exactly
that was roddy mistake
he wants the association but doesn't want the stress
son a rapper but moving like he's on the run
now we figuring out who he's ducking & dodging

I'm not familiar with Roddy's history but it's the age-old convo in our culture: it's okay to be from somewhere but not be Super Thug...
Too many of us, and this transcends banging or any specific city or state, too many of us enjoy representing where we are from and promoting ourselves, in various fashions, as if those rough areas we from were rough because of
us...
But like I said I really don't know his story, sounds like he could be like Mozzy---->really from the turf, as in he grew up there and people know him, but he wasn't a factor on a street level.
@Serious @getmoney310cpt @Ol' Otis is Rod generally respected in his section or is it a pay-to-play thing?
Situations like this always remind me of Rick Ross, came in the door presenting himself a certain way, then got caught doing a few goofy stunts, but all these years he been around when have you heard muhfukkas from Carol City shytting on him? Either he took care of nikkas for life to buy loyalty lol, or there's something official about him that earned respect from the people who would know (muhfukkas from where he say he from)...
