hi jd
i see you continue doing good work in the music and everything.
i definitely have a question to ask you although. i am not a hip hop expert but..
why in hip hop so many people are obsessed with money ?
like
- lil wayne talks about it in like every second line of the lyrics
- in a blog post of you there is this photo of bow wow with money in his hands
- in a song, polow da don i think, shouts ‘if you ain’t got no money take your broke a** home’
- one new song by akon is called ‘im so paid’
- even the e-mail address for the hats you posted on one of your blogs is wegettingmoney @gmail.com
i could give you like hundrends of examples like this lol
do you know why this is happening ? it is like being proud for what you earn ? or total exhibitionism ? or something else ?
and after all, what is the interest in that type of lyrics/imaginery from the listeners ? what does it interest them if lil wayne or someone from the tens of others sing about HIS money ?
of course they care since their songs sell but how is it possible ? is it logical to hear something shouting how much he earns ?
please dont hate me for my questions ! i just always have this question mark in my head when watching flying dollars in videos and lyrics like that
i hope you could address this issue and answer me in some of your videos on youtube if you can
thank you ! and congratulations for what you do i am a fan !
