nikka said he had a triple double.

In a pickup game at that










Yet I know nikkas like that










I am one of those nikkas

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.

what about raising kids? whats a song that is realistically achievable.

so hiphop know how they got the material things to rap about,...some show money, some tour money, some licensing, etc...but the rap song message is really limited...

I am going through a bunch of songs, I use to view in the past...now its not realistic...the fancy prize is cool, but one does not have to be a rapper to attain those things...

then unless rappers are saving, they gonna go broke 7 to 10 years...

I was going to quote part of the song but it's the whole damn thing One of my favorite Blu songs, in part, because the shyt is so relatable

Everybody doesn't have kids. Everybody don't love their kids, everybody don't raise their kids. So again how is it something everyone can relate to?

the content of rap music is static

the listeners have kids, the rappers have kids, fans have kids...

what music would be appropriate for kids? its short sighted.

the artists have songs/regarding kids
jay/kanye - the joy
nas - daughters
eminem - dad gon crazy

Full-court, half-court, in my room

Full-game, 3-on-3, 21

Real game, video game, dreams

I was keeping track of those stats

Well if you want to get to appropriate for kids to relate to, Kriss Kross's Totally Krossed Out album is all about the everyday life of kids. Lil Soldiers' Boot Camp album too...

You are asking about what kids can relate to in hip hop, but most hip hop music is not created with children in mind...

As for songs that relate to everyday life, I think everyone that has posted in here has given you what your OG post asked for and more
