It's definitely a puff piece to boost Jimmy's "brand" and stroke his ego now that he can write his own story and get everyone to watch.

But it's also an interesting look at what it takes to be successful in the music industry. A lot of it is right place, right time, and making the most of that moment. And hard work always wins. I learned a lot from it, despite all the bullshyt in it.

It is well made, but it is a self aggrandizing piece of material if I ever saw one. Fake self deprecating awe shucks moments, that are there only to try and keep some balance, but it is surface cleaning stuff with no depth.


Anthing in particular that you wanted to see?

Don't know why I didn't connect JJ Fad with Ruthless. Will.Iam should be Odd Future... That D.O.C. was hard to watch. Did not know all those details and wish I didn't.

I'm just getting back in and I forgot I cancelled my HBO last month! :martin::beli::mjcry::sadbron:

I'm confused breh. :huh:
You cancelled HBO and you've got internet.:hmm: That sounds like a win-win to me.:whistle: Less expenses, and yet the material from HBO is still available and at your disposal if you care to indulge in it.:scheme:
