s can you bold the important parts

QuoteI guess the source of my disappointment comes from just watching lots of other men in hip-hop, just like male rappers, have their career setbacks and go through things. Or even when a Black male rapper misspeaks something? just seeing Black men go through the motions, seeing the Black mass just kind of seemingly accepting it as just an attribute of their artistry. So they?ll be like, ?Kanye West is saying all that because he?s crazy? or ?Okay, yeah, R. Kelly raped a girl but damn, he makes some good music.? I don?t feel like I ever got that kind of empathy. I never got those kinds of privileges, I never got those kinds of allowances, especially coming in the rap game without any real rap friends. I basically came in the building by myself. There was nobody to validate me, there was nobody to vouch for me or whatever, and I got mishandled a lot.

It made me really bitter for a very long time, very, very, very bitter, so bitter to the point that I would just kind of say things that I didn?t mean, like, ?I hate Black men? and shit like that. I would just say things like that because I would just feel so misunderstood. It was all purposeful, like when T.I. was threatening me with physical violence or when Jim Jones was threatening me with physical violence. Come on, hip-hop should have said something about it, and nobody said anything about it.

and that will forever be her problem and the reason why no one cares for her. She's just angry at the world. All those black men she's mentioning literally let their music speak for itself so it's easy for people to overlook their wrongdoings. Azealia however is in some BS every time she's in headlines. Miss me with this 'woe is me' act. It's late and tired at this point.

and her music isn't even THAT good. :dead: she takes herself way too seriously, lol.

QuoteYou see Kanye do it all the time. He uses his socioeconomic leverage to latch on to some other young act when it?s like? you know, it doesn?t help culture go, because what you have is these same 10 faces at the front of every cultural movement. It?s not healthy.

Omg If she'd just take her meds >>

I know Azealia will surpass many of them. I respect her a lot. She should take a break to study and travel and come back with a calm and collected book.
