~thank you
now i did not know that Marshall was 36 … 36 and he is bringing out a diss track to mariah and nick .. saying things like .. i will blow up your whole spot .. and he is 36 ?? wow .. thats now put some things in perspective.. hey i dont dislike dude but cum on !!
and REDMAN 39 ?? no shit .. these years sneek up on us dont they .. i think we as hiphop community take artists music material for granted .. like they put something out .. dudes bang it for a week , and then there like fuck i wont more , more more more !! this or that nigga needs to drop more shit .. ? and not take the time to fully digest and understand the album or material they have been supplied with ….
i still bang shit from 1992 , man i had NEWYORK NEWYORK on the other day from the Doog pound in 1994 ..
very interesting mecca !! props
you’ve added yourself to a list of children
_dickhead
and i feel that if u make good music and are true to yourself than why not make music forever.
but if its all gangster ,drugs and bitches then …its time to hang to mic up !!
@callmehdre nah nigga im from MA
anyway yea but i mean i listen to half of those artists and their still sick, like jadakiss, styles p, jeezy, etc.
they dont really act like kids, they tlk about gettin money, everybody wants money no matter how old u are
i didint know ice cube was that old though, i thought he was like 34 or 35, shit he bout to be 40
Nobody is going to stop listening to an artist because they reach a certain age. Fuck I’m never going to stop bumping to rap or hip hop even if I don’t will have the same interest in listening to a 20 year old kid when Im an old ass nigger walking whit a cane. People will stop listening to artist when they don’t generate enough interest.
If they retire what should they do?
Work at Wal-Mart?
Maybe flip burgers?
Start a record company and watch people download music.
They are artist they try to stay in the game as long as possible, the smart ones invest, some just live their life and the dumb motherfuckers go broke. I bet when you are 39 like jay you still be internet thugging and blogging.
are you 50’s defsounds bodyguard chap ?
your missing the point .. its not if they are rpping at 40 , its what there rapping about bozo … how can someone find music enjoyable and/or belivable if they are talking about riding out and fucking niggas up with the 12 gauge etc etc .. like mature your lyrics whit your age dawg .. the gangster shit is played out enough by the young cats .
nuga !! chris benoit yaslef !!
we all hope that your time will come too…
I find it hard to believe you’re actually 30. Cuz you don’t harbor the intellegence that I would expect of a person of your(supposed age)I really don’t need to elaborate on the point since the 2 people above me already said what I was about to.lol
I just can’t figure out why dumb niggas always wanna respond to me with halfassed logic.smh
@ blackmamba & notyou – What up fam. good schoolin.lol
“They say 30 is the new 20 – but you 40 i’m 30 so who’s 20?”
These niggas are getting old and still talklike a 17 year old…
Vintage niggas have always trumped the yungins. The yungins follow trends, Vintage rappers set trends.
To sum it all up: youre too old when you THINK youre too old.
camelface or no camelface
Jennifer Lopez- 40
Halle Berry- 43
Allysa Milano- 38
Sanaa Lathan- 38
Talent, Beauty, Brains and Mic skill have no expiration date.
If there is a more creative or original artist in this game than Redman I would sure like to know who it is.
Maybe if the younger generation actually came with some kind of new skill that actually filled in the void then I would say maybe Scarface should retire.
But Id rather listen to my favorite rappers in wheelchairs than try to superman that hoe.
You can only hope to be where Im at when you touch 30 baby boy.
But I wish that you do even better young nigga. Because you are the future of our culture. And appreciation of the classics that made it possible for the new jacks in your shoes to even have careers in this shit are the true innovators of the music you base your style on.
Wrap your mind around that one lil nigga.
like my man Shyne said “They dont do it cuz I rap about it. I rap about it cuz they do it”
Some niggas just dont grow up
But it age doesn’t mean much if you still got it
a lot of big names up there
He dosnt get the credit he should but thats the nigga right there that truly pioneered the hustlein & pimpin rap. Him and Too Short were doin it back in the mid 80s before even Run DMC got hot.
He was one of the first niggas to fuck with Pac.
He won a Grammy back when rappers didnt get Grammys.
Jay-Z song “99 Problems” is a remix of Ice-Ts original hit
Ice-T deserves his own god damn blog.
