Boosie Badazz Offers Tips and Mentoring to Budding Young Rap Artists
Recently, Louisiana native rapper Boosie Badazz was present at the 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards. During the event, he was asked to provide advice to other rappers on how to have a long-lasting career in the industry. Boosie’s guidance was simple and clear: possessing talent is essential, and survival is paramount.
“To maintain your longevity you can’t get killed,” he began. “So I would tell them to stay out them streets, don’t rap beef with dudes, and stay alive. As long as you got talent, as long as you stay alive it’s a chance. I wouldn’t tell ’em just keep making music and being ignorant and trying to be gangsters, you know. I would tell them try to stay alive and your talent’s gonna speak for itself. When you do right by people, everything’s gonna fall into place.” Boosie also added, “You just can’t cheat.”
Boosie emphasized the importance of authenticity and not taking shortcuts in one’s career. “I never rapped about people to get where I’m at,” he explained. “So I would tell them, you know, stay real.”
Boosie, with his fair amount of personal disputes in the past, is aptly suited to provide such counsel. His advice is based on his personal experiences and his comprehension of the possible consequences that can result from such scenarios.
In addition to sharing advice with young artists, Boosie has also been proactive in trying to make an impact on the younger generation. Last month, he reached out to Kamala Harris expressing his desire to meet and discuss gun violence. Boosie believes that young people are more likely to listen to his message because they look up to him.
Boosie’s advice for young rappers is simple yet profound: focus on your talent, stay alive, avoid unnecessary conflicts, and stay true to yourself. His words serve as a reminder that success in the industry is not just about making music, but also about making wise decisions and treating people right.

SweetCandy! reveals the truth behind new release “ISOLATED DISPOSITION”
SweetCandy! latest release of “ISOLATED DISPOSITION,” a single that doesn’t just talk but also confesses, opens up a very open space. The song was written right after a fight, and it has a lot of emotional baggage that most artists would be too scared to show. SweetCandy! doesn’t give up, it pushes all the way in.
“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” is how isolating it feels to be alone and not understood. But instead of blaming others, the story looks inward and reveals a deeper truth, being alone can often be a choice. The song gets to the point, shutting down only makes the emotional distance between us and others bigger.
There isn’t any effort to make things better or hide the pain, SweetCandy! talks openly about how hard it is to want to be understood while also keeping things that would help people understand you. A lot of people who hear it will know right away that it doesn’t make sense.
“ISOLATED DISPOSITION” seems like a turning point in the end. It shows that people are ready to be more responsible, grow, and be honest with each other in the future. SweetCandy! makes it clear that being open about your feelings isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s the way to be truly seen in a world where it can feel dangerous to do so.

Shweta Harve sings of love that stands strong like a Tree on “Have You Loved Like a Tree?”
Shweta Harve’s latest release, “Have You Loved Like a Tree?” gently prompts listeners to reflect on how we think about love today. She uses a tree as a metaphor to show that love is stable, patient, and unchanging, rather than short-lived or performative.
Harve takes listeners to a place where they can think about their own experiences and the emotional truths they share with others. At its most basic level, the song is about unconditional love, love that gives without expecting anything in return, protects without being seen, and is always there even when you don’t see it.
The lyrics say, “Just like a tree, I will never fold / I will only give, endure, and grow / I’ll hold you close, I’ll let you go,” which is the heart of the song. Harve paints love as something that endures through storms, distance, and silence, just as trees endure through changing seasons. That picture has a quiet power that stays with you long after the song is over.
