*Roll Eyes*
roll your eyes all you want. Keep in mind that when I was a kid, until I was like 14 or 15, the only access I even had to rap news or anything like that, was whatever MTV did. My parents have always hated rap, I was lucky they even bought me shit like "On and On" by the Fat Boys or "He's the DJ, I'm The Rapper". Shit, they didn't even want to buy me any MC Hammer shit in the late 80's/early 90's.
And the only friends I had that listened to rap were the friends in my grandma's neighborhood in Detroit. We went out there about 3 or 4 times a week, but only for like 2 or 3 hours at a time. And, I grew up in the middleclass suburbs, NO kids around me where I lived listened to rap. That was the biggest reason I was picked on as a kid. Everyone else was listening to White Snake, Motley Crue, Twisted Sister and all that shit. I was going to school with Fat Boys tapes, Young MC, LL Cool J, Fresh Prince, MC Hammer, Beastie Boys and everyone made fun of me for it. Got my ass kicked a few times for listening to Young MC.
Bottom line is, anyone in here is free to say anything they want about me. But, no matter what you say, 3 things will never change:
1. None of you know me
2. I simply don't give a shit
3. I ain't gonna quit rapping
