2008

so everybody's been askin' me, "what's good with '08?". if i knew, i'd let y'all know, real talk. right now, i'm not too sure with what this year will bring. of course, my daughter will be here in March. that's the only guarantee. i'm finishin' broadcasting school in a couple weeks. me and my daughter's mother are on the road of making a real family situation (i love you, Reese). but this music shit? it's really starting to aggravate me. maybe that's why Joe Budden is my favorite rapper...we both go through them long-ass periods with no real progression, then we put it all into a classic song. difference between us is, that nigga got a million original tracks to spit over, not to mention a studio he can consistently go to lol. i swear, y'all...when my shit is laid out and i got that studio stamped...y'all gon' love the end results. i think i'mma make "Vol.2: The Hope" a 2-disc mixtape...y'all been waitin long enough that you should get more for your money...which is really none, since the mixtape will be free lol. really though...i'm feeling like a lot of y'all are sideways on me, i can't lie. people tell me they wanna do this, do that, etc., but they ain't actually tryin' to make it happen. y'all hear me...i got the talent. i got the hunger. i got the drive. i just ain't got the resources. so since i'm supposed to be cool people to y'all, ain't that when y'all would come into the picture? i'm just sayin...cuz i'm not a nigga that asks for a lot, puttin' my hand out and shit, but i do A LOT for niggaz in this rap shit, just out of love. and these niggaz keep doin them after usin' my help and then i sit back and i'm ji' hurtin' at the moment. not like "my feelings is hurt", but my pockets is hurt and i'm bein' held back from doin' what i do best, which is make this music. and i love my management at H/H Global, but things are gonna have to change soon, man. that's all i'mma say, because H/H business is H/H business...that's not for the public. but things are definitely gon' have to change and soon. i'm turnin' 20 years old on February 1st...i don't want my birthday to come and things are the same as they are now. stamp that.
