This a silly guy talking about the mogul like that…You was pose to follow his wave he became a business man you listen to 10 year old albums still doing it in 2020 niggas are Entre-pre-Neurs na.
Hell you teaching niggas how to have woman feelings and cry be soft lol
Rod Wave’s opps are anyone who offers him a salad.
Rep that 727 boy! Hell yea.
Hassan Campbell said this first
Trap doesn’t stand for drugs he said anything to make money washing cars cutting grass whatever
Thats Wht pimp c was talm bout how this rappers mislead
the same thing he said about Jeezy he doing but he didnt realize that until he was asked about being a role model. Jeezy was young when he made trap or die plus when trap or die was made he was still in the streets and back then we didnt have access to an artist music as fast as now a days but Jezzy matured and we were able to see his growth and I feel we will see the same with this gifted young man.
I mean you’re an complete idiot if you think he’s y’all responsibility he’s not y’all responsibility ???????? fuck do y’all be saying he doesn’t have to owe any of you any type of explanation on why he’s telling his son “To go to college “ and he’s telling y’all to Trap ????♂️
We love you Rod Wave!!! ❤❤❤❤????????

Jeezy right to tell his son go to college. Rap game been dead for years the only one’s profiting are the independent ones. They make more off trunk sales and mixtapes. Now YouTube changed up the whole music industry and promote bullshit. Only a few living what they rap and they not trying to change up cuz they know the rap game is fake and they not about to compete when they been winning all on their own. No need to change up and sale out now cuz they know what comes with fame and power just alot of criticism from dumb ass critics. Who wants that type of publicity that comes with a major label when they can make more money and avoid all that bullshit. The rappers that do want what comes with the fame and power 9 times out of 10 are forced into projects that cause controversy for more sales and in the end the industry is the only that wins from their hard work. There’s literally nothing positive left for rappers to make a song about without sounding like the artist that came before them. If they do have real positive lyrics it will never get radio play. That’s why we here the same dam songs played on the radio. You gotta an ignorant mofo to think all these rappers are dying of drug overdose and some killed but sadly the killer never gets caught . They being set up and everyone knows it. The elites in the industry are losing bigtime to the independent labels and are so far in debt that everyone is getting exposed if they don’t get knocked off first. The fake industry has all there cards on the table and trying to win on calling a bluff when they really should be folding but they don’t want people to know all the evil shit they do so they all ratting on each other and alot of people are hiding now. They think it’s just gonna go away like it always has but now there exposed on a world platform and there’s no way around it for them this time.
True
the interveiwer sound just like vlad
and you get paid for talkin bout taking drugs because your life wasnt all perfect growin up. FOH. knew he wasnt a street nigga he just a sweet nigga lls. But, Fr he sounding like a hypocrite and he Clout chasin/bag chasing, caus he know jeezy aint that popular ( low hangin Fruit) if you will. Because jeezy aint the only one gucci, Gotti, jay z, t.i …. its there life stories. you cant relate youcant relate. guess you wouldnt feel it. or you just fake. #facts
Dumb ass jezzy was just telling his life at that time
Matter n fact Jeezy specifically said who he was talking too on his first album…"in the hearts of those, that grind with O’s/ they feel my pain, they at my shows"…..STANDING OVATION….so he not even talking to you square ass niggas.

Song in beginning called
He’s relatable. I hope he finds the healing he needs to overcome PTSD and the depression that goes along with it. I’ve been there. From childhood up. And I’m proof that it’s an everyday process to get through but it all comes down to my determination. Bless Up✨????✨
