Bout damn time...I knew him and Game were gonna be one in the same when it came having kids...bout damn time. Probably his REALEST song ever. For that much respect.

Niggas talk bad about drake...but if you CAN RAP...then you can rap. That to me was drake's best verse. Easy. People saying he soft, is just some niggas who scared to give they mama a hug kuz they afraid hugging your mama is for soft niggas. Some of you kids need therapy. Or maturity. Humans are complex creatures, and if you're the same exact way, every day...you're a truly miserable individual. Let these rappers breathe and enjoy the music. Right now, to me, and I been fucking with common since I used to love H.E.R....but as far as this no name, indirect battle of wits Drake won that 1st round. And he shitted on kobe wife...lol kobe was a dumb nigga. Tiger wife got so much money she bought a 12 million dollar mansion, just to demolish it. That bitch need her ass hit upside the head with a 9 iron. What you take the money for if you don't know what to do with it? If kobe ex take that 4 million dollar ring and throw it in the ocean, I hope she get pushed in right after and its shark season...its some evil shit to take a nigga money...but you deserve an unfortunate violent situation to take a man's HARD EARNED money just to burn it up. "Bitch you wasn't with me shooting in the gym!" Quote of the year for next 2-3 months at least! lmao Finally that dude french need to not ever sing on a track ever again. This shit outside of drake was not a good look. Even ross, and I fucks with ross heavy, him and french made this a wack verse sandwich with drake fire ass verse stuck in the middle...

How you clown yourself like that...50 can't be pranked...? That's what you do when someone gets you...you retaliate. He probably would respect you more for standing your ground you weak minded dumb fuck...

Nah she been around for a minute...she around nicki minaj age...she ain't no spring chicken...its just that like with any other groupie, back in the day she was too busy being starstruck. These rappers really do be paying. I messed with a couple chicks who were like kat stacks. It trips me out how rappers/ball players get caught up on groupie love like that. I'm like damn, these niggas can get/pay for bad chicks in any spot they're at...why pay to bring a chick from another state just to bang her out? Why bring sand to the beach? Now, I don't like when everybody wants to discredit a rapper based on being real, but all that caking they doing got to stop. I don't agree with how those pimps came at Ice T, but I understand now. Caking is the worst...

The game album is better in one way because like you said the production is better and lyricism isn't even an issue, "born in the trap" was nice off of there too. Jeezy don't even try, just speaks street for the most part. But the jeezy album is better in the other way because it really is what alot of ppl like me are dealing with...whereas the game is married and settled down, having kids now, so his lane...to me, is in line with jayz. I wish jay would make more records of his actual life, kuz i think he too scared to rap for grown folks living that grown life. If dudes think jay still worried about shining on niggas...lol...gone and believe that shit if you want to. Back to what I was saying tho, jeezy album is more relevant to what I'm going through. So "I do" "way too gone" and "all we do" gets heavy rotation...

Nah he thinking right...FUCK JAIL...anybody down with that shit is a damn fool. I tell people all the time, if you went to jail once, falsely accused or hustling or whatever, that 1st time is damn near by default. That shit don't count...but to keep going back...that's a sign to me that you are either gay and missed fuckin other men in the ass...or you are REALLY gay and missed getting fucked in the ass. Kuz after the 1st time you go, you should get your mind right and never go back to jail again.

That's exactly it...there is no difference...which is why in some of my posts I divert to it. Arguing over who is better with words or who hasn't lied, who has the most money, or even who is gay on the low is no different than what they do on the political blogs. Each rapper is a candidate, every cd is their policy, and every fan of those rappers are a part of their campaign.

Wait...you're right satwn, please forgive me for accidentally using a brain cell. Let's get back to arguing over rapper's rank on forbes list, or talking about how many worship satan in the illuminati, or better yet let's sit back watch everyone get into a debate over a blogger's opinion...then watch how that somehow seems to always end up somewhere in the realms of their homoerotic fantasies. Lets keep that up, since you obviously know what's good for hiphop...

Its actually $40 per check.

Now I'm not trying to label you, but you call yourself Anastasia, which is coincidentally one of Ross mixtapes Albert Anastasia...yet you criticize him like he garbage knowing good and damn well ross make better music...but I digress... Media sheep? what does it make you when you all your evidence is from THE MEDIA? Its like you "anastasias" don't even think before you speak. He's not supposed to do more to clear his name, no more than Obama needed to defend going to Rev Wright church who was a racist. All you have to say is "No, I didn't do it." Until you can prove he did it, then you yourself need quit using the MEDIA to attempt to assassinate one's character. Libel is easy money in court.

