Pebbles Amongst OUR Diamonds

What’s up people, I’m here for your weekly dose of keepin’ it real! So get ready for some reality checks. Here we go!

What’s up with these 30+ never gonna get there rappers? Seriously, I’m not trying to crush your dreams; I’m trying to make you open your squinted eyes. If you’re past the age of 25 and your tunes aren’t spinnin’ in the club, or playing on the radio; TIME TO PACK UP THE MIC AND STICK TO KARAOKE NIGHTS.

Not to say that some of these dudes can’t throw it down on the mic. That’s not the point though....If a woman is 67 years old is she gonna start stripping cause she did it when she was younger?? I highly doubt it, and the ones that do, have a serious problem to pay for. Get it? You may have some talent, but you need to start channeling it into ANOTHER direction. Find talent, mentor talent, but please STOP trying to be the talent. We get it. You were hype in 1992, and then your career died in 1993, and 20 something years later you’re still trying to revive your DEATH. Only God can give you life again, and it’s quite evident, that he agrees with your rap death; so CHILL…..

Now there’s nothing wrong with getting together with your people, and drinking, coolin’ out, having great times, and freestyling for fun and all of that. That is one of my most favorite pass times. If you want to record for fun, just for something to do: I’ll bring the drinks baby, rock on! But at the end of the day: That’s all it’s gonna be. Was Snoop still grindin’ to get noticed at age 24?? NO! The man was already deep, deeep in the game by that age. If you start young, make it, and are still cruisin’, by all means keep your booty doing shows, and keep your booty in the studio. You’ve obviously got something going on. MORE POWER TO YA

It sickens me when the REAL talent gets interrupted. These dudes are the PEBBLES AMONGST OUR DIAMONDS. Stick to writing, stick to producing, but stick a fork in it, because your delivery does not shine. If anyone is offended then I’ve done my job; because maybe it will let you evaluate your own rappers delight situation and see where you’re at.

It sucks because the ones that are confident in themselves, know this article need not apply to them….For the rest, I’ve written a rhyme: “But then we have the ignorant, desperate- to- be’s, won’t give it up at the age of 43. Lookin’ with they puppy eyes, with you tryin to plea: ‘Please, please, please just see the rapper in me.’ I swear that I’m legit, how else I roll with posses?’ They the baddest in the city, no like they suck literally. Don’t call me the dream killer; just refer to me as lady reality, giving you the truth, a piece that everybody fears to see”. Now that I’ve put this in rhyming, y’all look out for my cd reaching in 2020! So I’ll be about 39 when it drops. I already rhymed earlier on in this article, so I’m a rapper now, and I will die reaching for it.


Truthfully Yours,
