Or describe the issues all folks go through...

seems hip-hop music is skewed toward a faux/careers, luxury vehicles, fancy clothes, girls, etc - which some are fortunate to live..

there are songs of the struggle...

though what are some of the songs which describe "average" life?

People are gonna hate but to me So Far Gone had the vibe of an artist trying to be himself and make it in the game and gave an idea of what that looked like for him. The exaggerations and shyt kinda played into the idea of the struggle to not lose who he is in the process of becoming famous. I think thats why so many people related to that mixtape. They could see themselves going through the same identity crisis if in his situation.

what top 10 career are rappers chatting about?

I don't have a top 10 career, so i wouldn't relate and neither does anyone in my circle. We make money but it ain't no "career" shyt. So we wouldn't relate anyway. I relate to Nas' music for the most part. T.I., even Rick Ross. Y'all say Ross is fake and nikkas can't relate, okay nikkahz ain't got audemers(sp?) but nikkas be flossing wih rolexes, tag heur, etc. nikkas don't got maybachs and phantoms, nikkas be stunting in Caddys, Buicks, Avalons, Chrysler 300, Chrgers and Benzs. It's the same shyt He just doing it at a higher level.
