Talib Kweli: "Rick Ross Is A Misguided 40-Year-Old"

[testmon112]

More publicity for Rick Ross then. Keep him relevant.

[JamaicanPattlez]

Ross flow on Accident Murderers is outstanding!

Yeah, I was actually surprised when I heard it. Makes you wonder why he doesn't do that more often. Seems like a lot of the mainstream rappers lack the ability... they just don't put in the effort as much anymore, apparently. I could be wrong.

[Chet Starr]

Is this what Rick Ross said? How is this possibly offensive

“Put molly all in her champagne / She ain’t even know it / I took her home and I enjoyed that / She ain’t even know it,"

Well for one, he slipped her drugs. That's fucked up anywhere, and deserves a ass beating.

& then the second part implies date rape "she ain't even know it"

Whether he intended the rape line or not, it's still fucked up








But I don't judge rappers by their content. I still listen to SPM, and he is a convicted child molester, so fuck it

[JamaicanPattlez]

I wonder if he really did mean to put it in, knowing he'd get in trouble.

[Chet Starr]

Rape is fucking bad no questions asked but this is fucking lyrics big fucking deal, who really gives a shit what he says really like this is not the worst lyrics I have seen... Much worse I have seen.

Whatever this is retarded.

I totally agree with you.

This is like when LGBT attacked Eminem.

It's entertainment folks, don't take this shit literally.

Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit
Don't quote me, boy, I ain't said shit

People will always take entertainment in music seriously.

[JamaicanPattlez]

Yep they do which is retarded, than they let a killer loose cuz he plead not guilty and said he insane.

People would rather hear a song about an important topic rather than do about it. Look at the song Macklemore has called Same Love I think it's called. People LOVE the track, and I like it too, it's a great track. But how many people really go out and fight for what they believe in? Barely any. Yet when someone speaks their thoughts on a subject and it goes against what society believes, everyone and their mothers start rioting everywhere like Lil Wayne became President.

[JamaicanPattlez]

Positivity doesn't seem to thrive as much as negativity in society. Remember those school shootings, the Trayvon Martin case and the Dark Knight Colorado incident? EVERYONE was talking about gun control and how it was necessary, we were having discussions that honestly needed to be had. But look how quickly the talk faded, now you don't even know what's the next part of the stories in the school shootings, the Colorado shooting and Trayvon Martin. The only time people care is when serious shit happens, nobody cares when everything's happy go lucky.

Honestly so of you STAN's hating on Ross are stupid. First off this whole backlash against Ross, I blame the internet and all of these petition bullshits. Seriously some people need to get a fucking life. I read that people stood in front of a Reebok store petitioning against Ross. That's fucking stupid. The workers, the employees, store managers as those Reebok stores had nothing to fucking do with this bullshit. Those are the people you're hurting because people will see people are hating against the store, people will be scared to go in the store, meaning a worker won't get paid when all the guy or girl is doing the right thing over this shit.

Don't blame the Slim Shady card. Was the Slim Shady on that Kim track or Marshall? That was Marshall. Eminem has said just as bad or worse shit, Jay-Z has, Biggie has, Pac has, NaS has and so on. Not comparing Ross to them but just an example against rappers who has said that shit or shit like that who some of you praise.

I fucking hate Rick Ross and his music but I will defend him on this. Muthafuckers forgetting about the 1st Amendment. Nowadays muthaufuckers get fired, hated on, and petitioned against for speaking their mind. Ross isn't the only one.

I don't understand for the life of me why people take this shit seriously. All Ross does is spit lies.

[MistaVijilantee]

He obviously doesn't listen to King Gordy or Brotha Lynch Hung.
