While I agree it might not have been the best comment but I can understand the sentiment behind it. My work takes me into schools, some with shall we say, a large minority population. Its disturbing how many of these youths seem to think they can do well for themselves without an education and/or very little, to no effort in any way. Dreams of living it up while rapping, playing a sport or hanging on the corner slinging drugs are very prevelant. Working on their education or working in general sadly are not. I'm not racist and I'm not saying this is everyone's attitude in these schools I visit, but they are in significant numbers.

that kid is gonna be HUGE.

The reason this kid has the potential to be huge isn't because of his ability to rap. Its his creativity. A person who says "give me a phat beat" and can spit some rhymes is a dime a dozen. This kid shows creativity and some potential in coming up with his own beats as well as his own raps. Thats important because its cuts down on the amount of producing involved and thus cost. Even if you don't end up seeing this kid performing, I wouldn't doubt it if he ends up working in the recording industry as a producer, writer, composer, etc as he seems to have that kind of talent as well.
