hes tryna break it down i guess

(streetwise)

definitely not mutually exclusive to be smart and in the streets, but nobody’s graduating college with straight As with any involvement in the streets lol it’s tough enough to do without the streets already

Only cause he wrote for him

There's no real correlation, people have different subject matters, people from the street mostly talk about that.

insufferable poster

@ me next time p****

don’t think I’ve even said anything out there in this thread

How he pivot to traditional music training bruh said f*** them grades up the POLE

he thought the fall off stinks too

I dunno about Lupe lol

Yea he throwing shots at Cole and the new album

using “Life experiences” as a euphemism for poverty and violence is so f***ing dumb

Not if they are actively involved while in college fs but for being FROM the streets and graduating it be happening

I remember reading a perspective from someone about pro wrestling and how most pro wrestlers today are just pro wrestling fans that always wanted to be wrestlers whereas in the 80s and 90s they were people that fell into wrestling after already having a life and having developed a personality, so I can see how that relates to this

But at the same time you can't predict someone is a good wrestler or in this case a good or interesting rapper just because they have a life story, it's not so simple an equation and it's reductive to present it as such

Sometimes someone with a crazy life story could be a whatever rapper and sometimes a kid who always wanted to be a rapper could be great, it's not productive to push away people from expressing themselves

straight a students have no life experience

PUT SOME NAMES ON THAT S*** CYHI!!!

true, but also ye lived a pretty compelling life before he got to the point of a mainstream debut

mach spinnin most street rappers past or present tbr

You don’t have life experiences worth detailing if you’re smart/went to college?

Now I see how Travis finessed him for the Sicko Mode verse. F***ing idiot.
