B.o.B – Should Have Been the First Album (Mixtape)
Ha! I love it. Shake threw together this mix of No DJ Bobby Ray joints as sort of middle finger to the suits at Atlantic. Word on these e-streets is that they’re trying to force the homie B.o.B. into a 360 deal against his will. While I’m not categorically against 360, or multiple rights deals, I feel like they should be presented as an option to an emerging artist, not as the only option. And they certainly shouldn’t be used as a blackmail tool. I doubt they’d try to pull that shit with a TI or a Jay-Z. Sure, B.o.B. still has some showing and proving to do, but is a fair deal too much to ask? Just put out that man’s album and let the chips fall where they may.

Labels like Bad Boy, Death Row, Ruff Ryders, Roc-A-Fella, they all broke new aretists and subsequently went on tour and made a killing.
Most of G.O.O.D Music are career second stringers & Common was Common before there was a Kanye.
^
reading is fundamental.
those labels werent started exclusively by a rapper…and Common aint really go super mainstream til he linked with Ye.
Ye is building.

like whoever was saying yesterday, white boys joke like that all the time. that’s typical Jackass shit. I never heard anybody call Johnny Knoxville a fag. that shit may not fly in our world, but our reality isn’t the only reality. if you’re a fag that means you have sex with men. ya’ll niggas shit on drake all day, and comment ether is fun for the whole family, but I don’t think most of you actually believe drake fucks men.

so Drake is a white boy?

But deep-voiced Semenya – who finished ahead of Britain’s Jenny Meadows in third – could be stripped of her medal if she fails a “gender verification test”.

Being asked to take a gender verification test = biggest FAIL possible. Ever.

>>so Drake is a white boy?
he’s a half a white boy and he was at a table with white boys. but you’re missing the point though, I’m not trying to say that only white boys can joke like that and get a pass, or the pic is cool because he’s a half a whiteboy. I’m just using that as an example that everybody in the world doesn’t live by the same super macho standards that the hip-hop community lives by.

i can kinda understand. Like in sports [well soccer anyway] wen the players tap each others butt for doing something right. Doing that in the real/hip-hop world would result in a shooting. But on the pitch its just banter.

I can agree with this.
That’s why you don’t get drunk & go to sleep around white boys.
Wake up with a nutsack on your forehead.

no i overstand, i was jus playin.
but seriously tho, just cos he’s with white boys doesnt make it ok…and also Drake is part of the hip hop community. I mean Em spits more fag shit than anyone in the history of rap, but he get a pass. So does Drake get a half a pass for this?
If these were black dudes, would you be sayin the same thing?
August 20th, 2009 at 12:01 pm

Cats who did a bid can have that shit in the collection and not be accused of being ghey.
Ruff Ryder’s catered to the jail niggas.

>>If these were black dudes, would you be sayin the same thing?
good question. maybe not. I definitely wouldn’t be saying “dude’s a fag” though. that’s some dumb shit. he took a highly questionable pic, but come on, that kid is swimming in pussy.
