But bro, this is not the case.
If you watch any interviews, Waka is definitely an educated person. Not a dumb nikka AT ALL.
When you hear hood nikkas speak, it's easy to differentiate nikkas that's book dumb vs actually educated. Waka falls on the actually educated side.
nikka fell off financially and they most likely cashed the nikka out.
Either that or misinformation actually works on smart people. Which boggles my mind because seeing things clearly is something I was gifted with, but I thought it was common.
That shyt is a gift similar to the powers kids have in Stephen King movies. SK said himself that he thinks highly empathetic people have hidden powers, or what he calls it "the shine".
