frankly speaking

Luxury Rap - let’s be honest. Kanye and to a lesser extent, Jay-Z get a bad name from a lot of people for the genre of music they are involved in. They rap about everything to women, to cars to ridiculous vacations. Most people will never be able to experience what these two guys experience. These guys are aspirational rappers - Jay transformed from a realist (well, I guess he still is a realist). He’s  a guy who talked about what life was like selling dope, to a guy who now talks about decking out his bathroom with pieces of art worth millions.

Both of these guys never thought they would be where they are today. They really enjoy what they’re doing, and it shows up in everything they do, especially in their latest album ‘Watch the Throne”

The above video shows a little bit of what goes on behind the scenes in producing an aspirational form of art.
