Maybach Music Group’s Wale has no shame in how he climbed to the rap game’s mountain top. The hip-hop veteran shared a personal story about his journey to becoming a music star.
Ralph Folarin went to Instagram this week and detailed the grind he took.
Earlier in the week, Wale scolded thirsty music newcomers hitting him up to try and get put on.
“Public service announcement. If you’re a rapper or entertainer or anything, jumping in my DMs and asking to get on is not the best way because it’s so many people in them DMs asking about music and all of that. That doesn’t really display your hunger, jumping in the DMs and being like, ‘Can I open for tour? Can you sign me?’ If you know anything about me, you know that I’m working with Phil Ade right now and I’m working on my album. That’s really all I have time for. So basically, find other means, man. I’m not trying to be rude or nothing like that. I’m not trying to be stuck up. Just asking, that’s not how it works. You feel me? We gotta do better, man. And, one more, please stop getting mad when n*ggas read your messages and don’t reply because half of y’all girls that DM me do the same thing to n*ggas. So when a n*gga do it to you, you don’t like it. And you’re only doing it because I got a little name and sh*t. Stop. Stop it!”
Recently, Wale spoke on reconnecting with labelmate Meek Mill.
Last summer, the rap veteran spoke out on his label issues.
