Rapper Nelly won cool points with his kids and the younger generation by sticking up for Soulja Boy while calling Ice T a “f*ckin’ geezer.” I totally agree with Nelly when he says Hip Hop is by the youth, for the youth.
So why is Nelly’s old ass still rapping? Why are LL Cool Jay and the old geezer, Jay Z still rapping? Now I’m hearing Queen Latifah (who’s pushing 40) is readying her rap album for a December release.
Whether they know it or not, these old rappers are fast becoming irrelevant. The kids are the main consumers of Hip Hop and these kids don’t want to hear their fathers and aunties rapping.
Step aside old geezers and give Hip Hop back to the youth.
