Schoolly D – Philly Hip Hop Legend Award
Gillie Da Kid – Will Smith Award
Hats off to Schoolly D & EST for their achievements, side nod to DJ Code Money for holding Schooly down back in the day…
Boy Backs tho ?? Is he not a rat, i mean RAM squad not really legends like Schoolly D….
Tommy Hill was the rat now he’s the cadaver, but yeah RAM squad aren’t really legends.
Boy Backs is on youtube himself stating that he snitched on Tommy Hill. Both of them ended up being snitches and dickheads. But as far as music goes, their first two albums were the shit with that second one Thee Album Regardless being a Philly classic in my opinion. It may still may never be able to call them legends especially with how it all ended.
I was so sure Cool C & Steady B would be nominated for the Philly Hip Hop Legend Award:(
I see Major Figgas afiliates but no State Prop? Sus
No Tuff Crew? Idk about these awards man.
MEEK MILL LOST
With this shit not even having Neef Buck or Freeway nominated for one fuck award I can’t take it serious.
Neef Buck put out FDM5 a mixtape that should be nominated for mixtape award especially when you listen the mixtape that won. and he dropped ill visuals.
Freeway hustle game is relentless. This is the guy who headlines the shows and these cats open up for him.
This shit is just bias at this point. It’s all about who’s putting money into the event I think and who’s friend with who. The had Young Chris nominated for a song that he had just dropped days before the nominee list came out but no Neef Buck. SMDH
