You're the reason people hate hip-hop

To all of the Soulja Boy's, Gucci Mane's, and Lil B's of the world. . . you are the reason people hate hip-hop.

It used to be that being an artist musically was something that was respected, but nowadays ANYONE can record a record and be called an artist. Hell, if I really wanted to I could write a song about animal crackers and have people swear up and down that it was the best thing that they've ever heard in their entire life. That is the most unfortunate thing. I'll admit that I listen to artists that I honestly wouldn't consider talented. Waka Flocka Flame, Travis Porter, and Gucci Mane are perfect examples. Their music IS fun; however, fun does NOT mean good. Nor does that mean they are talented.

I'll listen to your music, but that doesn't mean I will respect you as an artist. Shaking your dreads and screaming "FLOCKA!! FLOCKA!!" or "GUCCI! BURRR!" does not earn my respect musically. Sucks to be you if you assumed it would. Just to let you know, people do not take you seriously. You are a joke. You are not and will not ever be relevant or influential to the hip-hop game. I suggest you go get your GED and enroll into a community college so that you have some type of degree before reality hits, and people stop spending money on iTunes to hear you rap about doing a dance that makes you look ridiculous (Swizz Beatz voice)

One more thing, to all of the aspiring artists out there who believe that you can pursue rapping because your grades are awful and you don't apply yourself. . . let me be the first to tell you, you can't. If you want to try, by all means, go right ahead. . . but prepare yourself for the biggest rip session of your life from yours truly :)

Do us ALL a favor and stay in school, and stop trying to make it big. Don't quit your day job, because you'll regret it when you're collecting money from the government for Welfare and Food Stamps.
