"I WAS HOMELESS... I HAD NO IDEA MY DAD WAS ON DRUGS..." METH TALKS GROWING UP AND BECOMING THE WU

[@chemistryrussell]

The fact that Meth admits using Cap and others' rhymes is a sign of his humility. That's respect! Always dug him, but this is more reason.

[@ThePremierGroupLLC]

@@dirtylaundrymedia Some of us did it by memorizing our favorite MCs songs on they albums. That play, pause learning lyrics. I would just say my name in place of the MC🤷🏾‍♂️😁. But that's how I learned cadence, flow, n how to breath on beats. Just never spit other Niggas rhyme for an audience. By the time I was rhyming in cyphers I had my own sh*t.... Cause if niggas WHERE I'M FROM CAUGHT YOU SPITTIN' UVA NIGGAS LYRICS... IT WAS OVER FOR YOU!!!

[@ThePremierGroupLLC]

Meth is my dude. He is definitely one of my top emcees. I know he will never remember this, but I ran into him one time at Virginia Beach, which just happens the be the same day that ODB, rest in paradise, got locked up for stealing shoes from a local Footlocker. He and the entire Wu walked right pass me and my boys on the board walk and gave us the universal head nod as they passed. Not only that, Killa Army stopped and hung out with us for a few minutes, just chopping it up. One of the best memories I have of ever meeting him and the crew. Keep doing your thing king.

This is the thing I love most about HipHop. It literally gave the youth a chance to change their circumstances as well as their families. Meth is a prime example of coming from rough beginnings and actually making something of himself. There are hundreds of stories like his. This is why HipHop must be protected at all cost. Peace!!!!

People are homeless for so many different reasons but, why do many leave piles of trash wherever they go? My family and I were having this discussion and we figure they are probably in such a low spot being in survival mode only so, they’re not thinking about keeping things neat or littering in their location. Years ago I worked with women trying to transition out of halfway houses. They had a history of struggling with poverty and addiction. As I spoke with them about their situations I noticed a pattern of multiple poor choices along their road in life and sometimes a sense of laziness or non-motivation to improve things and to just take the easy route at that moment every time 🤷🏽‍♂️ We probably need to reopen more housing for the mentally unstable as well. If we could keep even a small percentage of people on regular medication it’s more likely they’d could be productive members of society💕
