Do you guys think Rick Ross deserves to be in Hip Hop considering his past?

[Soopahigh]

i dont care about his past and dont bump his music.

I hate to break it to you pal, but all those gangland stories by Nas and Mobb, and Biggie, etc were fucking fake too. These guys were nobody growing but pretend to be these hard mafioso like thugs and brag about it. The Firm was the epitome of it.

I think Rick Ross sucks because I think he sucks. I could care less what he did for a living because all gansta rap is fiction anyay. However since he did spend all that time in prison (a place Nas, Mobb, Biggie, or Jay never really spent any real time), at least Ross probably has seen real thugs in their most vulnerable and has heard stories and imitated a lifestyle he knows really well.

He's probably slapped around the hardeest dude on the block more than once because of the position he was in. Nas or Jay probably can't even show their face to the top guys in Queensbridge or Marcy.

Rap is music for and by stupid niggers, why are we complaining when one stupid nigger gets caught lying about one issue, instead of 15000 others... like for instance, mafia ties, criminal past, wealth, sexual history, etc...I love the one dimensionality of rap fanatics.

Man I love this rap game
Mainly cuz its cool
To add a little spice to the life you've been through
Everyone exaggerates a tiny little bit
To make that shit sound more gangster than it really is

Anybody who paid money for his music should be sterilized
