Just What WE Need Ross!

Oh my, I will attempt to watch my words on this one...

Allhiphop.com reported in its News section that Carol City rapper Rick Ross will executive produce a new documentary named...hold your breath...M.I.Yayo. Guess what its about? The drug game in Miami, because that subject has NEVER been covered before on film, NEVER! HOW ORIGINAL! Read the story HERE.

This is just what we need to boost our violent, drug-infested notoriety. Like the youth of this community don't get enough in their heads (a la First 48, the freakin' newspapers, Channel 7) to talk about the dope game down here. It is becoming more apparent that SOME rappers from this area care about nothing more than to fatten their pockets talking about the SAME THINGS that are wrong with our community over and over. Children have lost mothers and fathers, young men and women have lost their lives over what will now be captured in a new attempt to tell the "truth" about what goes on "the other side of the bridge." How this is supposed to change the situation is beyond me, since its probably not the goal anyway.

So what dey do Ross? I know you didn't sign up to be a community activist, but MUST YOU add to the deteriorating national image? Do you HAVE TO add your film to the list of references for the youth to use as something to aspire to be? It's cool to want the truth to be told about your city, but goodness, there is no glory in that life at the end (which is usually death or new age slavery aka the prison system) so why is there a need to portray this unless that message is being reiterated? It's also great to expand your horizons on the producing tip, but the subject matter has been played time and time again...resulting in what exactly?

My questions may never be answered, and maybe the film will have a motive to it besides spotlighting more dope dealers from Dade. We shall see...
