So, if at first you don't succeed, you dust yourself off and try again. And that is the case for the incarcerated Bobby Shmurda. Last week, the embattled rapper phoned into Hot 97, but was abruptly cut off during the conversation with Ebro, Rosenberg and Laura Styles.

This time, the phone call went unhitched and a candid Shmurda (along with GS9 affiliate Rowdy Rebel) was able to vent about a few things, such as his dismay with Sony/Epic Records, his issues with his uncle (which he states really isn't his relative), and his struggles to find brand new management.

Although he's remaining optimistic about his pending case and legal situation, both he and Rowdy are a tad bit disappointed in the lack of support from their so-called friends. He later states that Meek Mill has reached out numerous times by sending mail, and there is a possibility that 50 Cent could be his manager -- well, if he has his way, that is.  Listen up to Shmurda in the clip above.
