lol covering his sexist ass for the sake of his profitability.
I lived long enough to watch gangsters turn into posers
Are gangsters preferable? Doesn't sound like either end of that spectrum is great, but I'd prefer my suburb be full of posers.
My gangster neighbors are cool people. Certainly better than your average neighbor.
But... What crimes do they do to qualify as gangster then?
🤷♀️ Not sure. None of my business.
As long as they are real gangsters.
A lot of people get confused with the tryhards that dress flashy and show everyone their money as if they are a Hollywood hip-hop celebrity.
They're nothing like that; you'd think they're just ordinary people at a glance.
They got their crip walk down and are really good at hand shakes?
Because THAT'S Hip Hop!
They could be hood.
Its authentic. Snoop came by the gangster lifestyle honestly, he grew up that way.
Changing your views to be more progressive, when you are person with a public image, may be disingenuous. I'm not going to form an opinion on his true motives, but plenty of people will.
