Hip Hop: Cory Gunz MTV Reality Show “Son of a Gun” Trailer (April 3rd-9th)



It might just be coincidence but I think there is some awkward reason that both the "Like Father, Like Son: Dell and Stephen Curry" trailer was released in the same week "Son of Gun" trailer was released. Being that I am Hip Hop's Pee Wee Kirkland its only right that we bring light to two types of black fatherhood where fame, fortune and family legacy is at stake. One type is professional athletes which was written in the (NAME) blog right before this one. The other is Hip Hop artists who have become fathers and have children that are ready to make their own lanes. I think that this new generation of Hip Hop that has those relationships and family legacy will be interesting to watch. How will fathers like Peter Gunz, Rev Run, Ice Cube, Diddy and more use their fortune and fame to promote fatherhood?I don't come from either of those two type of relationships with my father but its not easy to feel like you have to fulfill what your father has done in his time and reach for more. My point is Cory Gunz is the first possible Hip Hop superstar to be a son of someone who had success in the Hip Hop game. Will he make it even though he's signed to Lil Wayne's Young Money, Cash Money records with labelmates Drake and Nicki Minaj? We will see, check out the trailer!
