If he's that deep into it he's not listening to your ass anyway.

What you think he's gonna say "oh yes father let me abandon the fame and turn my back on my gang and just move"

At that point you have already failed as a parent. No point trying to be all strict now. Cards have been dealt so we gon have to just ride the wave and see what happens.

My priority is to make sure the rest of the family is safe so maybe look at moving the rest of the immediate family out of the danger area.

Well..

I would tell my son to not bring any of that bs to the 🏡. If he was 18, then he may need to get his own spot. I would also caution him that he is obligated to adhere to the street code which means that he need to stay solid & true to the game. No smut on his jacket and if he get caught up & do time, then make that his paperwork is straight otherwise he gonna have some issues with his fellow inmates.

We're moving multiple states away. If he really wants the career and funds, be like keef and dip, focus on the music, healthier relationships and more peaceful overall living.


If he wants the gang too, or just the gang... We're moving. As in me, my wife and any future Kids. He ain't gunna have us hogtied and tortured for his foul choices.

good thing is i make enough money to be comfortable on my own, so if my son was bringing in a lot of cash doing something i didn't approve of. he would have to abandon that lifestyle if he wants any type of relationship with me.

i wouldn't be mad at a less well to do family selling out for a better life though.

Your asking me to suspend a lot of disbelief on this matter, Sir.

1. There’s no way My Boy would be in a gang without my knowledge, because I’m quite affiliated myself.

2. If he is rapping he is probably already under my supervision/management, as I also a Lyrical Nutritionist
and Beat Cosmologist.

Therefore, I would probably know of his burgeoning star status before he does.
So to answer your question: that would be the perfect time to reveal his connection to me,
which will boost his Street Cred. Then we will try to arrange some kind of distribution with
an entity in the Warner Music Group.

Depends on whether or not I have other kids.

If he's my only chold, try to take him off that path.

If he is not my only child, ban him from coming to my home but try to take him off that path.

No bytch. I am perfect and cannot be corrected :camby:



I'm riding the wave I.e. going with whatever happens. A metaphor for riding an ocean wave with a surf board and "going in the direction of that wave"... allowing ones self to be taken in the direction of said event.

edit: oh I just clocked your a troll haha

I would say it's already too late to change much at that point.

Exactly, Lost cause to fight it. Would be better to try to steer it. I believe it was Sun Tzu who said sonething about not facing a raging river head on, but by redirecting the currents. Maybe just mold him into a comercial gangbanger like 21 or lil baby instead of a king von.


Also, if we are being honest lil dude might be making more than both of his parents combined if he has a million fans, so he could drop you if you are too harsh. Even without a record deal, a youtuber regularly getting a million views is 6-fig status.
