But its simple really: Stalley is not that type of artist. Imo everything he does on MMG is xtra, its gravy. B/c everything about his personality and his content points towrd a Currensy, Z-Ro, Bishop Lamont type career. The thing they all have in common is theyre all not...worldly/trendy/dumb enough to pop. Wale is. Meek is. All these silly new nggas are lol Asap rocky, Big Sean, etc.
And thats exactly why I fuks wit Stalley. Every rapper, especially in this day n age, is not meant for the masses.
Currensy is hotter than Stalley tho....

Currensy is my nigga, I'm bumpin Bales right now, but I think Stalley has a slight edge on him, he seems like he's constantly evolving compared to what Currensy is doing. But still it goes back to the KRIT debate: should you change with time or keep doing the thing that made people pay attention to you in the first place? I think it should be a blend of the two

Stalley doesn't have a solo album deal to drop an album with. Rick Ross signed him to Maybach Music but that's a vanity label. Atlantic or Warner Bros. is gonna have to open a budget for a Stalley album. Wale did the work on his own to get buzz - Ross added to it. Meek did the work to get his own buzz - Ross added to it. Stalley isn't doing enough to get his own. Ross can't hold nobody's hand while he tries to recover from this horrible career year he just had.

Post some.dope Stalley Bars!
First things first, the writing in the original post is very well done other than it looking like a wall of text. I would suggest breaking it down into smaller paragraphs and throwing some indents in their fam. Good writing though.
About Stalley. I think that Ross knows that Stalley isn't going to blow up on some super major shit. Stalley remains with MMG because he brings a bit of balance to all of the big boy money talk, dope boy, pistols, etc content that MMG rocks with. Yea Wale balances it out also, but Stalley does it on some other shit (can't really explain it right now). As much as people talk down on Ross, he seems to be a fairly intelligent dude. With that said, I don't think its even about maximizing a profit with Stalley. Ross is making sure that a platform is available for a conscious artist to be heard. What better platform than MMG, one of the biggest names in the game, can give an outlet like that to feed the masses with that real life talk.
Of course I could be wrong, but I think things are playing out exactly how they want it to play out with Stalley. Ross is a hip hop head through and through and appreciates the likes of artists like Common and other conscious spittas through history who know how to blend real reality with a bit of street spit mixed in to touch them types of people.
Stalley is going to build and maintain a solid fan base that rocks with him through the thick and thin. As far as Stalley not being observed much running with MMG. Tell ya'll something, if you from a neighborhood environment you should already know why. I don't like using bullshit playground name calling, but for the sake of getting this point across I'll go ahead and throw something out there. Stalley doesn't run much with them dudes because he's basically like the hood cool square nigga if that makes any sense. Its hard to describe some of this shit in words but if you're from the hood you know what I'm talking about. I can smell that shit a miiiile away by just looking at his gestures and body language when he's around some of them niggas. He's very awkward. He's from the hood but probably wasn't fully IMMERSED in the hood, feel me? Its not arrogance at all, he's just not comfortable with the lifestyle that he's been thrust into. Probably not a party dude and doesn't go out much, pretty simple.

Oh and the Currensy and Stalley comparison. They're both my Gs and I rock with both of their catalogues heavy, but Stalley has way better content than Currensy hands down. Stalley touches on all aspects of life while when I think Currensy, the first thing that comes to mind is weed, cars, and just general MC shit talkin.

Bleek had 2 Gold Albums one of the 1st behind Jay to have a album off the Roca-fella label. Stalley would be better off if he was Bleek
