A Bitter View

It's bad enough that living in the 'Go, you can't become a star in anyway without backing. Dudes have to move to NY or Cali To make it anyway possible if they don't they won't survuve in the industry. Then there living in a new city yet they wanna scream chicago and that bothers me to no end. I hate that about my city yet we have so much talent here its rediculous. But I have to say some of ya'll fucking it up for the rest of us! With the exception of those who've moved into the city and became famous and those in R&B, im only speaking on the chosen few that's made it big time.



Kanye West


You started as a ghost beatmaker for various artists. When I got a hold your discography I was shocked to know some of my favorite songs in the past you produced. I gave you props because you compliment other producers like 9th wonder and the Neptunes so you’re not totally stuck on yourself. Right now you’re at the top of the game. Can’t anybody fuck with you and you know it and flaunt it. You say that you’re conceited and arrogant to make up for your insecurity. It’s a nice tactic and I do it myself from time to time; but not at the point you do. I’m serious, you try to be funny at the same time and it don’t work dude. I just saw a video in Canada at a radio station you throwing a hissy fit over them editing out white girl in your song. You even have to admit, look where you were and look at the majority of listeners you knew most of the listeners were Caucasian. You didn’t care, you proceeded throw a fit till they removed it. In your favor the radio personality was an idiot because all he kept asking for was freestyles and letting all your words go right out the other ear. Seriously for that fit you deserve to get stole on. You are turning out to be an embarrassment for my city and I don’t appreciate that. I also had a listen to you new album, I’m not feeling it like your first.


Common Sense


Even if some wack ass homos tried to sue you for the name (where they at now?), thats what you'll always be to me. For a while you could do no wrong. I heard you name through the g.d.’s at my high school. They were saying how your style was raw and that you were from the city. I paid it no mind actually. When Frankie Jaye played your cut “Soul by the Pound” for the first time Saturday night I had to admit, the beat was tight but lyric wise I wasn’t feeling you. That all changed when I watched your video “Take it easy” on jukebox. That song blew my mind. It was definitely then that I had to cop your album. Once I got it I had to listen to the whole album to get my money’s worth and all I got were a good 3 songs that I enjoyed minus the remixes. The album can I borrow a dollar was like whatever for me then I saw you on BET doing “Hidey Hoe” Live. I couldn’t believe you’d do that of all songs live on the air. I saw that you tried to clean it up as best you could but those that liked the song were all saying “What up, BITCH?!” Instead of “What up Tramp?” A year went by, take it easy & soul by the pound were still on heavy rotation. It was then on 106 Jams broke out the first track from your next album. I was feeling the beat on “I used to love h.e.r.” from the get go. I didn’t pay attention to the lyrics till I bought the album. I bought that shit off that one song alone. Resurrection is indeed one of my favorite albums. Let me make this short though. I don’t know what it is but I have always liked every other album you’ve put out. In order: Resurrection, Like Water For Chocolate and now Be are all my favorite albums from you. Keep it up man but all I ask is please go back to the cap and leather jacket b-boy days and dump the mismatching ties with Bill Cosby sweaters and the grandpa plaid berets.


Twista


You’re the only rapper NOT to leave the chi (far as I know) and get bigger and bigger with every album. Hell you and Jay-Z started the fast rapid fire rapping shit. Then you had busters like Bone scrubs in harmony claim you stealing their style. Man I remember the days when your were a baby faced super fast Mr. Tung Twista on the radio. I was there when you were crowned by the Guinness book or records as the fastest man alive. The demoted to fastest rapper because that dude from Micro Machines commercials (a.k.a. Blur from Transformers) bitched about it. I remember “Ratatatat”, and my favorite “Snap Happy” I remember you had beef with Naughty by Nature because He claimed you stole their flow after a while. In truth they stole yours. It wasn’t until “Po Pimp” you redefined yourself and improved your style. You went from Islamic soulja to denounced fat headed S-Curl wearing baller. I used to see you all the time at the local car wash getting your pimped out Rolls Royce washed walking into cellular one with your big ass fur coat. All I can say is that you’re doing your thing. I’m looking forward to the new Speed knot Mobstas album.


Da Brat


I feel your passes to the chi are now revoked. You’re no longer a citizen. Hell you don’t even rap no more. I refuse to believe your sisters with Lisa Raye either.


Do or Die


What can I say? You guys try to do your best to come up but some invisible force keeps you down for the time being. What is it? I have nothing but respect for ya’ll. The song “Po Pimp” is a classic. My personal favorite was “A player like me.” C’mon, you all would be much tighter if Johnny P and Twista were apart of your group. Your group’s name resembles your drive in the game. Keep it moving.
