Man I like the bay rap the most. Because I feel that they be they self the most. But more and more as people undercover and pull the sheets of these rappers and singers world wide. They are steady saying I am two people. for instance I am Percy Miller with the family and Master P when I'm out. I am R Kelly in the lab and myself at home. What the fuck is this. Act the same all the time and quite selling out. I hate that shit it make not want to buy there music no more. Because they fake as hell. I swear and pray to God that from here on out I never act like somebody other than myself for some money. Unless I am an actor. And don't think just because you are an entertainer you suppose to act like somebody else. Hell no, you ain't no actor nigga. That is why when you see your favorite rapper they don't never act or seem or have all the things that they talk about because they be fackin. When you are a rapper you are representing a person and saying this is you but after you leave the lab it is a different story no you still the same. If you punched me in the stusio what you ain't going to punch me in the streets. God bless anybody who is trying to advance and thank god that at the age of 23 I have the mind frame and guts to be me, shit.
How do ya'll feel about rappers being two different people thereself and a character?

i think what alot of artist be tryin to tell people is -if you see them with there family,please dont bother them cause there tryin to have the little time they do got to spend with there family-.there are alot of artist that raps about things they really dont do.when you hear how they are -murders- and -killers- in there songs do you really think they are -killers- and -murders-? IMO, I SAY THAT ABOUT 98% OF THE GANGSTA SHIT YOU HEAR IS REALLY JUST A GOOD IMAGINATION.AND IF ITS TRUE,MOST LIKELY THERE HOMEBOY DID IT AND IS DOING TIME FOR IT AND THERE FROM THE SAME HOOD.theres a fine line between real and fake these days when it comes to rappin.but there one thing you gotta understand........its all just ENTERTAINMENT.
Realtalk from some quality people I hear ya'll Dutch you right that black stuff got edited. Big Chill no doubt some realtalk, but man I still look up to these niggas, and it ain't like I'm the only one in the world who think these rappers are being they self.This is a common argument But check this out after hearing a song certain people think rappers is thugs right, but if you ask them they say no so the fake stuff make rap music look lousy. Because after the rapper leaves the lab he go roast marshmellows over the fire. And people are like where are those thugs with the money, and they come to my hood lookin for them and they for sho find them (not me though I ain't no thug), but guess who they don't find your average pop tart artist who is really the only one broadcasting the info to everbody and is not even getting down. That is like if one of my folks due a bank robbery how am I going to go on record and explain the whole script and say I did it knowing my folks did it. And anyway me and my folks would have at it because they would be like nigga I did that not you. In my opinion the bay usess game and in the game you grow in it , you only can talk about what you have soaked and absorbed and observed. Because you have nothing else to resort to all you know is game 24-7. Sick Wid It you right I due need to focus on myself no doubt, but I just wanted to shine a little light on what i am seeing going on.
Mac Dre now "you can tell when he playin and when he is not"; Tupac"rarely ever talked about killing somebody, you rarely ever heard Pac say or rap like we shot them niggas; no" Cellski"we will just leave it at that"; A-wax"you can tell when he playin or not"; Mess "Can't really tell, but is quite obvious"; Jt and Quinn"the realest, but when they get to talkin about movin keys and stuff who knows, and when JT talks about flossin who knows he says he doesn't buy nothing" so basically these guys are themselves in my oinion, they keep it real. I never met these though so I can't say but at least there style is more realistic then . People like Master P . I'm Percy at home, and Master P in the lab. And that is even weak because Master P be in the streets supposdly or I never heard about the character Master P being a rapper I thought he was a dope dealer so how can you be Master P in the lab if your playing a dope dealer you better at least sell dope.. But you feel I'm talkin about these guys Snoop too. I'm Calvin at home with the kids, But I'm Snoop in the lab and streets. shit I go over my friends and smoke around the kids and...... Hide for what your kids will know you smoke they will no the real you oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol!! You notice that everbody who plays a character role don't last.
