Shawty Lo #1
Are you honestly surprised? He has jumped on everyone's track and spit his nursery rhymes to the masses and ppl think that this is okay?! One thing I will give him is that he usually has very good beats (i.e. Foolish, Dey Know). He def takes his fame for granted and if he was not serious about rapping then why even start. These are the lyrics that catapulted him to number one on my list (Gucci Man dodged a bullet on this one but he has the Honorable Mention award)
Gucci Bandanna- Soulja Boy ft Gucci Man and Shawty Lo
"Shawty Lo I really run Atlanta
Scarf around my neck Gucci Bandanna
Niggas talking slick, they filled with ammo
But I dont care so gotdamn you
This big ass watch, cost more than yours
I built a house you can't afford
Its stupid big, got a ocean view
Its way up there, I look down on you
We flex down here, thats what we do
Get in our way, I flex on you
You acting monkey, we keep bananas
Them goons with me, rocking bandanna"
Need I say more.....
To all the artist on this list, please accept this as an intervention meaning I know this hurts but its only about helping you out in the long run lol. There are millions of talented rappers out there who didn't get a chance because someone saw something more in you, so please don't take your position lightly.
Every time you step behind a mic, try and spit your best lyrics instead of recording your worst freestyles. Next time you want to scream over the track.....don't, maybe just talk and try to have a dictionary in your hand so you can incorporate some new adjectives into your vocabulary. Next time you write a song don't, entitle it "Shawty Got Gifts" or shoot Soul Train in the middle of your bank robbery while telling me to put my hands in the air...
Until next time............ hire a ghostwriter (Skillz or Smitty) haha I'm out.
