Finally First Yes
LOL ok well the first one straight genius all the Hov album covers that was great. I just wish the new album’s cover was more like the classic Jay-Z album covers its still a really cool and artistic cover but it’s just not consistent with the past covers so it seems kinda random. And now for the second video really really sad see people this is what happens to Hip-hop greats when we don’t respect our past and focus way too much on the present cheesy suit commercial from greats like kid n play I mean hell the guys just trying to make a living but c’mon people who doesn’t love house party someone please save this guy kid from himself before any further embarrassment is done

As funny as that is people forget how much kid&play did.. They pretty much handed us the “Martin Show” and made Tisha Campbell every young dudes fantasy date. They also launched a few dope comics…. Had a really cool run and made people respect the skills of Robin Harrison who (RIP) was Bernie Mac (RIP) before Bernie Mac….
I applaud the dude for staying busy…
Jay-Z no comment!

Hov’s commercial was really good. Crazy creative in its simplicity…just do what you already did.
As for Kid…smh i guess cause they said “comedian” in that description he’s supposed to be able to pull that off but its not flying for me.

Can’t front on Kid, he trying to get that check anyway he can, ex. stand up comedian, reality shows, old school rap tours, etc. Maybe he dont want a 9-5. Dont knock him 4 trying to put food on his table. Some people jokin, but when they leave their computer the will be sayin “Welcome to GoodBurger, may I take your order?”
