Why can’t we have an articulate spokesperson from the rap world to explain these things to these lilly white journalists? These two fools from SOHH.com and Allhiphop.com come of as church going uncle toms, how the heck are you guys hip hop? As soon as that white chick said, “What’s so great about this innovative guy? [starts to do a freestyle mocking rap] ‘I’m the N with the glocks and pumps, suckerfree from the chumps’ [end of the wackest thing ever], I mean what’s so innovative about that?”, you should have said, “Don’t ever do that again”. That mock rap right there is what we are fighting against, these old Conservatives (Read: old rich white folk and uncle toms) that don’t know about hip hop think that ‘mock rap’ is an exact representation of what it is and more devastatingly think what Nas’s body of work consists of.
To make matters worse, they end the segment with a montage of Nas’s worst songs that no one listens to. Everyone knows the only song Fox has heard from Nas is “Shoot ‘Em up”. [Someone please zshare them “I Can”.] This is his worst song on his worst album. No one bumps “Shoot ‘Em Up”. [It was a bad movie too]. Anytime you niggas go on FOX name these songs that were actually released as singles, that people actually listen to and get inspired from to do good. In fact, print this out. [Heck! Use the Free 500 songs to download these].

Nas did a song with his dad! His dad. I don’t even know where my dad is. He is the wrong person to target as being the representative of “mindless gangster rap”. [Though it would be a lot harder to defend 50 Cent]. Is Fox going to claim Talib is a gangster rapper now? Don’t make excuses for Nas by saying politicians do bad and do good. Say what hip hop heads are saying. Stop being f*cking idiots! Hip hop will stop saying “nigga”, “hoes” and “bitches” when Hip Hop decides they don’t want to say those words. Nas calling his album, “Nigga” is a testament to the true spirit of hip hop, which is to buck the system. This means we do not listen to what some old white man tells us, we speak on our realities from the humble places we come from. The old generation of white folk is what called us “niggas”, “hoes” and “bitches”, that’s where we got these words from. Now yall want to tell us to stop using them. We’ll stop when we damn well feel like it. Oh yes YoRapper is mad, steaming mad, yall done did it now!
