Let me start this comment by saying I’m a avid fan of both Joe and common (although they’re not the only ones guilty of this). But Am I wrong for feeling like Haiti keeps getting exploited by these rappers for impoverished imagery ?

fat joe an common grew up very poor their used to seeing things like what goes on in haiti. not as hard but their moms or dad have and it passed on. fat joe an common do a lot of songs in the streets they show the world that their are ppl still going threw hard times so they show it to the world.some ppl might look at it like “their useing poor ppl and poor places too seem tuff by recording their.but if u never grew up like that or had family members grow up like that u wouldent understand. but i think by now ppl should step in and help

but also ppl have dif expectations,not saying they love living like that.but like some ppl like driving a reg car reg apt reg friends.and sometimes ppl with other expectations force ppl to feel less of a person cause they dont drive a benz or live in a big house.like u can have 2 jobs in the mall have a reg apt reg car have cool friends an be happy as hell, but some ppl that want more try to take your comfort zone from you and try to make you a slave too their high expectations cause anything less they would go crazy.and they live off the energy of you wanting what they have.its a mind game. most rich guys do that too woman with less money to try to hold them. ppl are being control like that.

I wish they would show the country’s beauty for once instead of profiting from other people’s misery to give their videos a more “grimy” look.
