Guess who’s bringing that hardbody real talk bacl to XXL Mag dot com?
Just to piggyback off Bol’s drop on the subject… Snitching is the new Hip-Hop. And yes, T.I. had to become a confidential informant. He had no other choice. Do the knowledge on this case without the fanboy sunglasses on to distort your vision. Sonn was busted with military issued machine guns. Not them shits you get from the fifty million title pawn shops located in Atlanta. He had the shits that BlackWater USA has access to. The Feds were not gonna let dude walk without finding out where the hole had been sprung in their pipeline. Believe that.
The south runs radio-ready rap music thats for sure, and southern rap artists have no problem singing either. Do you remember when Lil’ Wayne gloated after Drama got pinched saying that, “Now Drama has to play the game fair.” SMH to Lil’ Wayne talking like Drama was on HGH or something. It’s a damn shame that a former Hot Boy felt some kind a way that Drama was getting his paper how he lived. Hating someone for getting their hustle on isn’t gangster in my book. The fact that Drama had found a way to sell product in a downturning market should have been inspiration for rappers to emulate that man’s grind, instead of turning him over to the authorities to slow up his chips.
For even more proof that the south loves snitching I point you in the direction of Rick Ross. He choose the moniker of a former drug kingpin turned informant. The real “Freeway” Ricky Ross had been sentenced to life imprisonment which was reduced to twenty years which was reduced even further because Ross spilled his guts about his operation. The south used to be about rappers like Scarface who represented that real hardbody go out like a man shit into this new get caught snitch do an eight month bid shit.
But that is how fucked the fuck up the game is now. Wack is the new fresh and dumb is the new smart. Several months ago we saw the rapper Plies manager get pinched for trying to bring back Tony Montana. I’m sure someone snitched on him too. Suge Knight was allowed to run roughshod over rap music until Vanilla Ice snitched on him for dangling him over a building parapet. That was the beginning of the end for Suge, and another case of a southern based rapper using the authorities to help them recoup. Shouts to Jeezy for not snitching yet.
I was just reading an article here where Wayne was interviewed and claimed to have been in the rap game for FIFTEEN years. Damn, that’s old head status. So if he were really 25yrs old now that would mean he got put on at 10yrs old. That’s pretty ridiculous considering there hasn’t been another 10y.o. rapper discovered. Don’t even try to mention Bow Wow either. That fruitbag is in his thirties. He has that shit what Webster Emmanuel Lewis had that keeps his ass so small.
The prevailing logic is that who would want to listen to a 10y.o. rhyme? For that matter, what the hell would a 10y.o. rap about anyhoo? Stealing candy? Lollipops I suppose. What’s really scary is that BirdBrain must have coerced this dude into that whole mafia man-kissing thing way back when Wayne hadn’t even passed puberty. At least R. Kelly fucks with bitches that have reached adolescence. Allegedly.
The midwest remains the most hardbody region in the country. Everywhere else is mired in a drought and these folks are steady getting kicked out of their homes from floods. Shout to Cedar Rapids. Too bad that your city has to wear that name literally right now. The chick in the R. Kelly video trial didn’t snitch either because she isn’t from the south. Shorty got peed on and still played it off. That is hardbody. She knew damn well that she loved the warmth of Kellz pee on her face and she wasn’t about to let his indictment ruin her chance to get that again. She might be too old for Kellz now though.
On the real though, I’ma let y’all return to your gangster music.
What is that track called again?
Lollipop.
*LMFAO*
Wack is the new fresh and dumb is the new smart.
^ No need to say anymore.
Good post… But Mr. Sunday, lest we not forget the founder of this type of shit – one Boo-Boo Jackson who took no issue with telling the Feddie Gov “Read my lyrics” when asked about criminal activity.
“Freeway” Ricky Ross gave up the corrupt government officials and cops that we’re bearing down on him. He got his sentence “reduced” to 20 years, yet his Nicaraguan supplier who was working for the US government did like 20 months if that…
On another related Ricky Ross/Rick RAWSS level – the rapper claims to have spoken to the OG and “gave him is blessing”. The OG said nothing like that ever happened. I’ll take the word of the lifer over the cRapper anyday.
Plus Jeezy better watch it… If they went after a gully Russian Jew in Jacob, is black ass don’t stand a chance…
Then again all these “self-inflicted”, You Tube, braggart gangstas (not gangsters) who snitch on themselves in video and rhyme may need a lesson or two…
All these Johnny Fontaine ass rappers who think they’re Corleones…

In terms of fake gangsterism, Akon’s criminal history >>>> everything
wayne’s quote is in reference to the fact that YOU CANT SELL MIXTAPES!!!…and especially in the damn store(i swear last week i saw dedication 1 and 2 at fye when i got C3)…you cant make money off other peoples beats…its not playing the game fair
and aint nobody turn in drama…they kicked down his door on some bullshit…and he was released free of charges
Great post. As an old school hip hop fan that just happens to be from the N.O. , Wayne actually was rapping when he was ten. I can’t say if he was writing his own rhymes or not, but I got the “BG’z” cd that he and B.G. made before Cash Money really started gaining ground and he was definitely on some gangsta shit as a 10y.o.
Explain something to me…
When the credibility of your pedigree is the most important thing to most rap fans who in the world would accept a ten year old gangster.
Look around you at the ten years olds you know. Look at yourself. Wake up people, y’all are so easy to manipulate its almost laughable.
BxS you talkin’ reckless, b…
Yo, why is xxlmag.com site down all day? Not a good look!
^that’s what’s up…BxS all day!
^^^^
Ten year olds are fucking crazy nowadays. It’s not really them, it the older dudes they look up to, that influence them.
Besides that, New Orleans was Chopper City. The murder capital.
Oh yeah, TI snitched. Aint no way in hell a dude get caught with that type of arsenal and get a year probation, and a year in prison. Let alone a convicted felon. This dude was already on paper. So he had to give them something.
The Feds/ATF got that nigga to snitch on the other rappers/hustlers in Atlanta. You know he sung like a bird too.
So Mr. 17.5 (Jezzy) betta watch his back, as well as all these other duffle bag boys cuz TIP told, please believe it.
I love fucking with y’all dudes[ll] but I don’t think y’all understand how the real world works.
T.I. was arrested with military issued guns. Not drugs. The prosecutor did a sweep of his home and found more guns. Not drugs. So why do some of you think that he would have information on drugs?
The whole point I am making is that he had access to arms that are specialized and deadly. The gov’t wants to know how much of these arms have leaked onto U.S. streets.
The prosecutor would look like a fool questioning dude about drugs. They care about the guns and who has them in their hands.
Plus T.I. don’t sell no drugs. That’s just his Hollywood pitch.
Fucking youngsters have no idea what snitching is about. The problem is there’s no proper gangsters anymore to show these knuckleheads how to act right. My sister’s baby father is looking at a 17 year bid for a crime he didn’t commit right now. He got snitched on by his ‘friends’ and still feels like he can’t do himself a favor and speak on what really happened to lower his bid so he can get out sooner and help raise his daughter. Those fucks broke the code, he’s under no obligation to keep it once it’s been broken. If someone was around to explain that ‘snitching’ is part of a larger code (Honor Amongst Thieves, anybody?) maybe these idiot on YouTube wouldn’t be throwing the word around so goddamn much. Black people stay losing.
Any case with the Feds they want you to give someone.My husband was caught up in a gun charge along with his brother now my husband is from the islands and do not believe in snitching .So the Feds wanted him to give up anyone they wanted to know about drugs,guns or anything they both would not cooperate so they were both sent to prison for one machine gun.That is how the system works.
