I
often times wonder what it would take for a rapper to achieve the level of
success as someone such as, say, 2Pac or Biggie. Did you ever notice how rappers seem to be
the artists (Van Gogh style) of the music world, in the sense that they don’t seem
to get their true following until they’re dead?
Okay,
Dr. Dre can be the exception to the rule, as well as role model for all
aspiring rappers, but who is it that is up on top? Jay Z?
Kanye? I don’t even want to name
more names, but I will say that based on albums, songs, longevity, hard work
and everything else, Fat Tony should be a household name and the 2Pac of this
new generation.
Who
has consistently put out such good albums?
Who is seemingly everywhere yet nowhere all at once? (Like the wind) Who is a name that if you know you probably
love and otherwise you don’t know it?
Who made “Double Dragon” famous again?
So
these are new songs in the form of “Smart Ass Black Boy” because as my family
always likes to remind anyone who would call them a smart ass, “It’s better to
be a smart ass than a dumbass”. Do
yourself a favor: Don’t be a dumbass and
go buy this record.
