Hammer did give a lot of local people in his Oakland community jobs and gave money to his community. That's where you probably think Hammer went wrong. He could have said, forget the community like Jay-Z and others but he actually wanted his people to gain from his success. Jay-Z raps about selling drugs and killing people and claims it's only entertainment. The problem is, it's not entertainment, it's real and Jay-Z is a role model for these kids who parents are taught up in the same mess Jay-Z was rapping about. As much as you can diss Hammer, his first lines in "Can't touch this" was:

My, my, my music hits me so hard

Makes me say "Oh my Lord"

Thank you for blessing me

With a mind to rhyme and two hype feet

It feels good, when you know you're down

A super dope homeboy from the Oaktown

Just thanking the lord for blessing him and claiming that he's a cool guy to like. Jay-Z and other rappers including a younger Master P would rather poison you and claim to be hood reporters. Since when do reporters sell dope, kill, or talk about it. They report, not live in another man's skin. I don't ever recall Hammer using the 'N' word either in his songs. Hammer was actually a blessing to the game, the problem was the powers that be didn't want Hammer to shine. He was too positive and too helpful to his brother. Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, and some others would rather shoot you and claim the devil wanted you gone. I guess brothers priorities is messed up in 2011.

Edit: Remember that Master P filed for bankruptcy as well. It's no surprise when artists do that. Most aren't really making a lot of money comparative to their actual worth.

Hammer went wrong trying to help people who didn't want to help themselves...him helping the community wasn't the issue, him helping people who had no desire to do anything other than wait for a handout is where he lost

The biggest joke ever told was MC Hammer was broke. He was not normal *you and me* broke. He was *millionaire* broke. Alot of debt but he had alot of liquidity! He sold his assets and was back to being a thousandnaire!

I've always respected Hammer. Dude's heart was in the right place and he did the right thing (not necessarily the smart economically wise thing though).

People need to stop acting like if they was alive during the CANT TOUCH THIS days they wasnt dancing to that shit.

I got love for Hammer.

I didn't know P filed for bankruptcy. Anyway, the only problem I have with Hammer was that lyrically he was wack. Even though I liked some of his songs, my complaint was damn, why is this nigga getting all of this love when there are people way better than him. I don't fault him for giving back, but you have to make sure your own solid financial ground before you save the world. Even though you my be a multimillionaire, you still have to budget your money and live within your means. Even though your financial parameters are bigger than everybody else.

The powers at be didn't conspire against Hammer, the music buying public just grew tried of his brand of music.

Dude gve jobs to his community and helped with multiple charities. If anything Hammer cared too much, cause it's obvious there ain't no point in helping Crab in the Bucket ass niggas.

hammer ain't winning at all

any time a major failure says that they've moved on to "investing in various things" and "speaking at universities" it means they fell off and live paycheck to paycheck

and being a preacher is a major L

nobody has less credibility in this world than a preacher

He is proof that simple things are all you need in life. I know on the low he is sick for burning $30 million though, he probably thinks about that $30 million every time he is doing some kind of work.....I wouldn't do shit but eat, sleep, travel and not work another day in my damn life if I had that kind of money lol......

That's not true, he might not be close to what he reached in his heyday but living p/p is doubtful if he spends accordingly.

No doubt his time was nearing an end but he's no where close to the only musician to file, it's just that he wasn't a willing musician to the industries credit.
