Troy Ave doesn't hold his tongue back for anyone. The Brooklyn rapper previously made some pretty disparaging comments about Kanye West and Kendrick Lamar, referring to them both as "weirdo rappers." Troy recently spoke with NEHip-Hop.com and not only did he repeat the aforementioned about Kendrick, but also referred to Chance the Rapper as a "drug addict."
According to the rapper, his statement stems from a short-lived disagreement with Statik Selektah when the producer's voting for Chance the Rapper as rookie of the year in a recent poll. "I wasn't feeling Statik the other day man because Complex had a list of some sh*t, and rookie of the year, he voted for Chance the Rapper over me," Troy Ave said. "And I said I'm gonna tell'em when I see'em, 'That sh*t you did voting for Chance the Rapper over Troy Ave was corny 'cause I don't see Chance the Rapper at your parties or featuring on your records, you can't be f**king voting for drug addicts to be rookie of the year,'" he said in reference to Chicago rapper.
"The game is twisted and f**ked up. How is a drug addict gonna be at the forefront of rap? That sh*t is corny. Basically, he cleared it up, he said there wasn't like a list of names for him to choose from. He didn't pick him over me, they just asked him, 'Who do you vote for?' and they had to send out a name or whatever."
