(CelebNMusic247) Hip Hop‘s 15 Biggest Mistakes!
We countdown some of the biggest mistakes & lack of judgement calls in hip hop history.
15. Rick Ross Denying Parole Officer Accusations
Before Rick Ross was writing rhymes and creating street anthems, he was writing citations and patrolling the streets. When a 2009 Smoking Gun report emerged exposing Rozay’s past as a C.O, Ross quickly denied the allegations despite an overwhelming amount of evidence. Instead of burying the topic right away, Ross let it linger and he ultimately became a laughing-stock for that period of time. (Although he’s recovered nicely).
14. Nelly – Tip Drill
For most Americans their problems can be traced back to swiping their credit cards on multiple occasions,
but for Nelly it took just 1 infamous swipe to forever alter his career. In his controversial, yet entertaining 2004 X-rated “Tip Drill” video, Nelly took it upon himself to swipe his American Express (or was it a Visa?) down a stripper’s ass, which led to an uproar from females all across the country. Since 99% of Nelly’s fan base wears high heels, we don’t think it was wise of him to piss off damn near every female rights group imaginable. The swipe led to boycotts, corporate advertisers pulling ads in-which Nelly was featured on and more. Nelly’s career hasn’t been the same since.
13.Any Artist that Signs to Bad Boy Records
A sports franchise that screws up free agent signings, ruins young careers, never pays their employees, and has been irrelevant for the better part of a decade would be called the Los Angeles Clippers, but in the music industry, that unflattering description belongs to Bad Boy Records. Contrary to popular belief, Bad Boy isn’t cursed; it’s just run by an egomaniac that would rather showcase himself than his artists. Any artist that wants to be a star, and stay a star, and not have to worry about the executive producer tryna be all in the videos, all on the records, dancing, don’t go to Bad Boy Records, word to Suge Knight.
12. 50 Cent Black Balling Himself
After years of bullying his peers, criticizing and making a mockery of artists beneath him, 50 finds himself in a precarious position in which he’s struggling to produce any type of buzz for his free-falling music career. He burned a lot of bridges on his rise to the top and it’s coming back to haunt him. These days 50 releases a lot of music via his twitter page, but one has to ask, if he releases music and nobody hears it, did he really release music? On his quest to get rich or die trying, he essentially black-balled himself, and now fans are hoping he would stop trying to make music.
