He was putting out platinum hits when i was in 5th grade and truly one of the west coast’s greatest legends.

The above posting is right on the money, Soulja Boy isn’t even Hip Hop while Ice-T is Hip Hop in it’s truest form.

Some of y’all _ _ _ _ _ _ _ is Bitches too…..1991 motherfuckers….also, it should not have been Common and Russel Simmons speaking to Oprah….if Ice -T was present on that show Oprah would be be eating shit about the whole “misogyny” brand to hip hop , after all , Ice said it best , not all women are bitches ….just the bitches (men included)!!!

Point being that Ice T was addressing real social issues about Hip Hop before the masses could even weigh in on their value,this man is a hip hop ambassador whom the media a tired of dealing with as a result of his intelligence.

It’s not that Ice-T is irrelevant , it’s that he is so straight up he doesn’t bother saying the same things he was saying 20 years ago.

This man is also a true artist who despite the public and media, crossed over from hip hop to Metal on the basis of his own musical ambitions, not because his record label told him it was the flavor of the month.

Soulja boy should shut the fuck up and ‘recognize game’ when you see it (Return of the Real 1997 , double platinum and this tycoon retired on it, better that can be said about most rappers out there!~)

Did it matter that LeBron James hit the NBA at 18 yers old? Did vets that play the game like Robert Horry or Garnett foul him like a kid or a grown man?

Soulja Boy is a professional rap artist…that makes him PEERS with Ice T as far as his rap career is concerned. Why does it matter that he is 17 years old? He could go to Iraq and kill people…half our military is “kids” but nobody cryin about that shit…they like, “Why’d Ice tell him to Eat A Dick?”
I’ll tell you why… cuz THIS IS HIP HOP and we are our own harshest critics. “Eat a dick” is the hiphop equivalent to the british sayin “Bugger off”. He didnt attack Soulja Boy personally…he said his music was wack…SO WHAT!!

And, to be honest, SOulja Boy shit is not hip hop – it’s House music, damn near Techno. They repeat the same shit 30 times…thats traditional chicago bassment house music…that shit is NOT hip hop.

But we keep lettin corporations tell us what OUR shit is and categorize OUR shit. Soulja Boy did not kill hip hop, the corporate grip on the game told us that was hip hop and we believed it…that shit is House music.

Hip Hop cant die cuz it aint never been alive.
