i understand you've come from, i understand the shit you dealt with, and how you gotta stick to your roots, but if opportunity lets you escape that shithole, then stop trying to seem noble by being the very thing you aspired to escape. yeah, that sounded pretty stupid and pretty "middle-class white american" but fuck that shit, thats the only thing i have agianst rap artists. but to those who appreciate that, well, first, to all their own, and second, i respect that. we've all got our views, this one was mine. i respect a lot of artists for where they came from, but not so much what they've become, or rather, still are.
