to the whole Trayvon situation, you can’t get a better outcome.”
Several other rappers have commented on the death of Martin. Immortal Technique said that the Zimmerman verdict was a wake-up call for Blacks and for parents, while Brother Ali likened Martin’s case to that of Emmett Till’s. Till, a 14-year-old black male, was tortured and murdered in 1955 in Mississippi after being accused of flirting with a white woman.

Can’t believe we missed French coming to Toronto. He must have played some bum venue cause we aint even know he was in town. Too bad we would have done him like they did 2 Chainz in SF

worst song of the year? quite possibly. he seemed pretty worried when they called him out for filming dj khaleds mom you hear how quick he changed the subject and said he from the streets LOL
haters are jokes. I think you’ve singlehandedly given french a successful career. it seems the more hate he receives the bigger he gets.
lol
damn you’re right! i heard he just went plat, oh wait he hasnt sold 100k yet in like 3 months, FLOP MONTANA
THIS IS THE WACKEST RAPPER IN THE GAME PERIOD, JUST LOOK AT HIS CLOTHES, I SEEN BEYONCE WEARING THE SAME SHIRT 2 YEARS AGO
1,000 TM’s who, if alive, still wouldn’t purchase Excuse My French.
I dunno. I think maybe 6-9 of them would have.
rap game fucked up when you got half retarded niggas like this doing it big, even though j cole sold 6 times what he did first week hannnnnn!!!
1000 trayvons huh? we dont believe you bruh. every time he opens his trap he exaggerating to the max about something. remember when he said he was gonna sell 200k first week!!! 3 months later he aint sold half of that ROFLMFAO
Spoken like a grade A internet egghead.
He started his career selling mixtapes in the streets of NYC, I know Fordham Rd and Grand Concourse, I can see a 1000 Travyons everyday because there’s a park, shopping area, subway, a bunch of apartments and a school around.
You look like you don’t even know 1000 Black people.
^ He probably don’t know more then one.
thats true, i dont think i know 1000 people total
How you go from screamin Dipset!!! to coke wave, to Konvict Music, to G-Unit!, to Bricksquad, to Young Money, to MMG, to Bad Boy to Coke Wave
when id he ever scream g unit? or brick squad? Or actually on record screaming Konvict music?
And even though hes affiliated with YM hes never been on record trying to rep them? And he reps MMG/Bad Boy because thats who hes signed with, and the Coke Wave was his and Max Bs doing
i dont know the song but he did a song with banks or yayo and he was shouting g-unit. he wanted to be down with them so bad he even filmed dj khaled’s mom!
gucci called him out for not keeping it real. he switches teams more than weezy
Coke Boys that is
I’m sure mr “Put him in the dirt” is deeply concerned with pointless murders.
This whack ass Morocco native looks like he got spit out of a drying machine at the corner laundromat. 1000 Trayvon’s where I’m from. Nigga, you’re from Grand Theft Auto, still trying to do cheat codes for a ballin’ ass car or tank in the rap game. you ain’t Master P.
There is this interesting movie coming out about rappers getting shot for no good reason. http://www.citydreamsmovie.com
Gucci Mane = realest rapper ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
– T.I. snitch to the feds
– Young Jeezy was never bmf
– 50 Cent snitch and was never in jail but a youthcamp
– Game was never a banger but lived the life of his brother in his lyrics
– Nas Escobar never sold drugs
– Ice Cube never was a gangbanger
– Dr Dre never was a gangbanger
– 2pac was a ballerina and never sold drugs after he become famous he was doing some stupid stuff like beating and shooting at people because he though he could get away with it. Without Suge Knight 2pac was just a skinny motherfucker. Oh and i like his music so fuck you.
– Mobb deep are the biggiest pussies
Oh French Montana go back to Morroco!
give it up bruh no one cares about how real gucci is. this is the rap game not the trap game. its about selling records and making hits not who has the longest rap sheet
Dude is real, and also stupid. How the hell U made it out the hood and gon’ do dumb shit like hit fans over the head with a bottle? Does Gucci miss jail that much?!
thats the truth where we from it happens everyday!!
This is a common occurrence in poorer areas and it’s usually police who commit these murders. Just last year in the bx a white cop ran into a black boys house, killed him for no reason, and got away with it. They always get away with it… It’s not just florida, it’s everywhere. This only got so much attention because it was in a rich area.

He knows 1,000 Trayvons cause he sold drugs to all of them.
As much as I hate French, he’s got a point. The case only blew up because of where it happened. These type of incidents happen all the time in bigger cities with high crime rates. The just don’t gain publicity because it’s an everyday occurrance…
Damn shame
niggas get shot every day, that is true but not innocent niggas. most of them are doing nigga shit
the case only blew up bec everything thought zimmerman was some white american even though hes only part white and rest hispanic..but you never hear the hispanic part all you hear is white america this n that..
but u never seen none of these superheros remembering a black man shot by a black man even though thats the case 97/100 times.
black people love using race for their own benefit.. ei. GZ and obama– even though obama is half white its oh no hes black..bet if he fucked up itd be nah fuck that half white person..amerikkka right?! lames
