Plies came by to promote his new “Goon Affiliated” album in-stores May 25 and one of our listeners gets mad at him because he heard he was valedictorian in high school. Which brings forth the question: can you be a thug and a valedictorian or can these two not co-exist? Regardless, his song “She Got It Made” is my favorite right now!
Plies addresses Jamie Foxx’s allegations that he ran at his video shoot in LA, the haters, and how he keeps his private life under wraps. And yes, he was the homecoming king!
“I don’t believe none of those dudes.. for me the writing is on the wall. Look at the lies, x amount of beef that you know about in hip hop. What happened? Wasn’t no gunplay. Nobody got killed. I feel like if you ain’t ready to go to that point you shouldn’t talk about it.”

Nah, it’s not a bad thing to be smart, but it is a bad thing to be smart and pretend to be dumb as shit so you can market yourself to the masses. If this guy could’ve been a rocket scientist, then ok he’s smart, but look at how he acts, hell even look at the explanation he gave for his name. He pretends to be a total dumbfuck and THAT’S problem for my BUSS IT BAYBAY
To be honest I admire this man. You do not get that criteria that often book smart & street smart. The image you bring to the table I think your swag is outstanding and there is nothing wrong with that. And furthermore you could have not said it better “It is what it is.” Just keep up the good work & GOD bless you. My favorite is “She Got it Made”, much luv
i don’t got nothing against plies get ya money. deez niggas jumpin on this nigga back bout he ain’t a thug. i rather pretend 2 be a thug and make $20,000 a show than be a thug in the streets riskin my freedom and my life. u dumb niggas.
rap is 2 sell records and hip hop is about takin the art 2 the next level.
plies is a rapper not a hip hoper.
