He ate a cockroach and blew up overnight

So quick and simple

Wasnt that easy for him. He wishes

I knew about him before Yonkers.. it wasn't like he came out of nowhere

It did increase his popularity by a lot

But he was already known enough to be able to blow up off it

He already had kids dressing like him and screaming F*** School and Steve Harvey.

He didn’t become famous overnight.

What a stupid thread

Imagine being the cockroach's parents and watching your child be eaten by a man in a Supreme hat.

Never thought about it like that.. Truly eye opening

Sick to my motherfucking tummy
B**** must think I'm a motherfucking dummy
Because I dress bummy, b**** think I'm broke
B****, I ate one roach and I made a lot of money

Did know that, I thought that was his first big song

He had any videos over 1M views before that ?

Never even heard of him eating a cockroach

B****** and the Earl tape just started to get really big online before Yonkers

Pretty sure that MellowHype tape was out as well

He followed up Yonkers with that Sandwitches performance on Jimmy Fallon where Mos Def was screaming "SWAG".

F*** 2DopeBoyz

I can’t remember the views back then, but he had a good buzz and that’s the reason why Yonkers blew up.

Yep

In the tweet I posted he talked like he already made it and it was 2010

Shake was a p****. He thought too highly of himself.
