Im having a problem following Rappers or anyone else thats got some rep on twitter and here's why... Lately I've been searching for some upper level ish to post on ILL. When I joined twitter, I thought this would be a cool place to get a feel of different rapper personalities and even get them to drop a line on the site themselves(promoting themselves, the site and benefiting us with some tips or knowledge. What I would call Networking...or so I thought.
While following RoyceDa5'9, the first thing I noticed was this dude was funny and had a seriously big sense of humor...just some of the things he said cracked me up. So one day I notice a twit from him (not to me) saying something like..."Im not on twitter to do any business, I twit for fun so don't ask me ish about business". I respect that but it was the way he said it that kinda bothered me. First, whoever asked him a question was probally a fan that didn't realize that he didn't conduct any business on twitter and to come off like that is kinda rude.
Anyway, then I noticed him talking ish to somebody else saying that they only had 2000 followers and he had 200,000 followers(not the actual numbers but y'all get the picture). So now Im kinda confused, because 1st he says he only twits for fun but then he turns around and uses his number of followers as a tool of measuring his success in a sense. I've noticed the same with Swizz and Premo, they don't really give anything back to their fans (the people that bought their ish back in the day).
I don't knock what you cats do, its none of my business but to see people trying to just get a hello from these cats is starting to make me sick because they treat their own fans like pets. I give respect where its due but c'mon show some luv every now and then. Stop being a smartass for a minute and make some kids day by simply acknowledging him/ her. These cats are so up on themselves that its crazy...as far as Im concerned the best thing Royce did was the BEEF ish between him and D12. Im not hating, Im just saying "is he as BIG as he thinks he is?
Then you got cats that are BIG, and we've talked about giving passes to these cats. At the end of the day we're all people, I can't put myself below any person. I can't justify you treating me like ish because you are a well known rapper. I just can't do it, nor do I understand how anyone else can.
Share your thoughts on following these cats that don't give a ish about you. Do you think its just a game they play? Should they even get a pass to treat you like ish?
