Pusha is brushing off criticism from fellow VA natives for them not blowing up considering he and his brother damn near pioneered cocaine rap.

This shot was taken at local VA rapper Ambassador Rick who decided to shoot back. One of the easiest ways to have a hit song is to put Trey Songz on the hook. Rick used a Trey Songz sample on his song “Baby It’s the Grind,” but he is still an unknown rapper.
