Chapter 411 (1/2)
”Bragging about Dad's history of selling clothes is earlier than you. In 1991, he opened a fashion brand clothing store named” Sean John ”in Harlem district. The store is very small and the business is not good. In addition to the record producer, he is also a well-known party DJ and undertaker in Harlem district. If he hadn't been beaten down in the street by your ”muffler” and retaliated with little Lori, his development would have been more smooth. ”
”A few days ago, this guy transformed a trendy brand store into a suit shop. He said that he wanted to make suits suitable for black people that could be bought by the poor and outsource the manufacturing to Honduras! I said, ”it's just a replica of your path. Ha ha.”
On the bus to Tribeca, NAS chattered and boasted, ”you should play with aplus, too. My chaopai store will open in Queens right away. Will you come and help me?”
Selling fashion brand clothes is a sideline business of all American stars. When they are popular, they will not lose money. However, it is hard to say the development after that. Many of them end up in dismay. However, when it is popular, it is also a normal choice to use this business to make quick money for fans.
”It depends, NAS. I'm sure I'll come, but I don't have time on the opening day.”
Song Ya replied that he felt something was wrong with NAS today, ”do you have anything inconvenient to say directly?” Lazy to guess with him, he simply asked.
”Biggie, rapper, who's got the bullet for the bragging dad, is famous on the streets of Brooklyn and Harlem, and he's going to flatter him.” ”I don't know why 2pac from the West Coast came to New York to raise the price with him,” NAS said. ”The people on death row records seem to ignore me.”
”2pac said he knew biggie very early, or homie? Finally, biggie said, ”peace and love.”
It seems that NAS is on guard against the unstable status of New York's rap leader. In 1993, everyone saw that it was a good opportunity for New York's rap singers. Llcoolj, rakim and Kane's father, several elders, Dashan, were all angry. For the time being, NAS was the only New York King willing to be promoted by the media. He was very worried that biggie would be pushed out to compete with him by the East and west coasts.
Sognette is a real bandit, so is his boasting father. NAS is only a half truer who came from a musical family and then wandered around the streets. He has no ability to stop this trend. Song Ya doesn't want to help in. In fact, he doesn't have the ability to get involved. Of course, the outside world does not think so. This misunderstanding and ”myth” bring him great convenience. He does not want to pierce his double headed snake appearance.
”They're always ignoring me.” NAS was upset. ”Do you think it would work if I took the initiative to start beef with ACE Cooper?”
”I can't give you advice. Ace Cooper is older and more popular than 2pac. If you start a war, will people help you? ” Song Ya asked.
”He's the only one in rapper on the west coast who has nothing to do with death row records.” This is what NAS was thinking about.
”Ha ha.” Song Ya laughs. NAS knows a lot about New York, but the West Coast doesn't know much about it. ”You don't understand that. Ace Cooper is also working with sugnette. They've long been engaged in gang reconciliation activities in Los Angeles and win-win results.”
“Fxxk！”
NAS scolded, ”how come a death row record pops up on the west coast?” He is very puzzled. At present, his potential beef targets are only 2pac, Derry and escubar, but all of them are closely related to sugenet.
”It's mainly due to Derry, a talented producer and an old member of NWA. He has a lot of connections in hip-hop circles on the west coast. Sugenet has found the treasure.” Song Ya said that maybe when he accepted Derry and Snoopy dog's defection, all the benefits would be his own? However, who could have known that the famous big e would have been so counselled at that time.
People always want to get more. NAS has established its position through the first llmatic, and is expected to become the king of rap on the east coast during the downturn. Naturally, he began to think about how to firmly grasp this opportunity.
It's a pity that the gangster rap circle doesn't rely entirely on music. He can't fight against sugenet or boast about his father, because he doesn't dare to develop to the last part of shooting with those people. Naturally, he can't win the attention page that the bloodthirsty bottom audience likes most.
From this point of view, if the former little Lori could really occupy the position of the king of rap in Chicago, and Gd had no bad luck in 1992 because of shooting a little boy, he would be entitled to fight against such people as sugnette and boastful father.
Unfortunately, the name of Chicago's king of rap has to be his own, and after holding the title, he doesn't want to go back and pester with the real bandits on the street, so naturally, he can't make the most of everything.
”Don't think about it. If you sign on Sony Columbia now, this kind of company will not let you get into trouble. If you enjoy the benefits of big company packaging, don't covet those street names.” He advised NAS, ”didn't someone name you a street poet?”? Let's go that way. ””Gangster rappers with no street reputation are worthless.” NAS's fierce face is full of reluctance.
Song Ya felt that he would not give up. The life of a ”hero” on the street was a bit like a besieged city. People inside tried everything to get out of it, while those outside tried to come in enviously.
The car stopped in the familiar parking lot. He got down with NAS and took the elevator to the top floor.
“APLUS！”
The flamboyant Maria Kelly stood at the door to greet the party guests. Seeing him, she ignored the NAS beside her. ”Just in time, you come here and have something to tell you.”
”In such a hurry?”
”Last time you came to New York, you owed it!”
Taking advantage of the small number of guests, she directly took her to the small room to talk about things. After a random chat, the two talents appeared in different places of the party.
”Walter.”
Song Ya finds a lonely Walter in the corner. ”How are things? What are you up to? ”
”Miss Kelly's new specialty.”
Walter was in a good mood today. ”It's going to be an epoch-making album.” He said.
”I know. I've heard those songs.” Song Yabian chatted with him while observing the party. Most of the guests were from Sony Columbia Records. ”What about Roberto and David?”
