Does it bother you that rappers get high as hell and still make trash?

I'm not saying drugs can substitute for skill but every rapper I know that gets high goes up a notch creatively. You have all these rappers lighting up and spitting horrible shyt. Am I the only one who gets a little bothered by this?

Anyone who has killed a bottle of Henny or smoked up before attempting to be creative knows that mind altering substances loosens you up for creativity. Just try freestyling before and after drinking or blazing up. I'm damn near Manny Fresh level after smoking or drinking a few glasses of wine. On adderall I'm damn near Canibus from the Wyclef era

But what I think happens is that after awhile you get so used to that shyt that the creativity isn't there anymore. The novelty wears off. Your serotonin levels are shot. You can't get to that place anymore.

Hence Weezy still sipping on that surp but now he's struggling.

smoking weed everyday is expensive, rappers swear they smoke 4-6 kush blunts a day which adds up to what, $200?

rappers ain't getting their weed botany game up either, or it'd be in the raps.

Does anyone in here have experience with Percocet? My homegirl left me 4/5mg pills and I've been looking at them for 2 weeks. Never tried it before because I don't like downers

Drugs don't equal better music for everyone. I'll probably say it's a small group of people that it really makes better. If you need to take something to be good just stop, there's others that are gifted without any bullshyt in their system. Step aside
