5 Rappers With Crimes Worse Than Cardi B

Some of y'all got real defensive when Cardi B revealed some of her old money-making schemes. Funny you all speak out against her, but I don't hear a peep about these other top charting artists.

The rap game is tough, a lot of people have a lot of stories. Some far worse than others. Most of the heat Cardi got for that incident was pretty excessive. Then I was so annoyed when people wanted to stretch it far enough to compare her to Bill Cosby. No, not even close. Don't you dare put his victim's in the same boat as these men who were only robbed?

If you ever actually listen to rap, and NOT JUST CARDI'S MUSIC THAT PLAYS ON THE RADIO then you probably weren't too bothered by the issue when it hit the news last week. Maybe even laughed at a meme or two.

It's funny because I can find you 30 songs in like two minutes that depict killing and robbing and assault on worse levels than Cardi ever reached. A lot of this heat for Cardi came from those people who only listen to rap music that is appropriate enough to play on the radio but don't ever pay attention to the other side of the rap industry.

Let's be clear here that all you people comparing Cardi's newest controversy to Bill Cosby are WAY out of whack. Cardi never raped these men, never even had intentions of sleeping with these men. She saw an opportunity and she took it.

Criminal as it was, she never raped or sexually assaulted anyone. So get out of here with that Bill Cosby comparison nonsense. Here are other rappers people refuse to recognize for their crimes that are way worse than Cardi.


1. Kodak Black

Armed robbery, kidnapping, child neglect, sexual assault...need I go on?

2. Xxxtentacion

No RIP here for this piece of work. Not only was his music trash, so was he. With multiple felony charges, some of the most notable are assault against his girlfriend, tampering with evidence, and witness harassment..

3. Gucci Mane

Charged with aggravated assault with deadly weapon and drug charges and a few other crimes he spent quite some time behind bars.

4. R. Kelly

Sexual assault and child pornography. Disgusting human being.

5. T.I.

Sent to federal prison for weapons charges.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
