French Montana dropte afgelopen week zijn album ‘Excuse My French’. Op Twitter grapten veel collega-rappers over de salescijfers van het album.
Volgens critici zouden die niet boven de 45.000 uitkomen in de eerste week. French kan er wel om lachen. “Um, honestly, I really believe it’s not what you sell, but where you end up at. I feel like it doesn’t matter how much I sell; I know what kind of product I have. It’s going to be legendary.”
In hetzelfde interview vertelt de rapper dat hij Lana Del Rey van het album dropte, en verving voor Max B. “There was this Lana Del Rey record that I had that I really wanted to be on the album. It kind of worked out for the better, because we swapped it out for a Max B record. That meant more to me.”
Verder vergelijkte hij zichzelf met artiesten als Akon en Shaggy. “Look at Akon. He sold seventeen thousand first week; he ended up selling five million copies. Look at Shaggy. He sold ten thousand and ended up at ten million.”
