- its not the music. ive never heard anything from dude. i have heard of him though and i do know he's affiliated with Gucci (who i also have never heard any of his music)
- im just tired of us getting in a potition to actually help, to actually educate or assist in educating but we choose to do otherwise. im tired of 'being stupid' being glorified. im tired of the excuse of "well, they from the hood so you know they gone ball out first".
- i feel the same about pro athletes from the hood and any other celebrity making money that continues to get in trouble .
........the things that got us here? thats a whole 'nother story. but right here? right now? we have the resources to do something about our situation, but we refuse to by glorifying clowns like these, giving them a pass to 'do them' and it speads thoroughout the urban communities and to our children.
....on a music realted note? its funny, you take the 180 degree opposite of waka and they call it 'cornball rap'. cats be quick with that "get that cornball bs outta here, i aint trying to think when i listen to music". which says you'd rather listen to a dude tell you over and over how lame you are, how big his **** is, and how he's $$#%*@# your girl. so whos the real cornball?
.......and these clowns in here repping they hood?? that is by far one of the greatest indicators of a lack of intelligence. thing is, no matter how much you rep your street/corner/block/city/county/state, they dont care about you. your state will lock your *!! up just as fast as anyone. someone from your street/corner/block/city/county/state will kill you just as quick as anyone if its as hood as you say it is. clowns..........CLOWNS. nothing reps you more than YOU, period. it'd be one thing if cats was repping they family or ideas. you got cats claiming a piece of land like they really do own it, like if they get in a bind they can just call the mayor on some "yeah its me", and its all good.
....no, we must not come to expect it, thats the problem.

- there was a time when it was profitable to them. so whats the difference between then and now?? we started letting them tell us what we wanna hear instead of the other way around.....
- people kill me with the age old supply and demand argument when it comes to this. as simple a concept as supply and demand is the problem and solution is even simpler than that, we're just too busy having fun 'being stupid' and 'promoting stupid' all in the name of getting dough, getting !@@*@, and stunting to realize.
