It doesn't seem like people with the skill are becoming famous because they aren't being shot in their face with a rocket launcher or something like that
I heard part of Slim Thugs 'Like A boss" or wahtever, and that song really sucked heh, I mean I think I could do better, and Lil' Jon.. I like him and everything but he doesn't really rap... heh
What you think

I feel the same way, and i see what you mean.. Especially with that song "Soldiers" by Destiny's Child, the hip hop main stream perpetuates the bad boy, street thug image too much.. i mean, it was fun back in the NWA and Death Row days, when it was real, and no body did it for attention or even bragged, they just reported what they saw.. But now, you got songs like "Soldiers" and you got 50 cent getting shot 9 times and bragging, Game got shot 5 times and repeats it over and over, it's like, you have to be a low life gangster, or you had to have gad a fucked up life with no father just to be taken serious in the industry.. |