So are ya'll sayin it is okay to be a studio gangsta. It is okay to be fake for the scrill hugh! Okay. This is what we want are kids to learn and think it is okay for them to act like gangsters for some money or even just to make some people laugh. I hope not because check this scenerio. It is not that easy I can't walk outside right now and say "I 'm a killer bitch don't fuck with me" and then niggas bring the heat and I say oh I was just entertaining. Shit I will get picked off in a minute and be chillen with the boogie man on the late night for the rest of my life lol!!!!
PEEP THIS OUT.......IF A FOOL RAN UP ON ME TALKIN BOUT FUCK YOU NIGGA YOU A BITCH WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP!!!!! IMA TRY MY BEST TO KNOCK HIS MUTHA FUCKIN HEAD OFF. I DONT GIVE A FUCK IF HE 7 FOOT 8. WIN OR LOOSE,WE GONE SQUAB!!!!!!! IF YOU DID A MURDER 10 YEARS AGO OR EVEN LAST WEEK,WOULD YOU RAP ABOUT HOW YOUR A KILLA?YOU WILL BE VERY STUPID TO TELL ON YOURSELF LIKE THAT CAUSE THE POLICE ISNT DUMB AS YOU THINK.REAL KILLAZ DONT GOT TIME TO BUST NO FUCKIN RAP BRAGGIN ON WHAT THEY DID.THEY KNOW TO KEEP THEY MOUTH SHUT.ITS NOT O.K TO BE A STUDIO GANGSTA CAUSE REAL PEOPLE WILL TEST YO NUTS AND IF YOUR NOT DOWN RIDE,YOU CAN GET ROLLED ON.
BIGCHILL I think you and I know as a rapper you can put a little spin on something or not exactly say the whole thing but at least leak a little. So yeah if you a real killa you right you ain't got time, but if you are a real killa and want to be a rapper I don't see nothing wrong with telling the truth at least you didn't act fake for the dolla or try to hide nothing. Because this character thing has blown out of porportion because now we not only have studio ganstas we got studio ballers and for really what is this. As a yungster I really didn't have a father so I trufly soaked most of my shit from bay rap and the streets and you know other people. But to hear a rapper that I like say somehting after I paid my $15.00 get me hooked like that nigga P is my dog. I am buying everyone of his cd's he is a g. "And I no you have heard people say this about artist" .But one week later they like uh I went to college and everything . I thought you didn't have no education and dropped out for the money.. And when they say they ballin but really be average as fuck that really pisses me off. And yeah I would want my kid to be like denzel but he better make the point clear that he is an actor and not just an entertainer or we are going to have to sit down and have a father son talk and listen to a C-BO or Fat Tone album together. lol!!!!!
just be yourself alot of people put this music shit under a microscope talkin about whos keepin it real I know alot of the shit sounds farfetched but its entertainment however mutha fuckas really be on some G shit every one has struggles everyone has had some violence and drama in their life music is just an outlet to exppress to the masses whats really goin on in society Im am friends with alot of artist that yall been mentioning and they all good people like Spice 1 if you know him you know he would give the shirt off his back 4 a muthafuca and same goes for B-Legit and MC Eiht just to name a few these guys are cool ass people in general they keep it real and are very buisness minded smart individuals to sum it up dont judge someone unless you know them peace!!!
I even lost a little love for Too Short a little bit after this brother gone say in this interview. That he is Todd Shaw in real life but Too Short is a character. But when you are rapping it is real life dugh!!! And do those video girls get paid because if they do you ain't pimpin "them" !!!!!! lol
But Too short is that guy don't sleep on his last album What's My Favorite Word one of the best of 03

