You know there are racist on this bored and some show it pretty clearly because they are behind a screen name. Everyone has an IP address. This place gets hacked everyone’s identity is public. Think Ashley Madison. Just good for though maybe be a little smarter.


I am sure there are racist comments in this thread, its the OT, but there are comments that can be taken as racist that are truth.

Like, why the frick is someone worth a few million shooting cubes in a street game? In the street, you can get killed over a dollar.. Its not about the money its the principle.

For example, if you feel like you were cheated, don't ever grab your money out of the pot and stop playing. You are lucky if you just get beat up.

Bitches think any criticism of anything remotely done by a black person is racist.

They're not the smartest people on the planet.

Rap and bro country are intellectual equals. I'm not going to pretend either are "adult music."

I'm no fan of the Migos' music at all but I still knew who he was and who they are.

And This was a pretty big deal. They were hilarious in that Episode of Atlanta where they play insane drug dealers.

I mean, all genres of music has a pretty wide range. I like to listen to rappers who have a lot of word play, but not really a fan of trap rap.

I don't like the shite that's like "I got rocks in my pocket, dick big like a rocket. Im so fine, they call me pretty chocolate" or some shite like that..

This is from Eminem. There better examples, but

quote:

Holy Toledo, it's Miss Ohio
That’s the best arse I’ve seen in a while
We should be datin', she’s from Cleveland
But she's a bengal, this chick is catty
Is that a mini-skirt if it's a maxi?
That's the shortest thing for a dress since an addy (Since an addy)


And when he says "since an addy" it sounds like "Cincinnati", which plays on the whole Ohio thing.

That's by offset, who is a part of the Migos. And 21 Savage. I like that song because I have always been a Ric Flair fan.

I absolutely understand the draw to the gangster lifestyle. Rappers are pretenders, not gangsters.

Middle class suburban kids love to play like theyre hard.

Their debut studio album, Yung Rich Nation, was released in July 2015, and featured guest appearances from Chris Brown and Young Thug,


This is kinda the stuff most kids grew out of playing when they were in elementary school.

quote:

In an advertisement for Calvin Klein, Thug proclaimed "In my world, you can be a gangsta with a dress or you can be a gangsta with baggy pants.


These people are frauds.

After reading through this thread the only comment I have is that the people arguing that Takeoff/Migos aren’t famous are morons

You can say the same about Robert Di Nero and Al Pacino. They have played gangsters in movies that glorify the lifestyle.

I don’t like their music either, but the fact that you haven’t heard of them just means you live in a bubble.

I’m sure he’s not very famous among middle aged men in Louisiana, but that’s hardly a reflection of his popularity as a whole.

I hope you understand now
