Music has impacted my life in many ways. I may not listen to it much, but is where I got my love for dance and the arts. Music has really inspired me in a way that no one can. It has made me believe in myself as a person and other people.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree some, but not all. Most parents do have this perception about teenagers and young people, but not all. Teenagers and young people are young, dumb, and broke and have no idea what life will be like. Some teens however know how life is and were raised to not grow up too fast. So the perception that adults have can be wrong, but also right based on the teenager or kid.

During the interview for Nipsey Hussel, he really surprised me when he separated himself from all other music artists and focued on what he really wanted to do with his life. He said he wanted to invest in all his money and said some very life related things. He talked about how he and other artists are different money wise.

My success in the future looks very promising. It is filled with a successful business and I made made smart choices in my investments so in the future, I am thriving and being able to support and help my family.

I disagree with the fact that teenagers are just young dumb, and broke because its not all teenagers. Most teenagers now have plans for themselves and although we're still learning everyday and may not know much, its wrong to group all teenagers as young dumb, and broke.

# data[].attributes.body
Nipsey Hussle is different from other artists because of his mindset. His priorities are different when it comes to money, unlike other artists he'd rather invest his money and support his community over buying shiny chains and cars.

# data[].attributes.body
My own success for me is being financially stable while still being able to have jobs that I enjoy doing, and that help the community in some way and not doing a certain job only because I need the money from it.

I agree , mainly because since some adults feel like they’ve been through more experiences and provide for their child they little us teenagers and children and do think were dumb and broke. We’re dumb to them because we’re not living in there shoes basically, because we’re not “old enough” to really know anything we’re “dumb”. However of course there going to think we’re broke especially because they have more money then most of us while some of us haven’t had our first job yet.

# data[].attributes.body
I hate makes nipsey so different from the other rappers is his realness and genuine attentions to do what he loves dispute anyone’s thought. While other rapper only care about the money, fame and hype.

My success for the future looks very bright. I’ll  extremely wealthy with no worries no pain just having fun and living life. I won’t  be financially I’m debt to anyone and have my own.

I Disagree because not all teens make bad choice or decision i get we teen makr bad decisions but that don't stop the fact that some of does bad decisions can give a solution to the problem of your decisions teen dont always give more thought when we do most stuff so that's a problem for us because not all teens see the bigget pic others follow a feeling others follow there mind teen make decisions based on there perspective of thing so that's why teen aren't Young, Dumb and broke

I agree on a certain level, because maybe some teenagers already found their passion about something and with their parents support behind there back, they can make it far in life.

I agree with what he saying but also some people go through different issues in their life

# data[].attributes.body
Nipsey is different from the other rappers is his priorities, he cares for about his life than fame. He wants to do the things he really want and be wise with money

# data[].attributes.body
music has an impact on me in multiple ways.the meaning behind the songs had an influence on the way I think and the way I act. I listen closely to the songs I play because the lyrics speaks the words I fail to say. Music has the potential to influence my emotions and help me feel like i'm not alone when going through things. it was always there for me when others weren't. it made me feel like it was always listening to me even though i'm the one hearing the lyrics. music has taught me so much that no human or life lesson would be able to teach.

I disagree that Khaled wrote "Young, Dumb & Broke" because he felt some adults have this perception about teenagers and young people. I believe that he wrote young dumb and broke to explain the true life of being young. when you are young you are inexperienced about the way of life because you were always supported or watched by officials and never had any true responsibilities, never being taught anything that would benefit you in the real life except social skills; we are young and dumb. we are also broke with the lack of aid and information upon the way of obtaining money we are left broke and uneducated about the ways we can get money. Khaled was unraveling the truth behind what teenagers and young adults are, some adults may have that perception on teens but there is a reason behind it. Khaled wrote this song to portray what we are, but those who view us label us as young dumb and broke not what we are truly seen as.

# data[].attributes.body
Nipsey is different from the other rappers because of his train of thought. nipsey lived and believed in the rapper lifestyle but didn't act like it. instead of being a stereotypical rapper that would spend all their fame on diamonds and jewels, he spends the money her receives and invest them, puts them into assets and real estate so that instead of buying flashy jewelry he is gaining money. he's different because of the way he acts he's humble about the money he has he's doesn't show it off or prioritize being seen as rich but instead prioritize being rich money and his family.