Shit I'm one of the niggas keepin this so called halway pimp halfway player shit alive. I stay home with my money because hoes don't fuck wit me cause I ain't payin. I ain't no pimp but I no I ain't suppose to be no trick if I am trying to come up. These rappers is messing it up they jump on the beat lie and say they pimpin and go home to wifey. E-Feezy and Snoop are good at this. But don't get me wrong I buy and support there projects, just tryin to pull the sheets off a little.
tha reason i would say mainstream artist like snoop and master p r 2 different people is cuz they r no longer poor, they aint living in tha streets, they aint gotta hustle to survive no more, so would u buy a rap album where he's rapping about takin care of his kids, and payin his bills? fuck no, so he still want to make music and he knows what he's gotta say to do it.
now tha underground cats shit if they say they bust gats and slang dope, chances r they do, cuz they prolly still living in tha streets hustlin cuz they gotta eat, and they aint blown up makiin millions yet

Actually I might. Snoop need to talk about quit smokin on his new album. A lot of people like me who have been takin baths in weed would probably love the support and enjoy the idea of having healty lungs like the new Snoop. Basically they would just reinvent theself. It is not really hard Mac dre has done it. Mac Mall has done it, Jt is on his way and you wouldn't even expect there change but that is why people are hating because they changed or expanded on the ultimate plan. If P and Snoop kept it real out the gates it would not be hard. They been married since they started rappin, since the very beginning they have had on the cape. But I heard Snoop got divorced. And I think this true because I don't think Don JuaN AND THEM WOULD LET KNOW FAKE PIMPS into the circle. Unless they pimpin Snoop "wow never thought about that" . And if they think they are lame and people don't want to hear about them being good people. Shit they are lame then ,if they think so. I will never think I am lame, I'm a grown man who can do whatever I want and call it cool. I got paper and health I'm cool. Be your self.
"if i really did all these jales, you think i'd rap about it?"
sir dyno, basically saying why would i rap about this shit if i really did it.?
i think bigchill said it, most of rap is just a good imagination. Count up all the people that died in a spice 1 cd, or brother lynch hung....you think they really did it? spice 1 had a line...."I'm dumpin these niggas in ditches, back to back, still hangin their ass from telephone poles still leavin em naked and bleedin without no money...." WHO IN THE FUCK HAS EVER DONE THAT????? That shit would be in the news coast to coast if it really happened. To me, rap is like the movies, of course people haven't done all the shit they rap about, just like our governor isn't really a cyborg from the future that takes orders from a 13 year old kid, that has killed hundreds of people. Why are movies and songs any different? You may not like the fact that people don't do the shit they claim to do in songs, but that's the way it is. at the end of the year, the W-2 says entertainer homeboy, don't forget that

Right!!!!!! But all I am sayin is that faking should not even be allowed. And an actor is different than a rapper. A rapper is suppose to say things from the heart but and actor fakes and acts like someone else. Which I think it is cool to be an actor but you not suppose to be able to be a rapper and a actor but people pull it off. But you know what that is why they don't go big or that is why they do.
They don't because the hoes no they fakin right plus they don't like that fake shit. Plus everbody in the world be knowin Spice ain't killed hella niggas so if he lyin why go mess wit a Dre or cellski album or especially a Mess album. They think everybody fake. That is why people like LiL Flip and baby Bash sign deals, because to me they keeep it real. People think or it is easier for people to believe that they actually do what they rap about.
And the reason that they don't blow: Is because they sell out and act like somebody they are not. And that is getting played bause people be pulling the sheets off.

Look at Brotha Lynch. That dude would've had to be Dr. Lynch from the abortion clinic in order to pull of all those baby killings. Did you idolize him, support him, and believe he really did that shit? If a rappers rapping about some shit he really did he'd be behind bars in a second flat. That's admitting to a crime in the eyes of the law. I'm pretty sure there are several members of law enforcement that screen rap music. And there are definately tons of people waiting for these rappers to be busted for anything possible. Rich rappers don't want to go to jail. Why would they risk doing some crazy shit and rap about it, when they're living lavish. They don't have to do shit but sit comfortably, hit the studio every once and a while, and rap about more fake shit that sells.
