i tell people all time current "black music" (lil wayne waka) sets music and people back its alarming how dumbed down music is now and how popular it is...its really sad. real music in my opinion like the foreign exchange , dwele , Robert glasper ect should be heard and loved by more people

Amen Brother Amen, Current music from Lil Boosie, Chief Keef, Drake, etc are fucking up music, it's just stupid how good real music gets overlook for crazy dumbed down shit is just disrespectful to the art of Hip-Hop/R&B. I get that music has to change with the times & reach a new generation but it still doesn't need to be horrible in the process.

Jay To add context me and the other woman prior to my wife was doing good. No issues or complaints. I felt like we was together just to be together. But when I saw my wife and heard her voice I knew she was the one. Funny thing was she was in a relationship at the time. I can’t explain it but when I looked at here I felt like I experienced her love before and it was worth trying again.
