French Montana has come up with a theory about the Coronavirus and how it will affect some rappers once it’s over. It’s no secret that the music industry has been largely impacted by COVID-19, with a lot of tours, live shows, and festivals being postponed or canceled. Due to these drastic changes, this resulted in major financial losses. This also makes French Montana believe that some of his fellow rappers may struggle or have to make hard financial decisions because they failed to save for a rainy day.In a recent interview with TMZ, Montana revealed that he has always saved money throughout his career, because of his dreams of stepping away from the music industry one day. Montana stated, “There’s so many things we don’t appreciate… Everybody is getting put to test about one thing and one thing only: Was you saving money when you was rapping?”. He also went on to say, “You don’t see something like this coming. There’s a lot of artists out there that live check-to-check. There’s going to be a lot of garage auctions. I’ll tell you that much.” Watch the full interview below. https://youtu.be/JpKmQ93O5Ho
