Society is materialistic even many middle class people barely get by because they worry more about keeping up appearances than building for the future, cats from the bottom are even more likely to want to show that they made it, especially if they start getting a name, they are going to want to uphold that image

nikka stop caping. This is the only thread where I'll actually agree with these coli militants about the stupidity behind rap music. If I pull up anyone of this nikkas songs, the entire theme is how he:
- gets money
- sells so much dope that he can throw away money
- everyone else is broke boys
- riding foreign

But now, when he dies, his family can't set up shop for his funeral? Really? My nikka let's get real on this shyt. Cats get a pass for gang banging 100% based on their environment. But we ain't out here giving passes for fake rich guy lyrics.

At some point you nikkas gotta draw a line in the sand of what you're going to accept from these fake ass cats.

Instead of raps about how he got a house on his wrist, or my salary on his neck, he should've been writing lyrics about leaving his parents to pay for his debt.

You can't support your family from the grave. Throwing stacks in the strip club ain't gonna build wealth. Mods - sticky this shyt back up.

It's wild disrespectful tho breh.... it'd be one thing to talk down on these other rappers for not instantly fronting the bill on the funeral,cause i see nothing wrong with that

but you wanna talk shyt about these families for not having money? how you mad his family is trying to bury him?



Be mad at dead rappers cause they exaggerated about material possessions and the things they do..... be outright FURIOUS when their families need assistance with burying dead rappers who exaggerrated.

Tough Love is needed when people don't do shyt properly. Some people :cape: rappers and have no sense of accountability. Like spoiled children.

I don't think the OP is mad at the family. He's mad at the hypocrisy of the now dead rapper and his friends. You know the same friends that call themselves "Glo Gang."

I understand it comes off as disrespectful. But it's def something we need to talk about more in public imo. We don't need to say names (to keep it respectful), but this shyt is becoming ridiculous. Seeing cats pour up and talk about money, then need gofundme accounts for their funerals is crazy. I don't know how we can broach this topic in a respectful way, but I feel this needs to be THE CONVERSATION in hip hop from now on.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
Most ppl in general living paycheck to paycheck.
and out of most people's paycheck, about $1.53 is all you need to take out to have 50k life insurance

i got 500k and it costs me 9 dollars a check breh

there's no excuse to have a family and/or kids and not have life insurance to take care of them when you die

Have any of y'all ever buried anyone? much less knew the actual cost behind it?

like you really expect a 22 year old, who's barely lived life as an adult.....to have all of his personal affairs in order in the event that he dies?

A lot of your parents, and grandparents don't have life insurance...and when that day comes, you're gonna see where a lot of these families are coming from.
you're missing the point... the avg funeral cost $7-10k and it's not like you have to pay it flat out in cash.. funeral homes have financing and plans and shyt.. they understand everyone in america and most people, don't have 10 stacks laying around in case someone gets in a car accident


what people can't seem to understand is with rappers only... you don't see this with other genre's... you def don't see it with other famous entertainers

when you making even 1k a show... 500 a show.. it's very hard to imagine, you don't even have 10k to your name.. 5k to put half up... 2k for a downpayment... not enough money to even have a funeral service.. let alone some life insurance.. ESPECIALLY when you rap about either the streets (should be aware how quick a life can end) or money (shouldn't be rapping bout money knowing you ain't got any)



so either these rappers are flat out stupid, and haven't seen this play out with 20 other dudes, and haven't learned, hey maybe i should get insurance or at least put away 5k.....

or the families are just money grabbing... knowing they could pay for a funeral.. but are like "lets see if we can have the fans donate the money"


either way :scust:

You really only see this happening with rappers who never actually had deals... or rappers who's time in the sun left long ago.



Ask yourself, who was paying to see/hear Hussein Fatal in 2015? 2010? 2005? it's not like this dude was sitting on a fortune from his Hit Em Up verse in 1996.

Like, if you told me Hussein Fatal was flat broke..... it wouldn't surprise me, especially with the fact that his career achievement is being on somebody elses record 20 years ago.

There is no gofundme page for Capo.... it's for Hussein Fatal.

But Capo, who had no record deal...and is best known, for being affiliated with Chief Keef. not having a place to live? or owning a vehicle... Not too surprising.

But how my son ain't have no whip and no place to stay??? No wonder he was outside.

Hussein fatal? How you 50 years old without insurance. How nobody can throw a lil money in?

This shyt happens time and again and then theres a go fund me?

You rap nikkas make your career shining and shytting on the common man but without the fans you wouldnt exist then you need go fund me... Go figure


You could've made your point without shytting on dead nikkas:comeon:

Thanks for the correction.

But lol @ "not too surprising"….really? Basic common sense because we're out of the hood tells us it's not too surprising. By his records would you know - no. His choice of cars - no. His instagram - no.

So it's not too surprising to say that about every single person in that crew. But we know what the automatic retort would be if we tell them that while their alive:
