Yes, if I was a celebrity, I would only wear the expensive shyt on the red carpet events & award shows etc
Works for actors and actresses. You see paparazzi snapping them they tryna hide who they are with low baseball caps and regular clothes, I don't know why rap nikkas haven't done this. Rappers just have to stand out:palm:

No doubt if you ever get a chance spin that album shyt a masterpiece. You'll see why everyone thought he was the one.

This man legit had next and was a complete emcee at one point :mjcry:

No lies told.



Mos Def had those in the know hyped that he was next, myself included.

This song was fire. Good looks Never heard before.

Definitely give these albums a listen:

Yall foreigners are annoying. "We're supposed to be brothers!" Was a line from a Menace 2 Society robbery scene

This is something you'd know if you were actually from this culture but you ain't.

So what, nothing wrong with him being from somewhere else. There's a milliion things you dont know...most of us are bilingual at minimum. Half of ya'll aint even mastered your own language. FOH nikka 'bout "ya'll foreigners"

It Was A Song For Anybody Flashing But He Was Def Aiming At His Rap Counterparts, All Them “Backpack” Rappers Felt A Need To Throw Shade At Flashy Rappers Back Then

Would you consider De La Soul (specifically Buhloone Mindstate and Stakes Is High albums) or The Roots backpack rappers? Because it started with them.

Nothing about those verses tell me it was mainly about rappers. It could apply to them, but I don't think that was the core purpose. Now his Children's Story is different.

Or just avoid hood ass areas/atmospheres in the first place:mjpls:. These people don't love you or have any sense of kinship if they're first instinct is to take what you have and potentially kill you.

Once again yall make assumptions without knowing the facts of the case

Witness and Police have made statements showing that was a target hit not some robbery, he didn't try to fight for his jewelry like people were saying on the internet, they killed as soon as they came in, and police strongly believe the post of his location was a big factor

after they ping the cell phone towers and use the cameras in the area, they will find these guys more than likely

This nikka was trying to stunt in the hood, more than likely he was on his way to the airport and stopped there since it's close by
