They all come off as pimps to me. I stopped listening to Tariq a while back. After Umar's petty fighting with Boyce Watkins, I stopped checking for both of them as well. There will be no new leaders imo. The "man" has the game too sewn up. All it takes is some instigation and movements destroy themselves. That or the greed of these so called leaders.
I even stopped listening to Talib when he started to come off as an attention *****.
You shouldn't look for a leader though. I listen to these dudes cuz they talk some real ****. That's it. I don't look at them as MLK or something. I don't think they try to be either. I think if Tariq was fraudulent he would be on VH1 or one of them shows. He pretty much does his own thing. I think the Umar/Watkins situation is dumb but Umar still seems like a solid dude to me.
He was on MTV a few years back...I forgot what he was on for, but it had something to do with helping some HS kid get a date.
