First of all, why do the old rappers have to retitre, why cant there be mutual respect like in any other genre
For example in Country - Would you say anything to Willie Nelson if he wanted to suddenly drop an album?
or in Rock N Roll - i dont here One Republic dissing Aerosmith or U2 saying retire so that the new cats can eat
The way i was raised is if your good your good and your life/career depends on your hustle
So if Kool G Rap, Jay-Z, Nas,LL or FACE or the elders want to drop an album cause they feel like it whats the big deal, it should have NO effect on thenew-comers...I truly feel there is enough room and money for everybody, its up to you to realize your potential
2nd WHY IS RAP THE LEAST MUSICAL, BUT HELD WITH SOOOOO MANY RULES
I really dont understand it - I mean RAP is basically derived off other people music - but it is upheld to
first - not have any ghostwriters
NO biting (even though it was founded on stealin)
No Snitching and a gang of other rules
RAP has become a walking contradiction, BE YOURSELF, BUT IF HALF THE GAME RAPPED ABOUT THE STUFF THEY WANT TO RAP ABOUT NO ONE WOULD LISTEN TO IT...I meanselling Ki's etc etc, c'mon now...and to quote Joe Budden - If everyone selling ki's and being the boss, where the lacky's @???
I dont know, just had to get some things off my mind
