I'll start it off with this dude T.I. ...

What got me thinking about this is the other night I was watching some T.I. and Tiny and dude T.I. was talking about how he was really bout dat and how he had to struggle growing up.

Thing is I've heard conflicting stories about his past so I don't really know.

Basically I'm getting tired of wondering if these rappers are spitting truth or fictional bars into my headphones. Want some NT detectives to do their homework.

Hoping this thread becomes huge with some of ya'll knowledge about the rap game. Wanna clear the air once and for all.
 
First off what id the definition of real that you are searching for.... because quite frankly all it takes is to watch a dudes demeanor & a few interviews and it becomes quite clear who was really about the life they portray and who isnt.

And B4 anything starts ALL RAPPERS LIE AND EXAGGERATE ALOT

So you actually wondering if rappers are really out here leaving Columbia and now getting it in by the metric ton?

TI got out of big charges very fast. Makes me think he sus. Never was a fan of him. Only a few real street dudes who rap. Most can't stay out of jail. Smh.

No debates will end here. But to me this is less about who's "real" than it is who is a fraud and who isn't.

You don't look at the dudes from De La, or QTip and say those dudes are phony based on their music. Same for Kendrick, or Common, or Big Sean or whoever.

Same with Gucci and TIP. Cormega, Capone. Joe (HA!). Beanie Sigel. Yea, you can say what you want about how TIP skated his charges...but he caught the charges.

But there's some dudes talking mad **** on an epic scale and that **** talk seems to not match up with their history or their personas at all.

All rappers "lie or exagerrate", sure. So do all humans. But there's dudes going way too far with it.

And then when people condone that by saying "all rappers do it", when the majority of them don't do it at anywhere near the same level, that's weak to me.

You can't condemn every rapper as a phony or a fraud because of a handful of dudes.
