Hip Hop Is Dead!
Big ups to Nas for putting that statement out there. A lot of rappers jumped on that 5 minutes of fame ish when he made that comment but he was telling the truth. Real rappers know what real rap is. I hear these dudes in the rap industry talking about they're going platinum so rap must not be dead, wrong! Yo if you not spitting metaphors and slappin listeners upside the head with some knowledge then your raps are dead! They're not uplifting the conscious! They're not ampin the crowd up to feel proud of who they are! They not givin........ (Click Here for more)

Jay Z...Da dude is just a beast in the industry. "Chargin dem dudes double!" Aiight way back when I heard him rappin fast and ended it with "you better spit that sh#!t ouuuttttt"...I knew the dude was destined for greatness. When I heard the joint where he said he was brooklyn's own, I knew he was the truth. I lived in the projects in Jersey city and you would not be able to relate to lines like "I'm from the other side where other guys dont walk too much and girls in the projects wouldn't f#!K us said we talk to much so they ran up to tompkins thought them dudes they could trust I dont know what they thought them dudes was foul just like us..." thats real talk right there. Girls in the projects do not like messin with dudes that live in the same project. Don't let me get to where he said "the plan was to get funds and escape off the set, to achieve this goal quick I sold all my weight wet" Yo, if you didnt live it you cant even begin to know what this dude is talkin about. Only those triple beam niccas can relate to it. Even when he said in another rap about shooting his brother and the gun was burnin his waist. Those are little details that only a dude who actually let off shots know what he talkin about. So I peeped the dude was the truth a long time ago. Then when I found out how he kicked open the industry doors by forming his own label and tossin a bag of money on the desk of a radio station dj and sayin "is this enough?" It was a wrap, a real hustler knows money talks. The dj didnt take it but he showed him how to go about it. Let me say this about the whole Nas battle. Jay Z won that battle. Don't get it twisted, Jay Z got murdered on the Either joint, but at the end of the day....To step up and own the dude thats bumpin his gums about you? To make the same dude come work for you??? Nas had to all of a sudden check in with the boss...Jay Z. Now from a hood point of view.....Jay Z killed any chance Naz had of winning the battle with that move. Jay gets mad props for that move...like he said...."this is chess not checkers" lol. Now he running around with his trophy piece of r&b on his shoulder. Together, according to sources in 2008 they were the highest paid celebrities. Beating out Will and Jada Smith. If you going to do it then do it big Jay.

Lol, Mr. No Bitchassness, this dude is a beast with it. Yo the dude said he'll work for free just to get through the door! He did it and now he got all these hungry dudes n dudetts following in his footsteps in the music industry. The father of internship. Difference is, he came through the door with nothing, the artist he got working for free is going Platinum! Eat on Diddy Eat on! Last I checked all your artist was over 18. Diddy took nothing and turned it into something. At the end of the day, the ends justify the means. A lot of people say that Diddy be doin a lot of dirt to people, but at the end of the day......who isn't? He got s@#tted on by Andre Horrel and worked for free! He took what he learned and turned it into his success. So now he's in Andre Horrel's position and dudes/dudettes need to follow in his footsteps. Real talk, people don't want to pay their dues anymore. Everybody feel once they shake the nicca hand they're going to skip the bacon and go straight to steak. Serve up some bacon and they ready to starve then take the bacon and be happy until the steak dinner comes. At the end of the day..listen up..."You gotta got through Sh#!t to get sh#!t

Dre! Mannnn..Dre been through hell in a hand basket. If anybody ever had to go through sh#!t to get Sh#!t it was this dude. The dude got talent, brains, and a dont give up mentality. He had to bounce through a few camps before he figured out how to do it on his own. I can remember in one of his chronic albums where he said give him one more platinum plaque and then f@#k rap you can have it back! Along came eminem and made a platinum plaque look like gold! Dre had done it, straight up doctored his success story. He is the owner of Interscope records, with people like eminem, the game, and 50¢ signed to the label.

When Eminem first came out I said the dude was going to do it big. I had dudes sayin "A white boy?" I told them to just listen to his lyrics, but they couldn't get past the fact that he was white. I could hear it in his lyrics though. Look at the kid now. Blew threw the roof! He didn't try to be gangsta with it. All he did was be himself and rap about his hell in his life. Which is what real rap started out as. You rapped about your enviroment and how you felt about it. Yo he came off on that "marsh" rap. I'm color blind when it comes to rap, all I know is skillz. Eminem gets you caught up in stories that you stay hooked in until the end. Reminds me of how I used to get people caught up in my lyrics back in the day when I had a lot of time on my hands...hint.

Real Recognize Real!

50 cent was shot 9 times, yo 9 times! On the streets you respect the nicca that hit his ass 9 times. The reason 50 cent gets props for bein real is because he is who he is. The hood is made up of all types and real recognize 50 cent as one of those dudes who has the hood mentality. If you not a part of his camp, then it's f@#k you! In the hood, if you got a beef with a dude, then you got a beef with his whole camp, vice versa. So if 50 cent catch a dude from his camp bumpin his gums with the enemy, he cut him loose. In the hood you might get dropped! That's real! Next....Look at 50 cent track record! The dude got hit 9 times and it still didn't take his heart. He still out there talkin s@#t! Like he said, he don't back down! In the hood, if you got a problem with somebody out there talkin sideways about you, you step to the dude. Wellllll...50 cent kicked the doors to rap wide open talkin s@#t on EVERYBODY! Nobody stepped to the kid! I'm not promoting violence, the thing I have a problem with is these rappers talkin about gun play and all sorts of reckless s@#t, then when they get stepped to, they wanna get in a bumpin gums match! So yea you got fake rap gangsta's and fake gangsta's on youtube and myspace and anywhere else on the internet downplaying the man's hood credibility but REAL RECOGNIZE REAL and 50¢! He took the hood mentality to hollywood and still getting paid for it. They cut the check for $300 million for dude! That's hustlin! All haters need to fall back.
