What if you’re not rapping @ all?
I’ve listened to “Believe It” about 300 times this year. No follow up.

As the descendant of african slaves brought to the southern part of america I understand why black people love the concept of partying(up in the club) that was one of the only ways we as a people had to release steam from such a stressful lifestyle. To me its more of a black cultral issue than a hip hop one. Just my opinion.

So whats the story with this dude? His albums coming out soon, his albums not coming out. He’s retiring from rap, he’s not retiring from rap. Him and Just Blaze are cool, him and just blaze arent cool. WTF?

If radio and television refuses to be the one’s to push this new movement in intelligence in Hip Hop then I say it’s up to the Hip Hop blogs to be the one’s to spark the light.

Seriously if he feels so sincere about the music and how it’s affecting children then put the music out for free. Stop waiting for your label to make move.
I see where he’s coming from and I’m disgusted by some of the views I see but if I was a rapper or poet or even a painter and I thought my craft could make a difference on the level in which he’s talking I wouldn’t wait for someone to help me display it to make a move.
A gentleman like myself would tell a friend who would tell a friend. They love to use Barack Obama as an example or Dr. King but they ignore the movement that began from a grassroots level. Obama didn’t wait for CNN, MSNBC, the newspapers or the public. They waited for him.

I wish I could hear that kind of thought process go into some of his songs. Maybe I’m out of the loop, but the music I’ve heard from him doesn’t reflect the kind of issues he’s tackling in this video.

I wanna know what this dude means about new rappers coming up now? Is he tryin to convey that there is no money in the game now and that the game is over saturated with rappers, and its no way to make a living or what? Is he sayin this due to the decline in record sales and/or the fact that people should spend there time doing something else to make money cuz this game is a dead end.? gimme some feedback.,
