2Chainz says that being a successful rapper is dangerous

[TNOT]

A teacher I used to work with said the same thing happens with athletes. But he brought up an interesting perspective.

He said their money grows but oftentimes their circle doesn’t evolve with their career.
He mentioned that you not supposed to act brand new and automatically leave everybody in ur past behind, but he said he’d seen a lot of athletes carry people into their new life who weren’t worth a damn in the first place.

I couldn’t see it, but he said a lot of these set ups be inside jobs.

My ass over there looking at him like
Imagine becoming successful, doing the right thing and bringing ur crew on, and then having the people u put on, FUKK U OVER?!

I expect shyt from strangers. But ur Day 1s?! Who u helped?! shyt hurts just thinking about it.

But yeah, apparently sometimes it ain’t outsiders coming for you, but the people in ur own house.

Friend or Foe

You just will never know
Who to trust
In a world that’s o so cold

Ice Cube, Kam and Solo were all cool and they fell out for whatever reason and Solo beat him up. Industry shyt!!!

Eazy E and Suge never touched Dre. Dre left both and went on make nearly billions. And they were mad about INDUSTRY shyt!!!

Suge is doing a life sentence, with the highest bail set in history because of looking for Dr Dre

Life is a non-rapper, the only checking in we do is at the airport, word to @dora_da_destroyer

Funny how it’s always the rappers who glorify the streets saying this

this. Wonder if this is an issue for Donald Glover or Logic

 

[Michael's Black Son]

At some point we're going to have to reach the conclusion that mainstream hip hop is NOT entertainment. The rappers literally tell us this.

the wild shyt is that cats like Tyler or Gambino are probably telling us more truth than so called street rappers who are openly talking about bricks, guns that we know they don’t use and street credibility that doesn’t translate when an opp comes at them anyway.

if you’re in the street moving so much weight and basically your own boss then it must be a step down signing with a Jew, having his company decide your release date and then him eating off of your sales since he loaned you money to pay for beats and jewels.

out of these new gen rappers I only believe the lean/pill ones because those motherfukkas die every other month so CLEARLY they are living that life.

Bullshyt...you put out gangster, killer music then gangstas and killers will show up...i aint never heard of dead prez gettin pressed...

 

[Mowgli]

Luciferians don't like each other

How about making dumb ass decisions can be dangerous......rap didn't kill pop smoke......awful decision making killed pop smoke. Nikkas want to live in the streets for real for real and blend that with a legit musical career....ok whatever, but when the street life has the consequences it has, don't go blaming hip hop nikka

 

[xCivicx]

I don’t see conscious rappers with these problems

But they all still ride around with security

Why?

 

[xCivicx]

He'll no. Plenty of rappers dont floss,,or floss less, because they see it as exploitation.

Who?

Even j cole and Kendrick have braggadocious bars

We not talking about biggie....we talkin bout Pop Smoke nikka.....and was Tupac movin stupid, yes....and so was a bunch of other artists I’ll miss, I wasn’t sayin all rappers make bad decisions....but a lot of them do and hip hop doesn’t have anything to do with that
