Rappers these days have no talent.

They care more about the money than the craft.

They want to be at the top…but don’t wanna start at the bottom.

They tell you what you want to hear and not what you need to hear. 

They care more about you buying the album more than they care about you liking the lyrics.

They objectify women instead of building them up.

They call them bitches instead of referring to them as the queens that they are.

No disrespect to the real rappers out there.

The one’s who wouldn't’t care whether they sold 2 albums or 1 million.

the ones who care about the craft.

This is for the rappers who call women bitches and hoes.

The ones who only talk about drugs and money

and guns and gangs.

Rap is the freedom of expression

But how much freedom should they truly have?

When our future generation is being murdered everyday 

When our women are disrespected and don’t think highly of themselves 

So they settle for less than they deserve.

No.

I’m not tryna diss rappers,

I’m just trying to educate them.

Don’t they see what their music is doing?

It has a strong influence on black boys.

These boys look up to you.

and you are not setting a good example.

You teach them money and power is everything.

You tell them that the streets is the place to be.

Instead of encouraging them to go to school and graduate high school.

and go to college.

Instead of telling them to get off the streets because there’s nothing there.

Instead of teaching them that women are queens not hoes, not thots, and certainly not bitches.

And until rappers begin to uplift a generation 

they will remain untalented.
