There’s like thousands of “the next great” out there. They all talk the talk, but they don’t walk the walk.

Back to a previous post, I lol @ people who think Souljah Boy is actually an “artist”. Maybe if he didn’t mumble. And please don’t draw comparisons to Digital Underground, at least I can hear what they say.

That would be more consistent with your prior posts. Good for you having $55,000 to gamble on a single stock for 5 days. With that kind of free cash, I’m surprised you don’t have a house already.

lol what prior posts? The one where i told someone where to get a certain pair of jeans?

And i didnt have a spare 55k. Stock was bought using full margin available.

Even better, you’re a student with a margin account and you borrowed up to half of the $55,000 to gamble on a single stock for 5 days.

The shit gets awfully deep around here.

What, I thought $20k gains in five days were par for the course?

gsxtacy: If we assume for the sake of discussion that you’re telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, then I would say that while it’s possible that you’re going to become a filthy rich investor in the future, it’s much more likely that you were merely blind-ass lucky this time around.

In short, don’t get cocky. If it happened the way you say it happened, then you hit a grand slam; don’t play it off like it was no big deal and that you can easily reproduce similar results.[/quote]

I was merely responding to a previous post about how this group of people had not learned about “deferred gratification”. Therefor I went onto explain that after profiting off this endeavour, I was setting aside the money for something I will need later in life, and therefor will appreciate it all the more when i get it. Thus showingg that previous posters assumption was incorrect.

I really dont have any reason to lie about any of this. But this is the internet and everything is doubted. You may also want to check a prior post of mine in a thread about investing, about making a few thousand shorting general electrics earnings. If i was trying to act like a big shot, wouldnt all my umbers be extremely high.

Im also pretty positive I never said I could easily reproduce it, or that the market wasnt especially lucky for me in thos days prior, I just defended myself when someone said I hadnt looked at any risks and just randomly picked some chinese solar stock out of the 5 or so that had earnings calls that week. I evaluated a stock, so a good entry point and held until I felt it was good to sell. Im also holding about 1200 shares of sirius radio bought at 3.76 a share, so I am well aware of what it is for something to not work out.

I also have no interest in being an investor aside from the occasional bit of day trading. Im going into investor relations. Being able to spin why a company lost someones pension in the market should be an interesting job.

souljah boy made a mockery of hip hop. My neighbour made me watch a clip of him on Ellen showing her how to do the dance. That was the end of rap as I knew it.

One artist i always liked was Juelz Santana. I loved the Face-Off mixtape. Stack Bundles was always good as well. Unfortunately, we all know how that story ended.

no you tard, this thread isnt about economics, save that shit for the poly w.i. forum. this thread is about music and clothes, thats fucking it. it isnt about the slave trade and cotton production, it isnt about who invented the keyboard, it isnt about stock portfolios, it isnt about social-economics. its about fucking clothes, and hip-hop.

you obviously know nothing about either one so leave the damn thread because every post in here by you has been about something absolutely irrelevant, go troll somewhere else you dungeons and dragons looking motherfucker.

says the guy who made the thread to start with. like seriously dude if you guys want to talk about all this financial stuff theres a forum for it, or you can always make your own thread.

btw, im a year younger than you, probaly bigger than you and i wasnt aware $50 jeans, $30 shirts, and $75 shoes were “expensive” you guys act like im wearing versace and cavalli. give it a rest.

papoose sucks dude. no one listens to him outside of brooklyn anymore. he came during the whole hip-hop is dead whos going to be the next lyricist era and he got really really overrated. he tries to blend being street with being MENSA and it doesnt really work, kinda reminds me of the RZA with Big L. i didnt like him at first then he kinda grew on me then i stopped listening to him…last i heard of him was when he got sucker punched.

maybe you cant understand him because hes from atlanta and youre from new zealand, i understand him perfectly, as do most people…not like hes juvenile or something.

my comparison was perfect. you said his type of rapping killed hip-hop and i showed that people were rapping like clowns way before him and gee golly whiz hip hop is still here. people like his music, why do you care so much? what has he ever done to you personally? if you hear his song change the damn radio station. bunch of sour puss haters mad cause some kid is making music people like and getting paid bank to do it.

not everyone wants to hear lyricism all the time, some people just want to get loose, have fun, and party.

dude youre 21 years old in new zealand how big of an impact has hip hop really had on you, considering how long it took to go mainstream here i highly doubt its been there very long at all and you name yourself after tupac, roflmfao. tupac sucks and his obsessed fans are even worse. you can never call someone a wigger again dude, not when youre 21 and listen to tupac.

187

Mannn Soljah Boy is fucking garbage. There’s no rationalization you can make to convince me otherwise.

I have to agree though, Papoose is awful.

I miss Pimp C. :frowning:

188

While I’m at it, fuck Shawty Lo too.

189

shawty lo is nice. are you serious? that song Foolish is crazy dude. i like some of the stuff hes done with Gucci Mane and a couple others too.

Lawl. Yeah, a whole year makes all the difference. You can clearly buy a lot cheaper and help out with the heat at home but you don’t. So… yeah we disrespect you.

Last I checked… Digital Underground isn’t from NZ either. Wonder why I understand them? And they released more than just shite. I agree people want to just let loose and party, but I got no respect for someone who panders to the lowest denominator. If he made at least a few serious songs maybe I wouldn’t trash talk him so much.

FYI, I’ve been listening to 2Pac since I was a kid (pre 1996 in case you’re wondering), so… yeah. You point seems less valid.

And I can call you wigger as much as I want, because I don’t try to act “gangsta”. Wigger.

192

ill say it again, your name is makaveli, youre from new zealand. i rest my case.

193

Tupac is a gangsta, but Biggie is a fuckin loser. he made 2 piece of shit albums, how can anyone even compare him to tupac??

Juelz Santana is cool. I love his delivery and all of those dipset guys had their own orignal fuckin style. They didnt copy off no one. even camron would wear pink all the time to be original. even weezy and rick ross bit off their style a lil bit.

someone with good lyrics is JAE MILLZ. he goes harddd on a freestyle.

Yeah, you aren’t racist at all.

What case?

I’ve listened to 2Pac basically since he first started releasing albums. I don’t buy any of the new albums (with the exception of Better Dayz), and I don’t listen exclusively to 2Pac.

What does being from New Zealand have to do with anything? You listen to rap, you’re a white guy from the suburbs… should I rest my case?

Do you really think this kid knows who Beaker is???

197

anyone heard that weezy song that’s supposed to be on C3 called “pineapple sunkiss”? I got it from the “I can’t feel my face prequel” mixtape with juelz like a month ago and this song is hot as fuck.

Check out “do my thing” and “exquisite” off that same album.

Blasphemy! How could he not?! I grew up with the antics of Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker!

I think that Tupac was one talented motherfucker,and was well on his way to being a very good actor as well.

It wouldn’t have been long till he got an Oscar. I swear he got better with each movie. And Bishop is one bad muthaf–

For the retard(s) who don’t know who Bishop is, it’s one of the main characters from Juice.
