Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[ballinsam23]

Rip PNB

Gotta forget about all the “checking in” and “this is his girls fault” sentiments.

The problem is people who are from the “trenches” think they know how to move right. Sure you may have some street smarts, but some of these rappers really think theyre untouchable. Today it doesn’t matter where you’re from, the younger generation is reckless and will do anything for a quick lick or clout. Walking around in the gang capital of US looking super flashy with diamond chains and a 200k car with zero security detail by yourself or with your family isn’t safe. Nothing street smart about that.

People are legit walking into stores with cameras in broad daylight with guns ready to kill. It’s not even about being pressed, theyre shooting

We live in sad times where you can’t have anything nice.

There is no such thing as checking in!

Who robs PnB Rock??

PnB is an actual gang in Philly. Don't let them R&B records fool you.

The check-in **** is bull****. You wear hundreds of thousands in ice on the regular around people that are essentially starving, you can/will get robbed.

Same goes for non rappers too, been to a house party where people all races got taken for their AP's, Pateks, etc.

Yeah I don’t think it’s fair to attribute this behavior to black people or hip hop culture.

Soccer players of all colors in Europe have been getting robbed at gunpoint/knifepoint in public and in home invasions over the past few years, and they don’t even venture out into bad areas. Influencers and actual celebrities get robbed frequently because they always show off where they live or where they are currently at. Recently some Swiss tourists in Italy got robbed at gun point for a fake watch (robbers thought it was worth $$$). Anyone can get be a victim.

Nobody knows for sure how this happened.

I don’t think the woman had any malicious intent but it is generally good practice to not post where you’re currently at especially if you have a public profile. Even if you’re in a safe area where no one can get to you, people might use that info to break into your spot since they know they can steal your @$&@ with zero resistance.

At the same time, you have to know where you’re at and how to reduce your chances of being targeted.

Look, I’m nowhere near a rich person, but when I was still a bit more reckless (I don’t take any risks in current times), I used to eat at a bunch of spots that were in dangerous neighborhoods because I grew up there or near there and felt like I knew my way around those parts. Still, I never wore or drove anything nice to those parts of the city. Showed up in a fitted, plain t shirt, basketball shorts, and slides so that no one ever suspect me of having anything valuable on me.

I’m not trying to blame either person by the way. It’s completely ridiculous that people can’t enjoy their lives in peace and be able to wear, drive, eat whatever the hell they want wherever they want. Forget thousands of dollars of gear, where I live now people rob other people at gunpoint for Canada Goose jackets that they can get second hand for a few hundred. Is it really worth that effort? Our society just has too many @$&$ people in it.

Sad to see Nicki going down this way.

She only for this dumb **** when she got something to promote. Then she disappears.

and of course Cardi runs to defend PNB's chick

Cardi is a much more likable person, and Nicki wonders why people don't like her? It's all just hating.

Makes me go back and look at her and Lil Kim differently.

You gotta be a scumbag to be a public figure and do that kind of victim blaming literally hours after a person loses a loved one.

I've seen a ton ppl alluding to it being his girls fault but I'm glad as time passes people are using more deductive reasoning. Somebody from inside the restaurant easily could've made a call.

If killers are bright I'm sure it will all come out.

I know others were saying Rock was dumb to be iced out like that on a Monday but I can't front if I rapped I'd be on the same ****. Might not move around those neighborhoods but I'd definitely keep my chains and ****. I spent all this money on this **** I might as well enjoy it.

I mean I understand to a degree, but since Covid dudes are using mask to hide their identity and people are more brazen in public.

Who did it? Medium complexion black guy about 5'8 to 5'11 can describe a thousand dudes if you don't have any distinguishable tatts. Same thing when they look at cameras.

I have to assume they took the jewels since they killed him for them. That could be their undoing. Now they have to either move said jewels or get em melted and put themselves at risk in the same way Rock did.

Plus there is cams on nearly every corner now and days. I could be wrong but I have a feeling we will end up seeing someone caught for this by end of the year.

Nah...you honor your contracts. Hold yourself to your word.

The exposure gained from them shows would have been worth the 11k they think they're missing out on.

Now they'll be fully dependent on her gaining lots of fans cuz them promotors aint finna **** with them otherwise.

I see both sides. Definitely not feeling sorry for promoters though.

 

[WASHED KING]

Don't agree with her being bigger than Blove but not mad at her increasing the rate.

It is what it is. EYE think she's lowkey overplaying her hand but as long as she looks like that she will get attention.

Cause that song......terrible.

Agreed on the promoter tip. But have a code for self. And that code should included honoring your word.

Nicki recently thanks a bunch of fem artist that inspired or she looked after ... Foxy, Beyonce. Etc ... Lil Kim was not one of them yet her entire persona starting out was a straight Lil Kim rip.

Yeah .. me no likes.
