it don't matter how "COOL" it looks ain't know real muthafucka buyin' a rap record cause it's ''COOL'' this ain't the suburbs boeg, and i don't think any straight man will care what another man looks like, well may dirty shoez would

FUCK ALL THE BULLSHIT IF TOO SHORT IS 99 YEARS OLD ON HIS 1000TH ALBUM WITH A GOLD AND DIAMOND LACED WALKER AND TWO FINE ASS YOUNG NURSES ON THE COVER AFTER RETIRING ABOUT TEN TIMES. AS LONG AS THAT SHIT BUMP I'LL BUY IT, I LIKE THE MUSIC NOT THE IMAGE.
I'LL ALSO BUY SOME NEW SHIT FROM A 15 YEAR OLD KID TOO IF IT SOUNDS GOOD.

If they put out something good I'll support it, I'm sticking to my spice 1 comments though because in my opinion he hasn't came with anything tight since Black Bossalini. That doesn't mean he wasn't tight back in the day or doesn't have the potential to come tight again but when you havn't made anything memorable in 9 or 10 years I'm not gonna hold my breath.

Its like putting faith in Master P or Silkk The Shocker coming out with another heater, it could happen but probably wont
you got a point there!

ask kenny rogers who sells 5 million everytime he drops an album
But what if Kenny Loggins tried to come out with highway 2 the danger zone part 2? That would be total weak sauce!

There are guys in the entertainment industry who have longevity and there are ones who don't.

It's like saying picture some old wrinkled men performing rock...hence The Rolling Stones.

Rap fans are the only ones that think you must call it quits after a certain age.

If you doin' your thang keep doin' it til you feel like stopping...not when society thinks you should.

He's sold a shit load of albums over his career, but only two have been certified at 5 million or more.

I like this, it's a clear sign to never give up & just keep doing what you love...

Come on homie...You went a bit far with Craig Mack. The old most are talking about isn't strictly age based. If you are in the game 10-15 years and you keep saying and doing the same shit...then you are taking up space. If you just going to rap about what you did when you were hot...then you got to go. I personally love it when the O.G. cats are still on top of their game. They combine their knowledge and talent in a way that MOST young artist can't.
