Drake i know lil wayne got a sealed case in Arizona already but how does this sound 4 u as far as going 2 court pussy nigga SON OF SAM.
ayo that fat ass nigga cube is still rapping?SMH this nigga is like 45 and he make shitty movies about shaving other niggaz hair and call himself gangsta…
this nigga is lame he made all this noise about his album like im the west and other niggaz ain’t west,nigga shut the fuck up millions of people are west 1000s of rappers are from west u need to stick to ur fat ass movies…
this nigga made all kinds of hype for his last album he went to suck jeezy’s dick so he could get some south sales,he went to suck lil wayne’s! dick for a verse but lil wayne! ignored his broke ass and the results were obvious…
his last shit went plastic selling 60k first week,niggaz lil wayne! gets that money for a mere verse….
what i hate the most is niggaz still considering this lil nigga realevant,this nigga sold like 150k his last shit with all that gangsta rap made do it and shit,lil wayne! sold 3mill of C3 that would make cube what?a rat compared to weezy!…observe:
3 million = 150 x 20 so
LIL WAYNE! = 20 x ice faggot cube
lil wayne! is da greatest of all da time fuck haters
So I take It Your about 16-21yrs old…. Cube has a independent record label,So 150k in sales,GUESS WHAT? DUDE CAKED UP.All sales money goes to Mr. Jackson. So Wayne did 3mil. After Universal Takes there cut.And then You know Baby Takes his cut,I’m sure there’s a few more people in line. Then Dwayne get a check. Oh Yeah,When’s the last time you heard about Cube going to jail? Or seen Cube Kiss another man on the Lips? CUBE is VERY relevant….And don’t give me that shit about role model
It ain’t wise to chastise and preach
Just open the eyes of each
Cause laws are made to be broken up
What niggas need to do is start loc-ing up
And build mold and fold theyself into shape
Of the nigga ya love to hate…….
“he went to suck lil wayne’s! dick ” I think this line was meant to describe yourself in all your posts. I mean, it’s ok to rock to Lil Wayne, which I don’t do, but you are the stan of all wayne stan’s.
@handdddyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy- Nigga, whether Cube sells 3 mill or 150000, he still gets more money because it is his label. Cube’s status as a legend is cemented and he is still in the spotlight. Maybe not as much as Lil Wayne because he doesn’t use Auto-Tune or make jingle raps, but more Mcs look up to Cube than Wayne. Wayne can’t even spend his money without permission. Cube’s catalog is 20 years deep. Not many new MCs have even 20 minutes in their catalog. Think before he speak first. If you don’t want to buy Cube, just say that, but don’t spit dumb shit.
You guys are some lil wayne dick riders. Ice Cube gets more respect on the mic then LIl Wayne will ever get. Ice cube talks about real shit going on in the world and Lil Wayne just raps about garbage. And if you want to go there with record sales Eminem is murdering lil wayne like he has twice on a track already! LOL. Sucka
Thank You! Handddyyy Must have skipped school to blog about Lil Wayne…
scarface
big boi
yo gotti all im buying do you
Cube was going platinum in 90, what the fvck u talkin’ bout. How much of that $ is wayne givin up to Birdman, Cube keepin his shit. U dont understand the mathamatics of the music biz. Cube indepentant 150k albums at 15$ a pop, he making like $*8.50-$9.00 an album dumbshit. do the math…………
He aint gotta dickride nobody, and the fact that wayne claims to be blood lets u know he’s on the west’s dick anywayz. Explain to me how wayne claim to be this and that and he been in the rap game since he was like 12… maybe he the one that should be in movies, cuz he’s the one thats been trying to act hard.
I’m trying to tell this dude too. You hit the nail on the head buddy!
“he went to suck lil wayne’s! dick ” I think this line was meant to describe yourself in all your posts. I mean, it’s ok to rock to Lil Wayne, which I don’t do, but you are the stan of all wayne stan’s.
Damn what happened to that Chamillionaire and Joell Ortiz?! I was really looking forward to those. And Jeezy isn’t dropping now either? There were like 6-7 albums in June I was looking forward to and now Em and Fest are really the only ones. I might check out the Roots and maybe Vinnie Paz’s album but damn I can’t wait for Free Agent to drop.
you new people to this site handyyyy been do this shit for two years now kick rocks and keep it moving
You should get your son a helmet. And who do you think you are? kick rocks and keep it moving. GTFOH! with that crap.
