The thug is a poser. He does some petty crime, glorifies it, exposes it as being wrongly ACCUSED, all the while he's trying to earn some sick street 'cred' with the youth. He's a PUNK in the purest form of the word. He's not expressing ANYTHANG that is even remotely individual or original in his whole persona. He looks, sounds, dresses, acts, blames, curses, acts disingenuinely shocked, and is self-centered just all the rest of the rap world. Every inch of this wannabe is orchestrated. What a man! And shame on the NHCBoE for pretending not to know.
