back in the day in hip hop if you was a graffiti writer and you were accomplished, and you saw a new dude coming up that wasnt that good, you would take to him and mentor him on style and you know, how to do the shit right. then dude takes the newfound tips and shit, practices and practices and one day becomes good enough to mentor someone himself.
and i think he made a great point with that. if ice-t truly wholeheartedly feels these guys are ruining what ice t so passionately wants to keep alive and creative...he could have made a call to souljah boy and been like look man im glad u makin your money, you made it now...but you got a responsibility as a mc to do certain things in honor of the ones before you..maybe souljah boy woulda felt him...and wed be listening to newer,more creative southern rappers being coached by legends...that was a great point and unfortunately ice-t, as much of a legend as he is...didnt even think of that
ice t has to feel a little stupid at the end of the day, og or not..possibly the most ignorant statement ive ever heard the man make
