Great, great, great post TKF.
Fiddy has lost his mind with some of the last few songs. And his videos are seriously repetitive. Right now, the money is building, but once the money is gone, people will forget that 50 Cent ever made a song.
That won't be the case with Rakim, Nas or The Blastmaster.
You know what pimp, I look at what rappers had classics, I mean classic albums and songs, I see nas,(illmatic was killer) slick rick and dougie fresh started a new movement when it came to rap songs, guys like dana dane were innovators, rakim was a genius, I was listening to his old stuff, know the ledge, paid in full, those songs are still great to listen to today, 15-20 years later. Biggie, Pac, those guys made classics.
50? his garbage becomes unbearable 1 month after it is made, his rappers llyod baanks and Ya-yo? Please, they put out pure trash!!!!!!
I laugh when I hear rappers brag about who makes more money, I mean why in the hell should music buyers care, all we care about is your product!!!! I want to be entertained, I want good music, I want to hear hits and classics, I want to see a movement, I want to hear rappers display their skill to their craft, who gives a damn if 50 makes 2 dollars per unit moved, I don't give a Fck!!!!!
Nas gets it, that is why he will be making rap records until he is 45, and who cares if he doesn't make 40 mil pushing bullshyt vitamin water, or sex tapes and action figure dolls. In a few years when clowns like 50 are long gone and their music forgotton, nas, and rakim will still be relevant....
Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser...............
