Rich Kids and Rap

"Rap has never been the same since '88, ever since it became a lucrative profession, there's a missconception that a movement in any direction is progression" Canibus.

The history of rap is simple. One day people were at a party and they were doing "toasting," a Jamaican tradition of hosting parties, and boom it stuck. It was a party and political statement for people from the street.

Rap grew and today, everyone does it. The sad part is, that a lot of people make really bad music, sell it, and make money in this form.

So what is the difference when rich kids do it? Well they get publicity, and people like them, and they grow.


Now this last track was not horrible. It just was not special. Look everyone is entitled to try and create music. It is annoying though to always be exposed to these recordings. Say something unique or archive it and put out something unique.

Hip hop is missing that. There is no more uniqueness anymore. Case 2.


My man "one less lonely girl" is hot. He is the next one expected to blow and be a big deal. Jaden Smith is the son of a rapper. He does it too on this record and well. As rap's go it is not the worst thing I ever heard. It just was not hard, but you cannot expect much from this song in terms of rap. Justin goes in though.

So in the case of rich kids rapping. There is not really much to talk about. Life for them is pretty cut and dry in many cases. Think of all the kids that rapped young, I'm saying from Jaden Smith to Lil Romeo. Remember how bad Lil Romeo was. Well he is on the same boat as other people who rap and have nothing to talk about except money and girls.



But it gets worse, Shoutout my man Juan.
