This is some of the realist s**t I’ve ever heard. As an artist I have been waitng for someone to speak on what hip-hop has become and where we need to go. All I’d like to add is that it’s cool 2 b a gangsta if that’s really and truly what u are. If you’re not be who you are and stop fabricating lyrics. Hip-hop has gotten so confusing the artist portraying “the role” actually start to believe it and in turn the youth think everybody including themselves have to b hardcore.Some really live it; some don’t it’s time to clarify the differences. If u dont live it dont be afraid to make music that reflects your true lifestyle.We need different aspects of African American lives other than what stereotypes provide. Afterall that is what music really is self reflection & expression. Dont worry I’ll show you unlearned artist how 2 b true 2 self.Until I enter the industry try harder 2 b real.
