    in theory i’d rather people not do the grimy stuff rappers talk about so i don’t care if they’re faking it

    Being about what you talk about makes the music resonate more

    But you don’t have to be street to create legendary music

    Authenticity in general is important

    True. Artists always get better when their songs are about subjects they seriously care about.

    Personally can't listen to street rappers who haven't killed at least 1 person. The bars just won't hit me the right way.

    true. gucci mane murder raps really be hittin different after he caught that body

    same with dababy now that i think about it

  • I mean most of the things that constitute being about that lifestyle are inherently negative so I guess I’d rather an artist embellishes about stuff like future rather than dying or becoming a fiend/losing themselves

    Doesn’t effect how I interface with the music music tho it’s just art for art sake to me

    like how important is it that a rapper is black and comes from the hood and is actually with the s***s for u to be a fan?

    examples would be like cheif keef, nba youngboy, and future

    examples of rappers who dont have that image would be drake or gambino or brickhampster

    ps pls dont post my avi thank u

    If their music is authentic, it definitely makes it go way harder.
