Their downtown has like 5 traffic lights but it’s right on the water. The streets there are super wide bc the original plans were for it to be a city.
What’s interestingly annoying about where I live now is that its design is from plans to originally be DC.
Williamsport is a rural town right on the Potomac river.
Dc ppl always be acting like they on their own island.

“Bitch aint from dc fr, her aunt got a big ass house in upper Marlboro like shit” 🤣🤣🤣 they be stingy af lol
The cities always represent the culture for the states. I always disliked the dissociation of the rest of the states outside the metropolitan areas
Both beltways have signs for Frederick md exits lol
I have never heard Fredericksburg mentioned without the Burg, so I was always confused ppl don’t know the difference lol
I always found it sad anytime I told ppl in the dmv or bmore that I’m from Frederick, and they always said “Virginia?” 😂
Look I don’t watch alot of stuff. 😂 I stick to my comfort films lol
Yikes… it looked like it might be okay.. I guess I won’t even waste my time lol

I put my draws on inside out this morning smh
I’m not surprised by Nicki’s tweet. The rich are always gonna choose money.
If DMX came out today, his music would just be instrumental if he didn’t record an edited version of his music 😂😂😂
So by highschool, understand and hearing the real lyrics was like a whole different song lol
I was a kid back then so I couldnt really understand rap as much bc in those days they actually made clean versions of songs, not just censoring words.
Biggie was a terrible person fr. He had no choice but to get famous. Cuz how you ugly af inside AND outside????
And a lot of them share the common themes of, either they were romantically involved with a peer or didn’t have the freedom/support their male peers had
And love & hiphop just exposes live how the industry preys on women. A lot of them have shared stories over the years of what happened after their hit song or debut album.
I feel like Da Brat deserved more, but she couldn’t be herself. But they made us like these female rappers over the yrs that they never had the intention of making successful
Missy was able to succeed without Timbaland, but I feel like her run started to slow when the industry tried to make her conform to pop culture. Conveniently around the time Timbaland did 🙃🤷🏾‍♂️
Biggie had Kim, Jay had Foxy and Amil, Busta had Rah, Ja had Vita, Wayne had Nicki, three 6 mafia had La chat, the fugees, trick and trina.
The conversation needs to happen about how female rap has relied on the endorsement of men all these years. Bc “sex sells”, mainstream rappers since the 90s always had to get a female rapper on their team or some kind of eye candy. Then they eventually faded away 🤷🏾‍♂️
Notice thru rap history, female rappers started out a lil more masc and aggressive. Then Salt n Pepa came a lil softer and gave some appeal to help with mainstream
Straight men never truly supported female rappers fr 🤷🏾‍♂️ only for their benefit. They show respect when it’s due, but female rappers success has always been tied to men’s standards
Hiphop will always be sexist. So these podcasts and convos I can’t take serious anymore when they complain about an industry they shaped
