As I always say when this topic comes up, its not about whether you had both parents or not. Kiss wasn't no wild guy but spoke wild shyt in his raps so when people find out his upbringing it brings everything into question.
As I also said on this topic in years past: a)I never had the impression he was a tough guy or big money guy; and b)years and years ago I was told by New Yorkers, summarizing, that all those Lox dudes "were around" but nobody was really noteworthy for anything in the streets.
Meaning, those dudes likely dipped they feet in and out at times, but none of these guys were what they portrayed, and if you listened to the music they portrayed themselves as factors. nikkas from YO and The Boroughs essentially affirmed what my impression of these guys was anyway.
It ain't about him having both parents at home. Him having both parents at homr is just a microcosm for many, I think, that he was playing a character. And alot of people who grew up on these dudes and the era they came up in, glamorized these guys, so years later it hurts some nikkas feelings to learn Kiss the rapper was an embellisher.
