Cube couldnt come out hard the way he did back then
first off... Cube aint even from Compton
2ndly ... cube was possibly the hardest nigga out back in the day..claimin gangsta to the fullest but he was never in the streets...
matter of fact the reason why DOC and Ren became principal writers is cuz Oshea went off to college
i aint bashing cube at all.. jus pointing out how back then rappers chose a perspective to rap from while today rappers let the character take who they really are

Fazeem Blackall;543465 said:Niggaz act like you cannot get a education and be gangsta, what the fuck is wrong with dumb kats. The game used to be about escaping the circle and evolving past being stuck in the streets, about making your community a better place, not just exploiting it or bitching about it. Talking about the real of it is gangsta, Being about Growth and protecting your own is Gangsta, alwaybuilding up your knowledge and power is gangsta, and doing so being true to yourself without being someone else Bitch is the epitome of a Gangsta...

i understand what you are saying because i agree 100%
what im sayin is that hip hop has shifted. back in the day Kool G Rap rapped like a kingpin and nobody felt the need to call him out and disrespect him
but today you have to prove everything. its like the IC's policy of proof pic or STFU
but i feel that they could get away with that back then because it was known they were rappin in character and/or the perspective of folks they knew like Tupac did.
nowadays rappers live life as if they are the character and its unrealistic

THere were the for entertainment Fantasy rappers who had no grounding and there were the Reality and its perils rappers who strove to tell the story of the streets. The Fakers won and now create ther own Fony Reality in the media with there image and Just Exploit and Do a minstrel Caricature of the culture, while the real ones refused to compromise and went Underground, indepndant and or Pursue other ventures to further the Agenda Of Growth in the communities...
and them is my last words...KLICHE;544908 said:to the threadstarter..
cube is who people should try emulate.. not bag out. Eh could have ended up a certain way.. but he went above and beyond.. and no matter what facts you wish to enlighten us with.. Cube is one of the realest alive, he stays winning and doing something bigger and better with each step he take. i don't care for how many 'passes' he gets, cause he has worked hard to be where he is and is looked up to by millions because his actions speak for themselves.. definition of a hard working real life mother fucker. not someone on the end of a laptop or whatever looking for something to discredit him for his success
