Too Old For Rap

   I am in my early forties and just had a birthday. How old is too old to rap listen to rap music. I've been drawn to the culture since I was a kid. As I have grown so has hiphop. It has evolved into a multi-million dollar industry. Where as it use to be all about your flow. But now it's fashion for a lot of folks. Some of the things I see now may seem new to others but it's not to me
   Just like Mobb Deep says in the quiet storm intro. I've seen it all and I've been through it all. Reminds me of the ole saying"There's nothing new under the sun".
   Throughout my twenties I chased life. Just about everything I wanted to do I had accomplished. As for as travel I really been some places. In my thirties I reap the benefits of all my hard work. My artistry was strongest when I was a teenager.My musical talents transitioned more towards making music than just writing rap after rap.
   Most folks don't understand new rap but I do. Quickly labeled mumble rap when really it's like consciously speaking to one's self and others. Gotta stay woke.
