French Montana talks “Excuse My French” delays with MTV’s “RapFix Live” [VIDEO]

When French Montana first gained traction, he earned comparisons to 50 Cent. This had nothing to do with style, however. But, French Montana used mixtapes to establish himself and his crew. Establishing himself and his crew, French Montana brought new life into the New York hip hop scene, which continues to center around Jay-Z.

Bad Boy Records signed French Montana and he has the platform to become the biggest artist in the game. Immediate co-signs came from Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, and Drake with whom French Montana shares his first mainstream hit. Excuse My French has faced countless delays, due over one year ago.

Alongside Jermaine Dupri, French Montana appeared on MTV’s “RapFix Live.” The first airing of 2013, Sway Calloway talked to French Montana about him calling his debut album “album of the decade.” French Montana also explained the latest delay on his album came because of his decision to release “Freaks,” which features Nicki Minaj as his new single.
