This is some sh*t I have been thinking about for the last week. Why is there such a lack of true, dependable people in the world? I can't count the number of muthaf*ckas who come to me hollering, "let me know when you got something poppin'!" What I can count is the number of these same muthaf*ckas who actually show up in support when you finally get something poppin'!!!
You are doing f*cking excellent in the world if you have five loyal folks in your life. More than likely four of those are family members that you can strong arm into supporting you but you go with it not wanting to have an empty house. You drag those five people around the world in intervals, thanking them incessantly. Your whole fan base soon knows their names. Before long though, all the b*tches who were yelling "let me know when you got something poppin'" want to know why you ain't give their sorry asses a shout out.
It's always the f*cks who do the least that want the most credit! They wanna stand in pictures with you, looking proud, like they birthed you. They wanna hand out business cards with your logo on it and their contact info, like they been hustling your sh*t longer than you have. They always wanna call you with other people on the phone like they have the inside track. They wanna take the stage with you when you are receiving your awards and accolades, like they were sweating and toiling with you, having sleepless nights pursuing your vision. I wonder if these phony sh*theads ever have a moment of guilt behind their shameless butt munching.
I just hope that I have never been thought of as the opportunistic piece of sh*t I am describing. I have tried to treat everyone with the consideration that I would want in return. I have tried never to take advantage of anyone. I have tried to be a nurturing and supportive friend to everyone I have referred to as such. I'm not perfect and so there are some who I still owe a great deal. When I can sufficiently repay their kindness and generosity, I shall. However, there will be more than a few muthaf*ckas who will be extremely bellicose when they find that "you gets nothing here!" Keep it moving b*tches, shop is closed and I'm NOT trippin'.
