    wack artist

    great move

    why sign under a nigga like wayne baby or in under mmg and ride another nigga wave

    when in reality every rapper should want to build themselves up to be a baby, 50 or jay

  2. mac DIESEL says:

    DEF JAM??!!! HA!!!! I WOULDN’T SIGN THIS NIGGA TO A DEMO DEAL AFTER WATCHIN’ THAT WACK ASS PERFORMANCE!!!! GOOD LUCK RECOUPING COSTS DEF JAM!!!!

    ……2 TITS GANG!!!! HA!!!! SMH!!!!

    DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!

  3. Hip-Hop Fiend says:

    Anybody can get a deal now a days. I don’t understand why he even has a lil’ buzz. Signing to Def Jam isn’t important no more, If it was 1995 then we might make a big deal about it.

  4. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    L.A. Reid isnt at DEF JAM anymore. Congrats to 2 Chainz whoever you are.

  5. SIGH says:

    WHAT A IDIOTIC MOVE ON DEF JAM PART…2CHAINZ IS OLD AND HE ONLY HAVE 1 HOT SONG WHICH REALLY DIDNT CHART SMH THESE PEOPLE HAVE NO BRAINS AT DEF JAM THEY SIGN THE WORST PEOPLE BUT SHOUTOUT TO RAP RADAR FOR GETTING THIS DUDE A DEAL LOL HIS ALBUM IS GONNA SELL 24,000 COPIES THE FIRST WEEK

  6. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    @Hip-Hop Fiend. Your right homie. Being signed to DEF JAM back in the mid 90’s was like a high football player signing to play for the University of Miami football team.

  7. L.A Reid says:

    @sigh Thats only if Def Jam prmote his weak ass music for those small numbers.

  8. Your mother's "friend" says:

    Like i said in the previous post, all smoke & mirrors this guy was always signed to Def Jam, labels have been pulling this ruse for a while now

  9. Brooklyn says:

    Congats on your deal to Pop Jam.

  10. Hip-Hop Fiend says:

    Fuck Def Jam signing to a label that dosen’t even have a President smh… Just a bunch of A&Rs running the label and don’t even care about there artist music.

  11. Diablo says:

    Dope! Good look for 2 Chainz!

  12. Kunta Kente says:

    This nigga is wack. He just a featured artist that always has the weakest verse on the song.

  13. Word says:

    Cosign @Sigh. Lmao. RR single handedly got this nigga a deal by dickriding him every chance they get and building up to be something hes not. He only has one song in rotation and thats Spend It. Dude isnt even important enough to have his own wikipedia page! No lie! Look him up, its gonna go straight to playaz circle.

    Real talk, the dude is wack. Coveted? Not even hating but I see the buzz that RR manufactured for this guy. YN was RTing all these tweets to try and make it seem like this nigga 2 Chainz was tearing shit down at SoBs. Bes basically another Flocka, Gucci, Soulja Boy, all them southern niggas that crank out hits but pushes no units.

  14. Word says:

    ….And then yall put his sold out performance post as number one like niggas really gave a fuck about it.. We see what yall doing RR. Still fucks with yall though!

  16. Word says:

  17. The Truth says:

    Why sign a artist who is going to flop hard.

  18. That Pretty Motherfucker says:

    Signs to Def Jam??? Why not Disney? At least your album would come out.

  19. Devante says:

    This nigga was under the Def Jam umbrella for 8 years and counting.. It goes to show you dont depend on labels, so as he went indie he blew up.

  20. wizsucks says:

  21. M.T says:

    Haters 2 chains doing numbers in the street def jam deal well he been there it’s prolly them that helped him do the movement thru the mixtape scene and tours etc but I hope when his lp come out at least you internet gangsters would listen instead of calling someone wack cause their from the south. East coast have wack artist to. Nobody’s Perfect what the fuck! What y’all wanna listen to of everyone’s wack???

  32. Scott Ny says:

    Look at these kids talking how a man with rastas like braids is rockin his snap.

    2chainz might not be the most lyrical rapper, but he’s one of the most charismatic, he’s one of the funniest, realest and on. I usually don’t mess with rappers like Gucci, Plies and on, But 2chainz is special, he created something new and fresh with the familiar trap sound. Most new rappers are followers and 2chainz is one of the few new solo rappers that doesn’t follow anything.

    Besides adlibs, which every rapper done jacked from Snowman..
