What I don't think you are taking into consideration is that before they made it big, they were actually going through most of those things that they rap about but the difference is that now they have money....they don't go through the same issues that they used to and they shouldn't be taken seriously like they still do when we know that they live in a big mansion with doctors, lawyers and dentists as neighbors.
