Love Kenzo B personality, she has the right mindset towards things. D thang seems like a young street dude on efoot in and one foot out but appears like he’s making the right transition. French regardless of how people may feel, has definitely made impact on the culture and has work ethic.
Great interview ❤ love to see a man on his journey to bettering themselves, working on their past behavior and lifestyle that wasnt the best and moving on being wiser and all the better for it. Also can relate to him going on a sober journey leaving the alcohol and drugs behind, those things feel good but we can easily get lost.
@@simonmaduxx6777 😂 Relax, dude, it's not about "caring" about the person. If you're a fan of the art, you're a fan of the art plain and simple. The guy said he was the most streamed African artist ever, so obviously, someone cares. Appreciation for music and the creatives of music does not always equate to worship or zealous adulation of a person. Get out of your misery and envy, dude.
@@Dynasty19 I am miserable.. because he's a lame artist? 😂. You guys take these RUclips comments way too seriously. Calm down bro with your silly psychoanalysis. Critiquing a musician makes you miserable and envious? Please explain that logic. I personally could give a flying crap if he had 19 billion streams... He's still lame. I'm a creative myself, I'd rather be me and good than him and be super lame. And I don't have to walk around calling myself French Montana 😂. Give me a break dude You're trying to sound smart but you sound silly. Plenty of untalented comparatively lame folks is out there making a lot of money and is very popular. A fan of the art is just going to accept somebody because they're lame and just happens to be popular? That sounds really silly. Again...he is still lame. This guy has had ABC 123 lyrics forever. Even his name is corny. French Montana? Cmon. But hey the moon and the stars comes together for some people, that's just life. It doesn't mean I have to like it just because he's the most streamed in any given territory. That doesn't mean one bloody thing to me. And it shouldn't have to. We have an idiot ex-president and he's very popular with an idiot population. Should we not critique him because of his successes in scamming and being a undesirable? You see how your logic is failing. Cmon brah.
People sleep on French man. His Montega album that came out in 2022 I felt was one of the best albums that released that year. Good interview. Time to tap in to this Mac and Cheese 5
please listen to that mac and cheese 5, and also if you have time listen to the mac and cheese series and coke boys series and casino life 2 because those are flames man
You can tell Charlemagne feels more comfortable being himself when he has the young kids in the studio. This is why I find it ridiculous that they’re blackballing the drill artist.
Didn’t understand why I was up watching this… until I heard what I needed about loosing people when you let go of negative things that they still attached to you
I drove a NYC yellow cab from 2009-2016, I saw Montana's white ghost parked outside of Hot 97 on Hudson, Meatpacking district, Chelsea, Sin City bronx, was fkn crazy
French Montana's music and mixtapes up until 2016 *_was the shits!_* 2009 to 2014 era French was my personal favorite. After 2016 his style and bars got watered down too much and I stopped checking as much. After he released _Coke Wave 4_ in 2019 (having never dropped a _Coke Wave 3,_ and it was mediocre) I completely tuned out. French lost his core fanbase trying to exclusively cater to the mainstream fanbase. The old music, depending on the track, was a mix of gangsta rap, introspective, soulful, and some of his tracks had real bars because French started out as a battle rapper although his mental degeneration from his drinking/drugs and having previously been shot in the head made the lyrical tracks rarer as the years passed by. His mixtapes are legendary because of all the features and the mixture of different styles of beats, there was something for everyone. Even as an underground artist from 2007 to 2011, he had features from the biggest rappers on his tapes. His tapes also had tons of underground rappers, many who went on to blow-up later. His tapes brought them a bigger audience. Mixtapes in general were a good way for rappers to collaborate and grow their fanbases. That DVD and mixtape eras were my favorite. Hip hop hasn't been the same since then and I barely follow the new stuff.
If you wanna check out French Montana's best work from his best era: More on the old-school gangsta side: - Coke Wave 1 (with Max B) - Coke Boys 1 - Cocaine Mafia (with Juicy J and Project Pat) - Casino Life 1 - Locked Out (with Waka Flocka Flame) More on the soulful side: - Mac & Cheese 2 - Coke Boys 2 - Mac & Cheese: The Appetizer EP More on the new-school gangsta side: - Mac & Cheese 3 - Casino Life 2
I was there sold his dvds and mixtapes dipset was paying niggas not to play and listen to his shit 50 and the unit cosigned him early on then he linked wit Max B cocaine city dvd
1- I hate when envy pushes to wrap an interview too fast 😂 read the room of your cohosts 2- Jess - in regard to the why Africa questions were you aware of French being Moroccan? 3- ENVY - now why u gone ask that mane bout diddy 18:35 Good to see French ❤
This French Album is HARD. I love the songs with him and Ye. But the whole album is great. Montana Back. My favorite New York Rapper of the last couple decades.
French dawg ; your a legend not just for hip^hop music for the culture but I think I heard you say that you helped open a hospital in Uganda and that's what I call some OGż shiiit dawg real talk about real life well done y'all !!!
I know french gave d thang a whole lecture after this interview cus the way he looked at him when he said he’s “ living what he raps” (self snitching).
Good on charlamgne on motivating that young rapper to stay active because he’s lyrics have to be a reflection of his real life. Good leading the youth.
Love Kenzo B personality, she has the right mindset towards things. D thang seems like a young street dude on efoot in and one foot out but appears like he’s making the right transition. French regardless of how people may feel, has definitely made impact on the culture and has work ethic.
Summed it up perfectly
I agree with everything you said here.
The "culture " 😂😂
Those max b & french mixtapes bring alot of memories !! #freethewave
Wavy baby
French looks like he did a DBZ Fusion with drake and DJ Khaled. 😂😂😂
Bruh 😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha in tears 😂
And Dre from cool and dree
I love how Jess jumped in and stop the babies from arguing with each other
You can tell she is a mother and has a son.
@@IamMrImpeccable facts
She definitely brought ease and understanding to that moment "D-Thang"was turning up, you can tell he had something on his mind...
@@blackgirlinadoggoneworld shut up
I still play “Shot Caller” on repeat!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Classic NY Record
I love the way Jess spoke up to D Thang
French’s energy and personality will always always be the light and best part of him. He’s very likable and hard to not get comfortable with
I smiled throughout this whole interview I been loving French since high school ❤

