well, i guess he goes by "Bow Wow" now. but i was browsing thru the newest issue of "Dub" and i see him leaning against a 350. he says it was given to him as a birthday present. "it's like a toy" was how he described his car. "my dog sits in it more than i do, so its more like a toy for my dog".....wtf?? of course it had the 20'' chrome wheels...actually didnt look TOO bad on the car. but it was an auto.... . of course this was one car of his multiple car fleet that includes a Maserati, G series mercedes, i think he also had a 500sl, or maybe a 600s....i cant remember. oh well, i thought i'd share. kinda pissed me off how he kept refering to the Z as a toy.

 

if i had millions, the Z would be a "toy" in my book as well. I am getting sick of the whole "hiphop" scene though. The artists just seem like a bunch of pompous ****** who brag about what they own... and us being the undiscerning public, are funding their 26" "dubz" by buying their cds.

 

I dont understand how these artists plan on sustaining their lifestyles... it's just crazy. I'd like to see bow wow 5 years from now....I wonder if he'll be known as "bow" then? hmmmm

 

A) Hopefully we won't see him
B) If we do it will be like seeing what happened to MC Hammer on "Where are they now (chapter 11)"...

 

yea im with you there....i used to listen to hip hop a lot, but now its just gotten gay w/ all this mainstream ****. now IF i do listen to it its underground or old school....Jurassic 5, Run DMC, Nas, 2pac, Dilated Peoples. but the fact that he said its a toy for his dog....wtf??

 

Seriously, if i had that much money a Z would be a BIG toy. I find it kinda cool that in a fleet of all those "symbol status" cars he'd be seen with a mere Nissan.

Of course us enthusiasts see it for more than a Nissan but at least the mainstream culture is catching on. People realize that's to us it's more than another Nissan. It's a Z gawd dayam it and the car alone has it's own presence.
His "it's for my dog" remark is his way of downplaying the fact he's being featured with a 30k car. It's no lie that one of his other rides is probably the financial equivalent of a handful of Z's.

 

I don't mind if they have a Z as a toy as long as they respect it. Unlike one around here that belongs to the father of the Williams sisters, someone drove it over some train tracks and punctured a hole in the gas tank and they have just left it at the dealer for like a month and not picked it up yet, and it has some hideous rims and reflective stickers all over it and just filthy inside, don't believe me?

 

In five years he'll be giving blow jobs for beer money.

 

funniest thing i read all night.

Watch how the word hip hop is tossed around. These people are all fakes, true hip hop doesnt promote this. Read up on KRS or tribe.

 

Even Jay said it in the song "dirt off your shoulders" off of the black album... "no chrome on the wheels, i'm a baller for real"

 

My dad refers to his Z as his "toy", I dont see what's wrong with that.

 

"sucking **** for beer money"........a classic, i haven't heard that one in years. nice one, ZZ.

 

Ehh I wouldnt be too jealous of the things they "have".... when you watch cribs, most of that shlt is leased or rented for that day alone. They dont "own" much at all...

Im talkin rappers like bow wow and the other 1 or zero hit wonders. Some do it right, snoop, etc....

 

im not saying that there is something wrong with having a Z as a toy. its just the way it sounded in the article it was a car that he had it just for ***** and giggles or something. like someone bought him a bad birthday present and he kept it just to be nice he didnt really say anything good about it like "this is a fun car to drive" or "this car has good power"....he just said "its like a toy for my dog cause he sits in it more than i do"....thats bout it. i guess you'd have to read the article to see where im coming from. he talked up the maserati and 500sl as his sports cars.

 

I love my Z, it is my toy.
But the Z is Bow wow's DOG'S TOY. As if Z isn't worthy to be his toy.

These new Rappers are all posers. Can we think of something more creative than showing off all the money you have? (or all the money you PRETEND you have)

 

In my job, I've spent a lot of time around scum like Little Bow Wow. These posers have got to be some of the most despicable, ignorant, and shallow people I've ever met. The fact that some of these untalented ****** are major role models for wide-eyed young people makes me sick.

 

Just wait until the file-sharing services start to seriously disrupt their cash flow. They'll appreciate the their Z's then.

 

This thread is oozing with...

jealousy.

 

Don't sugar coat it, tell us how you really feel. hehe. I agree, even at my must knuckleheadest age, 18-19 I had more sense than most of these rap stars who are grown men. What really pisses me off is that MTV only shows this part of black lifestyle, which is a disservice to millions of middle class blacks and clouds the perspective of everyone else. Speaking of MTV ( off on a tangent) I get soooo tired of their socio/polical rants in between rap video's of women degrading themselves and drug and alchohol abuse, great example they are.

 

Jealousy is right. I don't listen to bow wow or any rap really except the occasional 2pac and J5. BUT, he has been making records for the past 5 years, and started when he was like 10 years old. If a guy can make mad bank when he's a 10 year old rapper (come on now people), I can't imagine him ever being low on cash.
