People do listen, not only do they listen , they mimic !!..Half the rappers that book my studio, mimic. The so called Legit acts often justify what they say and do by pointing out that it was reality for them, often pointing to their their culture. Well that was not my reality as a black person growing up in Inglewood Ca. and it was not the reality for the hundreds I grew up with.And who says that their reality is more important, credible, or significant than mine. SUPERNOVA is 100% correct when she says that "most people are sheep". People lack the ability to think as individuals. Let me share a bit of reality with some of ya'll...I am 32 yrs old. I grew up in Inglewood Ca. When I was a youngster, there was a group called "The Wrecking Crew". They were a dance act and the D.J. was Dr. Dre. They would come out with undergroud records and underground parties. Well their appeal was the fact that they danced liked The Time and Dr. Dre dressed like Dr Fink. He was never and I mean never a gangta and to this day, simply plays the role. That gangsta role came about after hooking up with Cube, who then hooked him up with Easy E. Cube was never a gangster either, he grew up a couple blocks from my mom's home. I specifically remember a day when we palyed cops and robbers as kids and he wanted to be the Cop. Cube's main thing was learning how to produce from Dre. Now...I write all of this to show u guys how sheep are. A large, significant number of people mimic these acts. Heck, the so called West coast rap movement is mainly because of Dre. They mimic individuals who themselves, in reality, never were what the say they are. It is sooo funny !!! The only real criminal from the bunch was Easy E and he was a small time drug dealer. Today, Snoop Dog is literally running for his life out here in Cali becaue of the fallacious image he was part of creating.He is supposed to be the P.I.M.P. 50 cent has a restraining order against Murder Inc.,,,That is reality !!! Unfortuantly most of us are hypnotized !!! I really can care less what any rapper has to say.I would rather hear what a single mother working 2 jobs has to say, or a world war II Veteran, or a ole school Jazz Musician telling what he experienced in his life. Just keep Rappers on the level that they are. Entertainment only.
