Hate All You Want, But The Game Speaks The Truth


"I reached out to a lot of rappers and I told 'em what I was gonna do for Sean Bell and a lot of them just... 'I got a gang of excuses'. Turned pussy. Nobody wanna stand up and be a man. We don't have a problem putting out a mixtape dissing each other but the people that you say or you claim to hate so much, which is, or the situation that render us helpless like police brutality, excessive force, people using the shield to really deal the wrong way with human beings, you know, like nobody wanna stand up for that except me. Sh*t is f*cked up, man, people just don’t understand, man. And that's why I don’t wanna be a part of hip hop no more. It just ain’t right, man. And hip-hop just didn’t used to be like this, you know? Like, it's not why I do it. It's not why I'm here. And I just get so angry that hip hop is in the state of emergency that it's in. 'Cause people just don't care no more. So when I say that I'm going to retire, I feel just because I don't belong in this hip hop. I belong in like, the old hip hop. I should have came up in hip hop... People that really didn’t care about being vocal you know. N.W.A., Public Enemy, people that really stood. Queen Latifah, MC Lyte. Come on with this shit man. This hip hop, ain't no place for me. So I don't wanna coexist with these cats no more."
