I'd argue it's just to spite the South. It's more to it than the wildness there. People always just focus on LA, Chicago, and New York historically.

nah, cause they love talking bout us musically when it comes to what new trends to hop on lol.

but regardless, a lot of people don't know how bad it is.

It's like 99% developed by 19

Only the frontal lobe (which impacts decisions) is done at 24/25

I'm being facetious. I don't know you or your background and as an immigrant and minority, i'm sure if you think about it, you've experienced or seen some s***.

The point I was getting at, is that far too many people exclude the extraordinary everyday circumstances surrounding the impoverished young black man.

Even if he makes it out, there are friends, family, a network of support system that helped him get to where he is today as well as real life habits / risks that he engaged in to get to where he is now.

Saying to simply drop those friends and circumstances is incredibly dismissive and not really practical.

good

My bad

Only just the most important part of the brain is still developing lol. You clearly are a man by then.

HUH?

Who boofn a mic in for him

cool he left yall a bunch of music yall straight

Anybody saying
“It’s not that easy” to get out of the street life, y’all are dumb. It may not be easy but it is simple

It’s not about whether it’s easy or not .. that Nigga has recorded what like 10-15 albums/mixtapes? That’s not easy either lol. It’s not easy to take care of 7 kids @ the age of 21
Not easy to do a lot of s*** that he did but it didn’t matter if it’s easy it just mattered that he wanted to do it so he did it
He chose to not get out of this life as well

He been covering Jacksonville from what I see and niggas is eating it up

YOURE ASKING TOO MUCH ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO EVER LEAVE THE LIFE EVEN IF YOU GET RICH D ZAJZNXKLSLS

I'm kinda like that tbh I only really f***s with Griselda and youngboy all these other new rappers suck. That baby keem guy has potential I guess. Dababy and lil baby are cool but I don't go out of my way to listen to them either.

So many copy cats but no ones been able to come close to his combination of punch, authenticity, passion and aggression

His ability to pivot from one emotion to the next effortlessly, theres a lot of depth to his music too. Youngboy is a once in a generation talent, these other guys are hacks they can't even come close on there best days. And on top of all this hes a baby he's 21 years old

F***ing legend. Not Wayne not Tupac not Jay z were ever rapping like that at that age let alone putting albums and mixtapes of that quality out. Youngboy is already a legend he has the potential to be an all time great if he can stay the f*** out of jail and alive.

Isn't youngboy on probation/parole? Because really that's his only good excuse for not leaving. If I was him I'd be out chief keef status catch me in mansion in California eating caviar and getting my balls licked by a Victoria secret models. While all my opps kill themselves in that s*** hole I use to call home.

Unless he snitches on others...

Sad situation though, but he did get a warning a few years ago and if he's still been doing this kinda s*** then he's got nobody else to blame

Let me tell you something bruh that might actually surprise you some of the crews and gangs these rappers are in or affiliated with have been being investigated they didn't start investigating when youngboy blew up if anything he probably made there job easier for the feds. So in theory yes he could've have seperated himself from his crew but that doesn't mean he was going to avoid charges if theres been an ongoing case he's a part of.

What do you mean chief keef is literally the perfect example of leaving the hood to stay alive. Hes big chilling he's getting his balls licked in Beverly hills by one of his white neighbors. Meanwhile all his opps and crew member who decided to stay in the hood are killing each other. It was a brilliant decision of his to leave the hood.

Some made bad decisions during the drill explosion

lil mister got offered a 100k distribution deal after No Lackin but turned it down bc he thought he was worth a million.

Ended up never recapturing that fame and being trapped in the hood and eventually backdoored

Thank god no more s*** music and his meme fans will die away just like when 69 got locked, love to see it

All those kids were too young and naive to realize the opportunity they had in front of them let alone capitalize on it. They f***ing blew it. They were part time rappers full time gangsters.
