Success
I want the money, the cars and the clothes, the hoes I suppose I just wanna be successful. Drake and Trey Songz made a song stating this. I mean I have the clothes and the "hoes" so does this make me halfway successful?!!!! Success to me means living good. No worries. My fam and friends well taken care of. Is that too much to ask for? But as Drake also said, I know that its coming I just hope that im alive for it.....
Enough With The Saggy Pants
"Pants on the ground...lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground". This was a song that went viral from an American Idol contestant by the name of Larry Plat. This song has so much value to it. Black males we need to stop wearing our pants off our butts. This is a negative image that was derived from prisons. And to be honest is that an image you would actually follow?
This style is terrible, especially for black males. Its bad enough we are not looked at as equal in this society. The pants hanging low trend only puts us in a deeper whole than we were before. We are already judged and characterized by just being young and black. Im 23, im still young, I understand there are styles but BLACK MEN please pull your pants up and have some respect for yourself and others!
