Bow Wow Retires From Rap
Written by DJ Special Blend from Chicago on April 13, 2009
Bow Wow has announced his retirement from rap.
And he should retire.
The rapper formerly known as Lil Bow Wow has announce his retirement and that his current LP “New Jack City Pt 2” will be his final release.
And it should be his last record.
I’ve recently become a Bow Wow hater from time to time, but this is a good move if there’s anyone out there that cares.
Number one, he can give haters like me the finger as he retires at 22. My ass is more than 20 years his senior, and retirement ain’t even in my vocabulary.
Secondly, he was popular all those years because he was young and cute. Unfortunately, he’s not young and cute anymore. It’s good idea to take the money and the fame and run right now.
Real Talk NY: “This is my last album because for me, there’s no more that needs to be done on the music side, I’ve done everything,” Bow explained. “And the scary thing is I’m 22 years old and I’m young. I’m still a baby, so it’s kinda like on the music side, I’ve been doing it since five. That’s 17 years of non-stop music, music, music. There’s nothing more to accomplish that I haven’t seen yet…I feel like now it’s time to endure a new challenge…Close the chapter on the Bow Wow legacy…As far as albums, I’m good. Seven albums at 22, that’s crazy.”
Maybe he can come back reinvented if he chooses one day. He has that option. Whatever the case, a lay off is very smart at this point.
If you stil ask why… damn it, because he can.
