Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

Triumph is such a hard ****in beat, damn. That **** drop and it's a wrap.

Dope seeing half of them wearing regular fit jeans, funny as hell. That's baggy as hell for today and it's skinny compared to what they wore in 98.

That audience, I cringed.
 
I just wanna know why....

Color is questionable but I see what he was tryna do here this ain’t even that flagrant man :lol
 
So I’m way behind on the Joe Budden podcast, hard to keep up with the two episodes a week now. :{

I just finished the episode where they talk about Future. I don’t remember if we discussed that in here, but future fans how ya feel about your mans not being on drugs and still selling that image? Do ya think it was his responsibility to tell his fans he stopped drinking lean?

As a 35 year old responsible adult with kids, yes

As a 35 year old rapper pimping and exploiting your community, no

perception enables anything that comes after good or bad in this music ****

as long as future's fans like future he can do whatever the **** he wants to do good or bad

nobody likes bow wow so he cant get away with making the music future make and being a square IRL
 
So y’all bash people for rapping about a something they’re not but give Future a pass for his fairy tales? :lol:

Don’t all rapper lie though?

I don't think some of us expect much of Future

and I expect less of his fans

That's something major. Like all of a sudden if you found out Currensy stopped smoking five years ago. Much less how harmful it is, so no sane adult would blame him stopping.

I don't listen to music and expect anybody to rap exactly they life so I don't care.
I think it's odd to hold rappers to the responsibility to live what they rap when they rap violence, drugs, etc but when they do all of that they stupid for putting it in a song. I look at music the same way I see movies, it's just entertainment. I don't expect Denzel to be able to do Equalizer quality fighting so I'm not gonna expect a rapper to drink/smoke/pop pills like they rap.


We gon look down on Drake when he rap about how he gon ride around Calabasas looking to fight somebody or calling some shooters too?

I think the difference is when you find out something that is a major part of their rap persona isn't them.

Embellishing or false bravado is something people expect.

He gets made fun of in here routinely because of that

I see most rappers just rap in hyperbole, sure they do some of what they rap about but it at exactly what they say. Same way folks don't think Jay really lost 92 bricks and that he's exaggerating

but Idk, when it comes to Future it's weird how the perception is all he does is drink lean and pop pills and party but then we'll we'll have a conversation about how his music is full of him STRUGGLING with the drugs and trying to overcome them
