When is he going to make a song about cars, bitches and getting drunk already? 
I mean, he's a rapper for God's sake..
... GTFO nao. Seriously.
Edit: Heres a history lesson.
Back in the late 70's, early 80's, a form of music called rap came about. It involved people not singing, but reading the lyrics in a sort way while a sampled beat from a song played. People would read these words in rhythm to beat, thus rap, or hip-hop was born. One of the first signed-to-a-label rap groups was the Sugarhill Gang, who's well known for there hit, Rappers Delight.
Now, at the time, rapping wasn't about getting hoes, drugs and having tons of bling and all that !@#$%. It was about important things, like how the streets were full of crime, bad people and all that jazz(See, The Message, Grand Master Flash). Keep in mind, there were songs and artists like that later, but not just yet.
So, now we have artists like MC Hammer, Snoop Dog, 50 cent, and the late Tupac(May he rest in peace). This is were rap took a turn for the worst, in a way. Due to gangster rappers like 50 and Snoop, rap took an unfortunate turn for the worst were they felt neccesary to rap about prostitutes, sex, drugs and making alot of money.
Later, we have rappers like Lil Jon, Birdman, Lil Wayne, ect... making terrible, terrible rap. They rapped about what you think is rap, the hoes, drugs and getting drunk. They cursed in excess, mainly Lil Jon, were almost every line in the song had at least 1 bad word in it. Though some of them were catchy, hearing the same old topics being rapped about got old fast. It was also degrating to women and black people, projecting a bad image and influencing young children, both black and white, to growing up and living a life of crime and stuff.
Thankfully, with rappers like Talib Kweli, Kanye West and Common, we were provided with rap about important political issues. This is rap now, were hopefully we can get it back on track. Having more good rap than bad.
Phew... Hope this helps.
