My first thought is "Gavin is an idiot" and the general assembly there is a rubber stamp.

Liberalism is a mental disease.

I thought hip hop started in prison.

Newsome is a corrupt traitor.

if you're a successful hip hop artist, you're probably a worthless thug who had your first gun charge at around 12 years old, so you belong in jail!

rock music creates an EARTHQUAKE of sound, hip hop puts me to sleep!

Ewsom keeps proving how stupid he is.

when i was in high school, everyone i knew loved hip hop. it was like a shared religion of the tribe, and i was the outsider

 

[basquebromance]

let me try a ryhme:

Mikey mouse built a house
he built it by the border
earthquake came and rocked his shit
Now its in the water

You might be dope on the mic,
but your music sucks
Not me, I got some dope beats
I'm an entertainer, not a lyricist
I'm so far from all you cats out there
If I get popular, I know that ain't fair

I’m back hip hoppers,
I back my scripts and documents,
raps hit the block
it’s a wrap it’s the apocalypse!

 

[basquebromance]

every syllable you drop is pivotal
its not original its not as memorable
ill lyrical till hes so popular they sick of you
pandemic a threat level five its critical
kill em off with a word like euthanasia
till it spread to the youth in asia

 

[basquebromance]

You ever witness rapport like this before?
It's 'cause y'all kiss the floor,
say Bismillah.
It's the chosen one, with the golden tongue
Flow for the old and young
when I'm holdin one
In the front row sitty,
we show no pity
Where kids get jiggy and girls are so pretty.

Far as the eye can see
not even a satellite.
Now stop and turn around and look.
As ya stare in the darkness,
ya knowledge is took!

This is surreal

Only in lib la la land