I could see if yall said HIV, but he don't have AIDS. If you got full blown AIDS you can't hide that, but much worse you can't even go nowhere kuz your immune system can't fight off anything, and from what I see, he not traveling in a bubble... I sometimes wonder why people are so obsessed with not just finding out about conspiracies, but having the moxie to feel the whole world needs to know. I don't know if they noticed yet but people for the most part don't even give a damn. If you read the bible, they didn't even believe Jesus and he was doing miraculous things. If they didn't believe him and fed 5,000 people with 1 piece of fish, how you think anyone will believe you and you're just pulling things out of the air and manipulating certain things much like lawyers do in courts. Just saying...

I guess dude didn't take Gucci Mane's Stay Strapped 101 class. Gucci has shown he will survive any random gun toting hater's attacks.

Ross will always have 50 don't...the ability to make good music. You know and I know and everyone else know the people who been buying 50 albums are not from the hood. And people always say young money buy their own albums...I think 50 do the same, because I don't see how with no promo, no vids, no spins how he even sells the little bit he does now. Maybe outside the us? Sure. Even eve(ruffryder) clothing line sells overseas. What's that? Didn't know eve had a clothing line? That's kinda like what gunit clothing is like right now...lol

That racist shit is fictional don't fall for it. That's why he got my vote. Obama just wasn't ready. Paul got too much logic, and the fact he's self made speaks volumes. I think dude deserves a chance.

That shit been exposed, Ron Paul ain't did no shit like that. People came up with that shit, kuz everything dude says makes sense. So kill that racist talk. That is all...

I thought the song was funny as shit...kuz its true as fuck. If lil kim would've been cool, she'd be platinum again. But this ain't really a battle...kuz lil kim don't know to how to rap, and nicki basically not even trying to really serve her up. I don't even know why lil kim keep trying get at her, I don't care who started it, because kim is not a battle rapper. Nicki is so far out there, she making it to where a female can't even have breathing room. She's trying to hog every lane in this game, and any lane close to it...mc lyte was right, kuz it look like now she want that gwen stefani lane, that nelly furtado/fergie lane....she really trying to lock some shit up. Kim could've played her cards right and she'd be hot in the rap game again while nicki taking this pop music detour...just sayin...

I agree...in this day and age when r&b is really dead right now that sure thang was a banger....it was a slow burner, no doubt. I put a lot of chicks on to it and they still bang that and I don't wanna be loved....so he had the music...but instead of tweeting about he should just go hard the next go round. True talent doesn't go unnoticed too long...

Maybe that's why her and nicki don't get along...???

Well the fact still remains...this nigga forgot how to make a hook, this singing shit is for the birds. 50 says he reads comments...ahem: (steps on soapbox) 50 PLEASE QUIT THAT SOFT SINGSONGY HOOK SHIT. Leave that shit for Drake and Kanye...(steps off soapbox) I was gassed for a cool minute off that redrum song and that cream song off the war angel mixtape. I thought that he found his zone. But apparently that redrum must have been a throwaway from the grodt days...kuz he can't buy a hit...and that's sad when you got all that Forbes money. That has to be the worst feeling in the world, to make all the money, and not have the ability stay consistent. He's not even pop no more. Money does change niggas, but how you let it kill your whole sound?

You don't mean that...

You agreeing with me for the most part...except the jayz shit. It is a corporate move with Jay being put on a southern nigga album, so that it would increase the sales, just like with jeezy and juvenile. Jay was NOT fucking with them south niggas. Juvie even told xxl he didn't want no damn remix he was confident the record would sell on its own. The corporate heads know jay on a cd means east coast niggas would AT LEAST check it out. But jay wasn't cosigning niggas. Can't you tell, to this day? You made my point even more by saying em was bigging 50 up. So of course when you got the greatest white rapper in the game cosigning, MTV gonna take heed, BET gonna take heed, Priority/Interscope was gonna take heed. Shit em got me to take heed if you wanna keep it real. If it wasn't for that 50 cent may very well be still doing mixtapes. Jay was never heard bigging up Ross, only khaled was, hence me saying why I chose to listen to Ross was based on my own interests. And Ross calling 50 cent a snitch, doesn't make 50 cent any less of a snitch, just like calling Ross a CO doesn't make him any less of liar. Yeah he lied. But niggas kill me talking he law enforcement. How can he enforce the law on niggas already locked up, besides just treating niggas like shit in the cell? Tell the truth, who give a fuck if he did treat niggas like shit in jail? Its JAIL! It ain't no damn vacation. The purpose of being treated like shit is so you don't go back! So pardon me if I don't care for prisoner rights... As far as Pac goes, yeah he was brought out by digital underground...but to compare that to a cosign from Dre and Em? you're reaching fam. Digital underground never was that mainstream and when they were, artists were not making that much money anyway. Em was doing britney spears numbers, he had the white dollar with him, and alot of those dollars went to 50 just on the strength of his cosign. You can keep pretending like you don't know what I'm saying...but you know damn well Ross ain't had no shit like that. Jay don't even hook up Bleek or any of his other acts like that, so you know Ross wasn't going to get no major endorsement.

