4. When a rapper relates to the struggle side of the world and not the industry "im in the club with my thugs shooting the place up".
5. When a rapper follows the good path of the world and not the shit side of the world for example. help people out be a good person, not kill, hurt people you don't know for no good reason.
6. When a rapper relises gangbanging is childish behaviour.
*if a rapper does any one of those things he/she will get my respect.
