Some hip-hop artists talk a big game but don’t have any real-life experience hanging out with felons.
Not so for Snoop.
I never heard Benny the Butcher before but his verse was aiight. Jadakiss was nice, as per usual. Snoop phoned in a hook, kinda strange it’s his song without doing a verse, that’s lazy; but the final verse has got to be the most awful piece of garbage I’ve ever heard come out of Busta Rhymes’ mouth.
mostly just weird hearing Snoop on such a heavily East-coast-sounding track.
Are you sure that’s the way you want to phrase that? Imma need brain bleach now.
And he commented on it, too:
That is a fucking fantastic ad.
“I did for my city what Michael Vick did for Atlanta”?
UM.
(And to be fair, I’m a big believer in Vick’s redemption story in Philly. He took the opportunity given to him after his jail sentence and became such an advocate for animal rights that a local shelter in Philly allowed him to adopt a dog. I’m a big fan of the man.
(But celebrating what he did in Atlanta? No.)