French so on point. WE NEED MIXTAPES BACK❗️
Nah chill old head it’s over for that
Why is it over for that? Who dont want more music from there favorite artist with no record label controlling your creativeness
French has an excellent ear for sound, dude is more of a music/marketing specialist than people give him credit for tbh
don't need no credit cuz nobody cares... Y'all care too much about people who don't care about y'all

He was smooth with it. He said something without saying anything.

Lmao😂😂
Stop it 😂😂
😂
Mac and Cheese 3 was my soundtrack in HS! Glad to see him still putting on from NY!
You and I both. “devil want my soul” is still my 🔥🔥🔥
Mac cheese 3 is the best one to me he really got fucus on that mixtape
No shit Sherlock
Devil want my soul 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yep it was when he was illuminated
Forsure the best one whole mxtape 🔥
try mac and cheese 2 because that was a close second but the 3 fasho the best one
It’s refreshing to see a brotha giving praise & uplifting each other instead of drama & tryna tear someone down. Solid Man…
Charlemagne said “did they search y’all” 😅 always stay safe

Mac & cheese 4: the appetizer is my 💩!!! A work of art tbh. I love to listen to it while driving when it rains.
Playing in the wind 2 is a classic. People just hate on French because it’s cool to hate on him.
Top 5 mixtape all time in my book
@@ahmedally125 facts i heard it last week for nostalgia and it hitted back home like it did in middle school
@@alexlynch1674 it was short but ik its just appetizer but he could've added 5 more songs
Shoutout to Jess. She meditated and handled that with such class and smoothness. True air sign and true class.
Jess a professional adlib 😂😂 she male said 13 words and 2 questions 😂 respect that man deepest voice out of all them niggaz up there
#FreeMaxB! 🗽
This was a cool interview, despite all of the negativity French gets he seems like a genuine dude.
LOVE seeing Kenzo on a big platform!
French got out that Puff question real quick
thats all you got from the interview?
Awwww Auntie Jess giving DThang gems
good interview everyone, well done!
"French got hits period!!"...look it up!!💪🏼💯📲
I drove a NYC yellow cab from 2009-2016, I saw Montana's white ghost parked outside of Hot 97 on Hudson, Meatpacking district, Chelsea, Sin City bronx, was fkn crazy
Maybe it’s because I’m high and I’m actually a fan of French but this was a really good interview the whole vibe and flow salute

“When things happen to people you never expect it to happen that’s why it happened “ - French Montana

D Thang needs to mature, before he destroys the opportunity in front of him. Good Job Jess for the beef interception.

That’s deep
That’s deep
French a low key legend….people sleep on him
I know french gave d thang a whole lecture after this interview cus the way he looked at him when he said he’s “ living what he raps” (self snitching).
