Now granted that was back in the early to mid 90's but a lot of people grew up listening to that stuff, really believing that's what they had to do to make money. I'm glad my parents help send my ass to college. I never confused entertainment with life.

I am 5'6 and 150lbs, prison is not for me. I'd be passed around for cigarettes on the first day.
And that's the key. Parents need to start handing their kids pencils before basketballs and lil wayne albums.
