      Naaa that was hypocritical. I got it made he rapped about having a dog with a solid gold bone. He wasn't saying nothing then. He's a part of the blueprint of how cash money rapped about things they didn't have.

I be listening to all this new era of rap with they Elementary wordplay flow Smh & ain't working for me. 1980's & 1990's was really the GOLDEN era of Hip-Hop. Today it's the copper water down era smh no message in the lyrics, no more lyricist that can elevate your I.Q. Radio stations People cosigning bullshit from this era smh. A&Rs are not looking for a real lyricist like back in the day's to bring real hip-Hop back. We let other companies come in our cypher of music & control & dictate this looney tunes bullshit that's going on smh.

      Look back in the times and see that MOST of the hit songs were also just simple hooks and catchy tunes and not rly good lyrics or skills, when you look at the commerce youll alway s just see bullshit but you gotta dig deeper (expections are again cole or kendrick cause they made a business with concious music)
