Stained Glass

Not that we shouldn't hold influential artists accountable, but what about people like Cardinal Danneels who tried to cover up a sex abuse incident in the church. Religion's reaches way more people than Officer Ricky.

I think I'm Pope John...Cardinal Danneels...Hallelujah

Ok, Lupe did more on this track than Jeezy and Officer Ricky combined. Therefore, no one else should use this beat to rhyme over. Thank You.

Most Improved Award goes to...

Honestly, I understand where Khaled's coming from...but no. I can't say that these dudes in his list aren't talented, but a large majority of them are already at the top of their game. The most notable acknowledgments given are with his mentioning of Officer Ricky...that is all. Fat Joe could've been on this list a minute ago...maybe...definitely not now. His break out record as a "rapper" was "New York".

If anything, all this "article" shows me is how dated it is and how limited his range is. You can only improve but so much when you're any of the dudes he mentioned. The most progress they could make in my humble opinion is with their content. Most lyricists who reach the level of the artists mentioned in the article are technically sound, but more often than not choose to rap about the more shallow things in life. Anyways...check out the article for what it's worth. You can't have an article entitled most improved RAPPERS and use the word "hit" at least 8 times.

That being said I do wholeheartedly agree that Rick Ross is one of the most improved rappers as of late.

BAWSE

Ok...so I'm contemplating coming with a series of post inspired by the C.O. himself in addition to individuals so wealthy that they have time to worry about things like the art of smoking a cigar.

"You can pay for school, but you can't buy class"-S. Carter- As a result of this truth, I'll try and discover new an interesting things that involve having "Bawse" like tendencies that have nothing to do with selling crack/cocaine and everything to do with being educated in the art of the celebration.

On that note, here is an informative blogpost courtesy of the Haute Spot regarding important steps to smoking a cigar. Check it out here

Pumpin' That Bass

Some dude I'm not familiar with, Trae, dropped some joint with the Bawse and Wayne. This one was definitely made for a gas guzzling SUV.

"Stay still n!gga / I cut your face, have you lookin like Seal n!gga" = A-hole comment of the month

Btw I think it's funny that these dudes copped their chains from American Apparel
