Baby Got Back... And A Rapper Got Jacked

At first glance, this is not a subject I would have chosen to blog about, but I would like to address the situation that occurred this week with “self-proclaimed groupie” Kat Stacks and rapper Soulja Boy. Apparently, Kat took some incriminating video in Soulja Boy’s hotel room while he was in the shower, which showed lines of cocaine. She also had a lot to say about how the coke was affecting his sexual performance, and how he was a huge “cokehead”. This whole situation is obviously dramatic for those involved or directly affected, but many others in the hip-hop community have taken it upon themselves to address the situation and Kat Stacks in particular.

I definitely don’t think what Kat Stacks did was cool, but I find it funny that all these rappers are jumping to Soulja Boy’s defense, and posting anti-Kat-Stacks messages on twitter. In my opinion, you boys are getting exactly what you asked for. All I ever hear on the radio is how some rapper needs a girl with a big ass and a cute face, and how all she has to do is shake it on the dance floor in order for him to like her. This attitude towards women seems to have transcended hip-hop in more recent years, and become the dominant attitude for men in popular culture.

I don’t really want to get into all the details we could analyze as to why this is, I just want to say look at the monsters y’all have created! It is a widely published and accepted scientific fact that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, and apparently choosing a mate or sexual partner solely based on the size of their ass has some pretty hefty repercussions.

I also find it extremely entertaining and funny that Fabolous chose to speak out with some of the harshest remarks against Soulja Boy, because Soulja Boy allowed Kat Stacks to be in his room alone. Fab called it “Stupid Boy Swag” after one of Soulja Boy’s recent songs “Pretty Boy Swag”. Well, Fab should know all about it, since I seem to recall an incident back in 2003 on the Roc The Mic Tour (which I did promotions on) where everyone, and I do mean everyone, that was working on the tour was laughing at Fab because he was robbed for $10,000 by a stripper who he let into his room, had sex with, and apparently fell asleep on. Soon as he closed his eyes, girlfriend jacked him for everything he had and bounced. Don’t get me wrong I like Fab, but come on. That is obviously the teapot calling the kettle black.

Be careful what you wish for guys, because there is power in the words you speak, and the subjects you choose to rap about can easily become themes in your life. So, if you want to make these songs glorifying groupies and their behavior in the club, don’t be mad when one of them catches you off guard and puts you on blast or even worse, sets you up. And if what you want is a good woman who has some class to go with her ass, maybe you should make some songs praising women for being intelligent and worthy of respect as well as being sexy. I’m just sayin……….
