Artist Corner: Wanna Be Rappers And Real Rappers

Personal Reflection:

Is it okay for some rappers who can’t write? These people need verses written for them word for word. Meaning rappers pretending to be gangster when they are not. But then some rappers who can write and rap gets signed. For example Major Williams is a rapper that is signed by Foxx City and can actually rap. That’s a breath of fresh air.  What I mean is, sometimes people have "The Right Look" or some labels are trying to find the next Eminem. I am going to keep it 100. These cats can maybe perform but ask them to freestyle they stumble, because their verses word for word was written for them.  Buying hooks and concepts is one thing but verses? Why do they get a title as rapper not performer? They talk about slanging drugs when all some of them ever did was beg their parents for money so they can get high, or being a thug gang banging when they went to a private school in a very rich white city without any gang violence. What were you banging your school uniform? I can go on and on.  When I was a song writer and worked with good unknown talents that are like Stunna, Cion B, Doeman, Champ, and Gigi, etc. For example one song I wrote only the hook with their help but never any of the verses. Which at the time I wanted to do. But Stunna explained to me that a true rapper should be able to flow; no one wants to be a test tube rapper.  Since we report the news, being honest and fair is all we got.  So I need to speak on this. One rapper I dated let’s call him Mr. Wannabe, which after a horrific experience (of me getting raped) I latch on to the closest asshole to me. That’s a whole another article.  Emotionally not in my right frame of mind during that time.  Anyhow Mr. Wannabe who I literally wrote a few of his rap songs word for word, and watching him record it made my stomach turn. He didn't deserve it, when there are cats with the ability to rap, write, engineer, and produce. I know singers have song writers but is it the same for rappers? I don’t know.  Let Eminem be him, and the next rapper be themselves. Say no to test tube rappers. All I can do is be honest and fair, that’s why Start Over News Magazine covers known and unknown because we want to give those with talent a chance.
