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

[YBE]

Thats where your wrong people are buying that shyt. The greats are the ones that have something to say beyond the normal everyday ignorance you hear everybody else spewing.

Im not saying that rappers should be dropping "stay in school" albums but the greats have always been respected for their positive influences.

J.Cole sold more than 2chainz and gucci. And he promotes positivity and education.

Kanye blew up from talking about dropping out of college. But it wasn't because he was promoting stupidity. He was promoting taking charge of your life and making informed choices.

No one ever really finds success promoting total ignorance. Yeah 2chainznis hot today, but that will only last until the white folks above him decide it's time to move on to another bafoon.

What you're saying sounds good in theory. I'm just saying most starving artists trying to get on, aren't risking their future on that. nikkas is gonna front like a muthafukka


Also, the thug image isn't the only act rappers exploit. Even with Kanye & J. Cole......Yeezy was normal at first but, has pretty much gone Hollywood now and J. Cole ran the fly college boy image into the ground, pretending that he was the biggest, baddest nikka to ever walk on campus. Sure


Drake too. nikka made a career off of getting chicks wet when this nikka GOT NO KINDS of bytches in high school Seriously Aubrey? You wore this shyt breh.

Rappers front because if they didn't, their albums would be boring. Thus is life.

Thats new tho. When the gangster rap first started we were told its reality. The rappers are just writing songs about the things they see in their neighborhoods on a day to day basis. Now we're told that rappers are like filmmakers just writing stories to entertain the masses...

But gangster movies don't make the most profit. Family movies do by far. So why aren't rappers pushed towards making family friendly raps if its just entertainment and supply and demand?

Interesting analogy becuz if you are a young black actor or filmmaker you have a better shot at getting paid by playing a criminal than playing any other role.

Who is making these decisions? Lots of questions to be asked before we say "its just entertainment"...

Big industry isn't supporting that. They want Blacks to kill themselves hence the push for nonsense Hip Hop.

You think V-103 would dare play this in 1991. This didn't start getting play during the day till 6pm to 10 pm. That was it.

When will the lies stop? When will it end?

So the guy who was "born in the trap" raised by a "trapper" is actually a very smart man getting straight A's in school. All a gimmick.

Rick Ross - police officer
Wayne - child entertainer
Plies - registered nurse
2chainz - valedictorian
T.i. - snitch



C'mon already. How long will you champion these lames that shouldn't have a mic in the first place?

Why does everyone want to be a gangster so bad? Then when u get exposed its "just rap". Well that's unacceptable. Hip hop needs to be purged badly.

sounds to me like the south stay losing

It's not about exaggerating or creating a gimmick for yourself. I understand that most, if not all rappers embellish from time to time. My point is, that exaggeration or gimmick shouldn't equate to "Im stupid and rich" especially coming from someone who is highly educated. Tupac had a thug image that most would say was exaggerated, but he still spoke about positive things and inspired people to do better.

So graduating from college with straight A's equals losing for the South?



My times have really changed

That's a great question friend.

I want to hear about his hoop dreams. I want to know how he grew up to turn into a 4.0 avg, which I think is something to be proud of. I want to know how he hooked up with ludacris. I want to know how it felt to sit on the shelf of dtp records while Luda was out making millions. I want to know how he met his partner cap 1. I want to know what happened when his partner was incarcerated. I want to know how he got the name 2chainz. I want to know what led a fine upstanding man into the life of a trapper.

U know - gasp - a real album with storytelling rhymes . Not 16 tracks of forced punch lines over mike will made it beats.

The sad part is 2chainz is a good rapper.

"ghetto dreams" ft scarface is one of my fav songs this year.

I have nothing against the south but for almost 10 years y'all been consigning clowns like Lil Wayne and Rick Ross. Is it too much to ask for a real Street MC that new York can rock wit??

I bet you DOLLA Boy ain't have a 4.0 or the DB's.

The real dope dealers are the ones you'd never expect. They're very inconspicuous with it. But as far as 2Chainz....man college campuses are a GOLDMINE for the drug game. I wouldnt be surprised if he did.
