i can tell you exactly whats happnin to wayne. real life. that street sht he talks is catchin up with him cause he's tryin to live what he talks about. you been rappin for how long and you just now joinging a gang? doin drugs? kissin men? whats going on with you? the stuff people don't talk about on rap recors is the real streets, the real club, the real hood. i saw weezy on the cover of hip hop weekly or something awhile ago with a white chic, they both looked like trash, leaving a night club or something. the girl was pudgy and both of them were all sweaty, lookin beat down and tired. she had hair all stuck to her sweat drenched face, wayne was all sweaty like he was a fiend, jones'n for his next fix. i'm like see, this is what they don't talk about, how u look and feel like trash after a night of drinkin and druggin and going home with dirty foot woogie. i bet he woke up to her the next morning like WTF!?!? not to mention how he paid his way into a gang so they would stop exstorting him and his incestuous "paw". i like lil wayne, lyrically. or, i used to, my love for him is starting to wain. pun intended. i used to defend him when we spoke about mc's. tell people to actually listen, cause the boy was nice with the mic. now, i don't know what to say. even tho i still kinda like his music, i can't support someone who talks to foolishly in magazine interviews and utoob vids. crazy. i want someone to talk about all the downside to the hood/club/streets. cause thats all you ever hear on songs, "i'm in the club, the hood, the streets, making this money cause a nga gotta eat" is that all anyone has to talk about? what alot of them aren't sayin is that they're at the (gay) club, or on them (suburban) streets shawty, or some nice clean safe police patrolled (neighbor)hood. talk about the ladies who act crazy and key your car or stalk you after she threw her panties at you and u beat it up and now you find out she's physco! talk about that, don't tell kids to shoot everybody including newborns, thats dumb. so is this thread. haha. i've said my peice, now i bid yo peace.

Oh, and that autotune/tune/melodyne stuff, sounds dumb. Especially on that shawty lo remix. Long live roger troutman, zapp, and the talkbox. Which is soooo not the samething as what people are doing with fore mentioned plugins. Roger had talent, cause he sang AND played the keys to get that effect. No disrepect to tpain.
