2chainz "ghetto dreams" is top 5 hip hop song in 2012!

[MeachTheMonster]

Who the fukk is "We," nikka???

You are a grown man, 2Chainz don't represent you, or black people in general. He represents 2Chainz.

It's funny how yall are quick to call him the c00n, but yall care so much about how the white man sees you.

and Im tired of yall talkin about what kids should be hearing. Kids need parents more than rappers. Stop blaming rappers for fukked up kids and a fukked up society.

You tried to justify 2chainz purposeful ignorance by saying "people buy it so it's not his fault" you said WE should applaud him for taking advantage of the system. So who is "WE"?

Notice I haven't said anything about white people. I said he should carry himself better for HIS own community. Kids and young adults in the hood need to see successful black people who aren't drug dealers or basketball players. And you are correct kids need parents more than rappers, but with the lack a parental guidance kids turn to other things to get their influences. As an educated man with a powerfull voice in the community he should be promoting education and positivity, not ignorance and negativity.

These artist have no integrity

YEAH, 2CHAINZ HAD WAY MORE INTEGRITY WHEN HE WAS A TRAPPER RATHER THAN A 4.0 STUDENT, YOU RITE B

 

[Rominati]

Chainz always comes off eloquent in his interviews anyways. I doubt he had a legit 4.0 tho, nikkas is embelishing.


But besides what the fukk is wrong with going to college and being a rapper



Ya kno ASAP Rocky, Nipsey Hussle, n Wale went to college too right?

 

[diggy]

You can see this in his narduwaur interview... No matter to me.. Dude sound intelligent when talking about property

2 chainz is a clown he could have made the same songs without being all extraand gtfo outta here with him being a dealer while maintaining a 4.0. Dude was a ludacris weed carrier until he switched his whole style up and sold it to the public

do you know how old 2chainz is? his school days were long before he got signed with ludacris.

whats so extra about him? hes not bussin crazy guns and gooning it up. he makes goofy dopeboy comedy raps and strip club songs. he can do that all he wants. this shouldnt be an issue unless he gets exposed for never actually being a tall, sloppy, goofball drug dealer from some backwoods town in georgia.i just dont care for the super-stupidity.

 

[Barney Pimpson]

Aint that shyt obvious.

Whats that supposed to mean?

 

[@ReallyReal]

I missed this info....so yall saying 2 Chainz graduated college with a 4.0 average....

what is dude major.......

Whats that supposed to mean?

It means it's obvious you don't know what goes on in college. How was that confusing?

So are the things 2chainz raps about things that 40 year old college educated man should be talking about?

If there was a 40 year old goofy nikka standin in the club in hipster glasses and fubu jeans tryin to fit in with the young crowd and holler at all the chicks, we would call him an idiot right?

And you dont know what goes on in the street. Anybody with half a brain thats been in that environment can tell that 2chainz is a gimmic. From all that costume jewelry he wears to the way he handles himself in interviews. he aint built like that. the image he portrays in his music is a fraud

Whenever black people talk about someone is an embarrassment to their race, they're embarrassed in front of white people. I can sit in a room full of people of all races and see some black hoodlum walk in and I won't feel like the rest of them are lookin at me funny. Even if they are, fukk em. What are they gonna do to me.

I ain't justifying anything, my point is, none of it matters. He's an entertainer! That's it. anything you get out of him after that is just icing on the cake.

In what world do you live in that just because a person went to college, that he's qualified to be a role model, or a voice in the community? We don't know how he thinks? He might not want to be a voice. Maybe he send his family members thru college like T.I. Maybe he uses his wealth to enrich his own people. He doesn't have a moral obligation to his fans. All he has to do is make em dance or sing or what ever the fukk makes them buy the album.

Easiest solution, if you don't like it, don't patronize it.

Right.

Because I said 2 Chainz gimmick was real life, right?

That's what I said, right?

Yea. Right.

I don't quite understand this thread.. I understand the OP's point perfectly ... he has created an ignorant persona in hip hop with terrible rapping skills to boot ... and it's not in line with his actual self

it's not in line with other rappers embellishments to me.. why is "being stupid" an acceptable gimmick?

Because people buy it. That's it. You might not like it, I might not like it, but enough people like it for him to make a career out of it.

I saw him on first take, and I have his trurealigion mixtape, he don't seem like that much of a dummy to me at all. He's just an entertainer. and he'd be out of busineess if he wasn't entertaining people. I bet some of the same people shiitin on him and guys like him are the same ones that paid for his album.

I'll ask you this, what would be different if he dropped out of college, was a bad student in college, or dropped out of high school?

I never said he was an embarrassment to our race. I said he is an embarrassment to himself, and we shouldn't condone his purposeful ignorance just cause he's making a little money.

Can't argue this too much except I belive in giving back to the community and helping others. If I was in his position i would carry myself differently, and the entertainers that go down in history are the ones that take their celebrity status serious and work to be positive roll models. Tupac was as thugged out as any other rapper, but he still promoted intelligence, integrity, love, education and plenty of other positive things, which is why people remember him so fondly.

I didnt say he SHOULD have a voice in the community I said he DOES. Due to the lack of successful and positive parents or role models kids look to celebrities for influences. If he doesn't want to be a role model to kids then he shouldn't promote his music to the kids. His music is made for and promoted to kids and young adults. You don't see too many 40 year old dudes runnin around listening to 2chainz. So if he is going to gain money and popularity by appealing to kids and young adults I feel he should offer them a positive roll model. You are correct he doesn't have a moral obligation to help anybody, but if our wealthy influential people don't help us who will?

Easiest solution, if you don't like it, don't patronize it.

I don't and most people with sense don't. The topic came up here on a DISCUSSION board so I gave my opinion.