Now I also agree with the fact that there are people who never been around black people who use the word. But dig this...I was in the Philippines for some work, and I of course found some chicks to kick it with. We were talking about how in America, they didn't understand how we had so many problems over race in America...I (very briefly) gave her a rundown, and she told me some shit that fucked me up. Over there black people from here are like celebrities. When I got off the plane it was like the kobe and the lakers came to town. I asked why and she said in her country they LOVE americans, especially black because they're so nice when they visit. But what fucked me up, is she told me that in her country, everyone who is dark skinned is considered BLACK, and all the fair skinned are considered white. I was buggin, kuz I'm like babe, you all got the same hair, they're not that much lighter than you, and this is still a 3rd world country! It goes to show how much racism in our own country affects the world. There are actually places where people ingest this part of our culture...so it let me know that it has to start here. People want to be like us all over the world because they identify with the struggles of just trying to make it, and believe it or not, they watch our news like we watch our news and they're up on current events...I'm rambling now...kinda tipsy lol I say all that to say, when WE as black people realize the MAGNITUDE of the INFLUENCE we have on people lives, we will then understand why we have white people calling each other nigga, puerto ricans calling each other nigga, asians and so on. We got to put our foot down, and that's why with no intentions on being a leader I started it in my own circle. My sis says "joker", its still clowning but it takes the edge off any situation when you feel you would want to use that word. And the uproar is contradictory, I don't even raise my kids like that. I can't say don't smoke and don't drink, when they know I do! Its more of an approach like, even though I do it, I know its WRONG. So if you choose to do it, please don't get behind a wheel if you've been drinking. People need to be more realistic about what's going on in this world. WE made nigga this popular. If we never took that word home, after slavery that word would be dead. That's what I miss about the 70s, fucking cointelpro fucked that all up. Calling each other brother, or blood...that must have been a hell of a high, to have that unity, even though it lasted only a few moments...

Clo, I been reading your posts a long time my man...but you gotta stop...you know damn well Yo Gotti ain't seeing Ross lyrically on Yo Gotti best day...and you got him your top 5? I'm from the midwest where we don't catch more of one type of music no more than the other...and I can name 100 niggas more lyrical than Yo Gotti g. But I don't rock to all of them like that, but I ain't no hater on their skill, just that some artists don't make the music I want to listen to. Now if this is a list of your fave artists cool, but as far as lyrical prowess...?

Damn dog, I would love to see what your definition of real hiphop=real lyrics. Because if that's all you're about then you would know any nigga who kept it 100% real, rarely made money in the rap game. This rap shit is a game, and Ross is merely a player as is every other rapper in it. Maybe Ross was only meant to go gold kuz he don't go commercial. UGK always went gold and they were still considered one of the best duos to ever do it. Not everybody is going to sell like Jayz. But at the same time jayz didn't make his money just selling music from the heart either. And he even admitted it, so I'm intrigued to see who you consider real hip hop=real lyrics who are really making money in this game. Ross lied, and lied bad no doubt. But what is real about Ross, is that he's one of the hardest working motherfuckas in the game. No one can deny that, and he has yet, to me, anyway to come wack on a feature. This dude be on songs with niggas I never heard of but they got a nice beat and Ross is all over it. I've never seen no one, except wayne, who works as hard as these niggas. So please if you don't mind, expound on who Ross should be trying to emulate...kuz he getting paid no doubt...as you surely know, most artist make hardly any money on cd sales/itune sales. Most of their money comes from shows. And he does crazy shows, to the point he damn near died from not taking time off. He's severely serious about getting money, and he getting it.

You keep on acting like 50 cent did that by himself...Ross, outside of using another man name on his claim to fame(who I didn't know), was self-made. I wasn't fucking with khaled at all so his co-sign didn't mean shit to me. I liked ross off his music and how he flow...fuck the real rap argument, kuz ain't nobody went platinum off they real life to me except Pac...50 cent had two of the BIGGEST NAMES EVER IN HIP HOP HISTORY holding him on their shoulders. 50 cent wouldn't be nowhere without Em and Dre. You saw where he was before them...stuck being blackballed in New York kuz of Ja Rule. Even Master P taking him on his 1st tour didn't build the buzz he was hoping for...(and was rather ungrateful about, tried to diss P and P kept it so 100, that 50 had to stfu and humble himself)...so if you wanna pour salt on Ross that's fine, we all know he a co, and no I don't fuck with pigs or d-boys but the songs he makes are still better than 50's. He just haven't went commercial. And for that I still respect his product...just like I did 50 until he started singing when nobody asked him too, and he killed ja rule saying he sang too much. But niggas fail to be objective. How you kill a nigga career saying he sing too much...and now your silly ass can't make a song with out singing...? But I do still bang that Redrum kuz that's the only song where I can tell he really did try to not be on that sing a song shit....
