What? Rappers beefing? No!
Well, hip hop fans and followers everywhere saw it coming. Rapper the Game whose CD The Documentary has been running the Billboard hip hop chart for over a month now, was dismissed from 50 Cent's G-Unit on the radio in New York. Apparently Game was on air at another station and didn't know he was being dismissed. Great way to do business.
Anyway, someone in 50's entourage was shot outside of the radio station minutes later. It seemed for a while there that mainstream rappers were making an effort not to beef. What happened? It takes away from the art - man, no one can focus on the talent when the lyrical content is who's gonna shoot who and who did what with who's baby mama.
Unfortunately, these young men are the minority but - because of lack of exposure given to more positive rappers who probably don't even eat beef, much less have beef with other rappers - folks think they are representative of all of hip hop.

They're just ruining it for everyone by perpetuating the stereotype that all rappers are drugged out, homicidal thugs. As long as they're going to act that way and as long as their peers aren't going to keep them in check by publicly denouncing the immorality and stupidity of it...then we should treat them like the ghetto murders that they portray themselves to be.
Among these magnificent benefits is the chance to be able to promote your business, any business,
