I love how these so called Twitter street guys love to diss De La Soul because they weren't pushing some type of gangster persona.
I'm from the era where we had variety.
NWA, De La Soul, Public Enemy would all tour together.
You make yourself look corny and anti Hip-Hop.

My dad retired at 59
I will not
He had a pension. I have a 401k I can barely fund.
He bought his house at 28.
I can't touch a down payment at 30.
He paid $90 a month for health insurance. I pay $430.
At dinner he told me I need to be smarter with money.
I nodded.
Didn't tell him his entire life was built on an economy that no longer exists.
Didn't tell him my generation is paying for his Social Security while ours gets gutted.
Didn't tell him the ladder he climbed got pulled up right after him.
Just passed the potatoes.
Make it make sense
