As a fan do you vision yourself in your favorite rapper's shoes...

I was just saying in general that if someone aspires to live the life of luxury they should get off they ass and go get it.

I know some people that do want to love like that tho. Wishing it was them. Shit a majority of rappers don't live like that that they just selling a dream.

Everyone judges success differently and that's not the life for me.

No not at all/ i just enjoy their music and leave it at that. Guess why most times I'm months or even years behind on an artists news.. I just take looks for release dates and keep living my own life. enough going on in my own life than for me to worry what 2Pac is up to lol

What pac is up to? Damn nigga you really are behind years

To say that this doesn't happen is false. I've never been that way as far as braggin or whatever. This is why, say for example some Jigga fans get happy when they see him get a huge deal or sum cuz they feel they apart of his journey.

Most of us do that with entertains whether you niggas are honest or not. Like these days i've been on a depressed road these past years and being disappointed in myself for various reasons like school, being unemployed for a long time or whatever and many other things i had no control over so i have alot anger and rage inside which is why i relate to DMX so much right now. That "i don't give a fuck, fuck y'all, imma be honest and tell it to your face" vibe. Ive always been that way but more now than ever. So i think ive adapted some of his mannerisms, even tho i had some of it already before i knew of X.

But it's not like i'm out there doing hard drugs, "trying to be" DMX or whatever. I'm not in that type of mode.

Same thing with someone like KRS and Chuck D. That "blacks should only look out for each other cuz no one look out for us except when we step on each other until that one person gets ahead" feeling i've head and how we should uplift each other no matter if you from the states, Africa or whatever. So i relate and feel some of what their saying.

Now, recently, i relate to @CurtisScoon as well. Or more like i feel like we're the same person. I'm not thug or a tough dude but that honesty no matter who it is and just using common sense more than just picking sides even if its to a friend is the same way ive been rolling all my life.

So my point is when you relate to someone alot it's easy to get caught up in visioning yourself in these ppls shoes because you feel like them but the only thing that divides you is that they were able to have a platform and succeed so in turn you feel like they walk the road you want or would like to walk in.

That's how i see it.

*excuse the long ass post*

The bold is exactly what I'm getting at...not only Jay-Z, but others like 'Ye, Wayne, Drake, etc..
 
naw I don't have to really relate to what a rapper says at all to be a fan, they just have to have lyrical skills and tight production consistently.
