Comment: Yeah right , this is your last album. liar

Name: pachwi31
Comment: A retirement really it makes sense, because what else can he really talk about at this point in his life. In his young years his songs were about puppy love, now in his latter years he's boasting about what his clout and his possessions. He's hasn't been in trouble, He's had money since he was a child, he's too young too have experienced any really hard life experiences. So what else could he really talk about.

Name: MOTHERSHIP
Comment: Yeah, Bow Wow been in the game at least 10 years. He was what? 8, 9 when he started? Most of his music sold well, so he ain't starvin'. Maybe he feels it's time to move out and onward.

Name: GodsChild
Comment: One must garner certain benefits in order to consider your exodus an retirement. Last I checked most of these rappers don't have benefits. Lots of money, but no benefits. Go figure. Out of the mouthes of the ignorant come ignorant things.

Name: TAZBABY
Comment: It would have been so nice to say he is "retiring" to attend College to further his education.

Name: Bad_Kitty
Comment: Probably pulling a Jay-Z. He has the longest retirement out there, next to Michael Jordan.

Name: DCGG
Comment: Godschild and Tazbaby my sentiments exactly...at anyrate - I'd welcome his disappearance from the scene he irritates the shat outta me.

Name: letmein
Comment: CTFU @ DCGC

Name: Thunny
Comment: Godschild -- last time you checked? How on earth did you check on rappers and their benefits? Could it be that you do nothing but hate on rap so of course you have a sour outlook on this? So your words are prophetic -- out of the mouths of the ignorant (you) come ignorant things (your post). I don't mean to single you out but curb the hate if you're going to make hypocritical statements. My take on this story is of course he's trying to garner more attention and anticipation for the new album. The question is will it work? I would be he'd have a better career in Hollywood than in rap. Clearly the money is better in films.

Comment: People are sooooo judgemental here; I think it is good he is deciding to pursue other avenues of interest - at least this young brother has never been in the arms of the law and impregnating lots of women? If he has, it's really been downplayed?....good for you Bow Wow! Once again, we as black people are so quick to hang our own!!!!

Name: fuzzygoss
Comment: Boweezie is 19 years old and makes more than our dads. Lmao...do the damn thing Chad!

Name: huey
Comment: yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn,,,,errbody stfu...

Name: Thunny
Comment: That was deep, Huey - thanks for sharing.

Name: Angel
Comment: GodsChild - Benefits?!? Not everybody needs "benefits" if they've made millions and invested wisely. Do you really think he's concerned about his Social Security and Medicaid?!? Besides, he ain't retiring from making money, he's retiring from rapping to focus on movies.

Name: MsFresno
Comment: shakin my damn head

Name: oldsoul
Comment: What up MOTHER?!!! Just dropped in to get a small dose of hate - I like to keep a balance, ya know. This board is sad...muthaf*ckas grindin' it out in cubicles, mad at lil dude for being his Self. I would go off but I think Angel said it best. Negroes is a mess...

Name: Bertie
Comment: it may well be a stunt to get the girls to run out and buy his "last" album. but if not, whats left to accomplish in music anyway. He's sold hella records and he's only in his 20s. After you've conquered something you got to keep it moving to a new goal--so more power to him.

Name: Priceless
Comment: CTFU! wow he's lived a whole life by 19

Name: McNasty
Comment: Lies he tells, why can't they just rely on their so called talent and skills to sell a damn cd. This boy just did an interview and he said something like he was going to grow old with the rap game. Although I like him a helluva lot better now that he as experienced some things and has grown - their marketing ploys are played.

Name: bigheadbull2
Comment: Thanks McNasty I heard him say the same thing. You go boy do your thing.

Name: Gemami
Comment: Oldsoul... grindin' it out in cubicles... LMAO... you ain't never lied. I don't understand the negative comments... youngin is doing it... making millions and all people can find to complain about is benefits and getting an education... it's obvious that these people have such a distain for hip hop artists they'll find anything to complain about.

Name: Lovely
Comment: Rappers have benefits. They have real jobs with real paychecks. They work for the companies - Def Jam (or whoever they record for) and they have benefits just like you and me. You think if they go to the hospital they have to pay for it? No, they have health care, dental care, etc just like any other job. I don't know about retirement plans but I'm guessing that's where their accountants, financial planners and attorneys come in hand.

Name: Babygurl
Comment: Whatever! He's just trying to ride off that Jay-Z not-so-retired jive. I'm tired of all these PR lies in Hollywood.
