    Ha, what a loser. Artists don’t deserve to be paid for their work.

      Artists don’t deserve to be paid for their work.

      That’s the take of the suits and investors that receive the staggering majority of the revenue from the companies you’re stanning for. capitalist-laugh

      Most rappers are legitimate criminals some even murderers. They don’t deserve shit.

      People act like “normal” people aren’t criminals. The world is really dark. Oh yeah not to mention ruining lives and families by selling them crack or pimping out women and kids.

      Snoop drove for a hitter.

          My life growing up with emcees and bloods that connect with Boston and ny/bk/bx. As well as being in the graffiti culture. I’ve had death threats against my family and kids and gunshots directly outside my house, and been stalked. Seen fist sized rocks of meth and automatic weapons.

          Believe it or not not heeding the wisdom will be your loss if you ever end up mixed up in the bullshit. It made me almost kill myself and I’m still dealing with it.

          Not talking about pop rap. Aside from the old heads from the 90s.

          Every dealer has a boss. Every boss has to protect their life. Every boss has a crew. I’ve seen shit deep. I know the way it all works. Favors for favors etc. If you aren’t the guy on the top then your freedom relies on being submissive to the one above you. I’ve seen people do anything to stay out of prison.

      Pretty sure the artists get paid whether consumers pirate the final product or not? The Bungie devs don’t get paid less money for every game that is pirated 🤡
