Rich Boy dropped out of college to be a rapper. Now he’s 40, broke and living with his parents.

If he managed to graduate from high school through a special education program then that is a good sign for the program - especially if he graduated from high school with a college acceptance and actually started the program at Tuskegee.

Nothing about his rap or demeanor in interviews indicates an intellectual or physical disability. He's clear and coherent, even through a heavy accent - which is INCREDIBLY common in Mobile.
From what I’ve heard he wasn’t slow. My coworker went to school with him and only said he was a regular guy and pretty chill before he blew up. Plus if he got accepted into Tuskegee then he had to have some sense.

Positive way to look at it but being once Famous and dead broke is pure hell.
Probably depends on the level of fame. Son wasn't that big that he couldn't get a regular job or sell houses or some shyt. It's different if he was top of the a list celebrities or some shyt. He could go plenty of places and not even be recognized. Pure hell in my opinion is fighting and clawing to be rich or financially stable and working all your life just to hit 55 and die. Like what the fukk was even the point.

Ayo how many Mobile nikkas we got in here? :why:

His debut album is still hard as hell to this day. Throw Some Ds is probably a top 3 most nostalgic song from my childhood. Bigger Than The Mayor & Kool-Aid, Kush and Convertibles were hard ass mixtapes too.

I feel like the industry fell back from fw Polow da Don after that shyt happened with Usher & his artists caught the effect of it too.

Why can't people ever do both? Found out one of our employees literally filmed a music video out the back of a work van six months after he quit.


:dead:

The video is still online.
Cuz you'd easily be putting in 16 hour days damn near trying to balance that out, you gotta travel and network, do shows, shadow other people, etc. etc.

And gig work is random and you have super small window to accept, if he had to randomly call out 2-3 times on short notice y'all woulda fired him anyway



It's way easier for people to DJ on the side but everyone thinks what they gotta say is so important :francis:

Too many rappers have too much pride, they'd rather be out here scamming, doing pods, becoming struggling influencers like a teenager and stuff than go and get a regular job :yeshrug:

Almost similarly how many would rather cop a g-wagon, rollie and rent an expensive crib than buy a house. Cause your whole thing rests upon you being (ghetto) richer and flier than the average man.

I’m just telling you what she said and I trust her word especially about something such as that.

Homie probably took some entry level classes, but majoring in doesn’t equal graduating in.

No more than me applying to Harvard makes me a Rhodes Scholar.
You trust your wife :ufdup: she mightve gotten the D thrown at her
