Like at what point did it go from us being kids or younger and just enjoying rap, to now sitting here listening to Billionaire Hov telling us what he’s got, what we don't have, etc. I’m not hatin on his success, but where’s the entertainment in that? And on top of that, we're paying (him) for it 
Now I know everyone on the Coli is making six-figs, but even at that, you still can’t relate to 99% of what he’s talking about.
But look at other genres of music and it’s a stark separation of how it’s presented to the listener. No other music is the presenter telling you all of what he has(unless it's love or something like that) and what you dont have.
Hes not the only one who “kicks the braggin raps”, as Nas would say….but even the younger dudes, like Drake, Cole, Wale, etc have other sh*t to rap about other than how much money they have.
So is it just that Jay is the last truly successful rapper left from an era many of us grew up in? The Golden era of rap, if you will….and so we listen to him because he’s still here?
Am I reachin?
