<{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Honestly, you guys who hate rappers because they are mainstream are pathetic. You have no idea whether they are fake or not. Mainstream music is what makes money, they sell records and make money, that's all that matters.
50 cent, Young Joc, ect. Those guys are the smart ones, they are making all the money. I would much rather make mainstream music while getting paid tons of money, then make 'real' music to please the small percentage of people out their who listens to it.</div>
While I understand that, give me a break. The fact that some of those people even GET DEALS is f*cking absurd. Ying Yang Twins... WTF are they good for? They have no f*cking talent. They are 2 burnt out f*cking losers who have no talent, no good lyrical ability, and they honestly have the IQ of a 10 year old raisin.
Lil Jon... he gets paid millions of dollars to scream words. Well, why don't we get any random kid in a high school with ADD and say "I'll pay you $4 million if you scream "yeah" on a song with me." That's what happens.
And the other guys... "I'm fly, I got a car... I'm BALLIN!" What f*cking talent is that? I could make a song with their lyrical level in 10 minutes.
And I know what you might say: "What about the sh*t you listen to, CB32. All about their life in the struggle and how they hustle." Well, they have talent. They speak the truth about their lives and what really goes on. The guys that go mainstream come from those places and they call themselves hard and then they go around singing like girls and talking about nothing but cars and how good they look now.
I wouldn't mind mainstream if those motherfuckers actually had talent. The problem is that they don't have any talent, honestly.

BINGO! You nailed it, and that song nails it. Big L is a legend.
