Waka Flacka is Trying to Ruin Hip Hop, Actually

I finally have evidence! Waka Flacka is bad for you... at least, he's bad for your music.

This is a video that he has with an Oklahoma City artist named Privaledge. This cat seems to be sponsored by players on the Thunder or something; Kevin Durant, James Harden and two other easily forgettable players are in the studio with Waka and this other cat. The problem comes when Waka decides to give advice to the newer cat.

Yeah, Waka Flacka isn't exactly a Dr. Phil. And maybe I'd take advice from the guy about where to get braids or how to get a southern accent when you're from Philly but I refuse to ask his advice about anything musical! Never!

He drops knowledge with these few quotables: "Do 12, never do 16" telling his mentee to never do a complete conventional verse because the crowd doesn't want that (BUT WE DO, WAKA, BUT WE DO!) and "Lyricism is not working"... huh? Could have fooled me about that whole lyricism thing, Waka. Maybe you're right though... maybe I just want to hear you yell your name.

-_-

P.S. World Star Hip Hop is obviously back up. I'm on the wall about that news; this video is one of the reasons that I'm not ecstatic about it returning.
