this shit has been discussed to death homie. 99% of shit on the radio and what kids are listening to is dumb ignorant stupid non-musical shit. but dudes like you wanna say see, these numbers prove selling drugs and bitches in bikinis are all people wanna hear in hip hop. you don't realize the reasons why certain shit gets stuffed down our throats and why other shit doesn't get heard. Go talk to Paris about how KMEL basically banned him from getting played on the air. Shit is real interesting once you start breaking it down. But thats discussion right? Facts, learning about whats really going on, not this surface level approach to what is hip cool and in. If you wanna get deep we can get deep but it don't look like you prepared to go there.
