Recently there has been an epidemic which has plagued the “game” of modern or popular “culture.” This infection is spreading like wildfire and the most recognizable and most notable entertainment icons have seemingly become the primary target. As the days go by we see more and more of today’s rapper’s and singer’s expressing their courtship by meshing the aged old proverb with the rhythmic and classic melody of heavy 808 drums over orchestra typed keys, really making it seem like a rising trend amongst the famous.
Now my purpose for addressing this is in no way related to hatin’ on some ballin "lookin boys", but more so from the REAL point of view. It's possible you just ain’t affected by blowing a few thousand, especially if you made 30 thou from last night’s show, and another 30 coming from tonight’s show, it may not be more than a miscellaneous expense; but for those half way hustlers, that hit the strip club and toss half of their days profits and end up losing a lot more just tryna keep up with the Jones’. And this is where the issue gets serious. We are seeing the trend leak from upstream amongst today’s stars, to the local go getter’s, and gradually becoming an expectation and/or way of life, the whole time thinking they got it so it ain’t a problem.
On that REAL S**T though, stealing a loaf of bread is still stealing; losing by one or losing by 20 is still simply losing; thus trickin’ is still trickin’ whether you got it or not.
To the women who benefit… simply put, “Get it how you live!”
To the women whose men just put a female through college, my advice is double-check the books and get the amount because tuition is a taxable credit. Straight up!
But lastly to the artist involved, I’d like to stake my claim on this issue by making my allegiance with Neyo’s campaign for a Miss Independent. Cuz fun as it is to shower ladies with dollar bills, it’s always more fun doubling my stacks, and a shorty who gets her business done is always more attractive and much more appeasing.