# data[].attributes.body
My success is just having jobs that I enjoy and have a passion in and being financially stable. Able to provide my family with the money I earned from assets while try to maintain having low liabilities.

Music has impacted my life to the point where everything I do, is music based or done with music. I eat while I listen to music, I watch music based movies, I do things that involve music. I fell in love with music at a young age.

I mostly agree, because all teens make bad decisions, we all are still learning, but some parents think can give almost little to no space because they think that so much.

# data[].attributes.body
The thing about Nipsey Hussle is that he doesn't need material things to show off, to fill a space in the void of his personality. He is the best without it, which is what makes him special is that he doesn't need things, just his intelligence.

My success is looks promising in the future because I started using computers from an early age and I know a lot about them, so I think I have a good head-start in computer science.

The difference between him and other artists is that he was passionate about making music not look other singers just wanting money

# data[].attributes.body
Im unsure, the reason why is because some teens are not like that. They actually have something plan for their future and they been saving money. But, most kids are young, dumb and broke.

# data[].attributes.body
What makes him different from other rappers is that he wants to invest his money in other things. He doesn't want to spend his money on shoes, chains and other stuff like that. He wants to give back to his people so he investing in diffferent things.

My success for my future is having my money right and a good paying job. I want my job to be something that I love and dream of doing.

One way music has impacted my life was by making me feel good. More specifically when I’m sad i can listen to my music and it will uplift me and make me happy again, and even when I’m already happy by listening to music it allows me to feel calm and keep that good energy.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with what Khalid said about the teens being “young, dumb, and broke”. I say this because in the video we see the teens just being teens, jumping over the fence, laughing and talking and hanging out, and their lives to figured out yet. We also see a point in the video where some people are labeled. This is exactly how it is in the real life and what grown ups think about us teens.

# data[].attributes.body
What i think makes nipsey different from other rappers is he is very smart and i can tell he has his priorities straight. I know this because based of the way he spoke about things people do to impress others and when he said “ you were born without it and you’re going to die without it” that shows he thinks differently because nowadays rappers are all about expensive cars, watches , chains etc.

# data[].attributes.body
My success in the future looks very independent and money making. I will become a vet , make my own money and go about things without waiting for someone else but instead taking those steps on my own. Even without the pressure and the strictness from my parents without them i still see myself thriving as a grown up parent free.

Music has impacted my life in many ways. In one way it has, is that whenever I'm too tired or not in the mood in the morning on my way to school I just play the kind of music that I know always makes me energized and it helps a ton.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm conflicted because I know a lot of adult have this perception about teenagers and young people. But I don't agree with this statement, just because some teenagers are "young, dumb, and broke" doesn't mean they're all like that.

# data[].attributes.body
Music have a huge impact on my life and is a huge part of my personality. The type of music I listen to have a impact on how I act and the type of person I am. When ever I'm tired or I put myself down I can just listen to my favorite music and I'm back at a 100%.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm conflict because sometimes teenagers often make the dumbest choice and sometimes they make the right one and the same goes for adults too. ( " You win some, you lose some.")

What makes Nipsey different from other music artists is that he doesn't care about showing off with flashy jewelry. He said that he cares more about making assets and not creating liabilities for himself.

Music has a big impact in my life. It helps me through stress, anxiety, when I felt alone, a hard time, or when I wasn't feeling myself etc... Music could help you in ways your friends or family can't. Music is part of who I am when it comes to my emotions. It has the potential to help me release my stress, my struggles and things that happen in my personal life. Music is like art you feel creative, and express yourself whether is by singing or dancing or just let the music flow through you. Behind every song made their is always inspiration singers use in order to make that song. Music is what makes me keep going and to not give up. Music is where I could feel free express myself without anybody judging me or doesn't understand me at all. If you don't know how to speak or loss of words music would help you understand without even speaking.

# data[].attributes.body
Music has been there for me when im going through different emotions. Music has helped me sleep, and feel a bit more relaxed when im stressed. Music has been there for me at my best too, making special moments better. Some songs have special meanings behind them and bring back memories. It has impacted my life a lot.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree, I don't think all teenagers young, dumb, and broke. For the "young" teenagers may be young, but act more mature than they actually look. Not all teenagers are also "dumb" even if some are less smarter than adults, there are some teenagers who spent a lot of time studying to get good grades and they are considered smart for their age. There are different situations for the "broke", some people have jobs, some people have rich families, maybe even some won the lottery.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with what Khalid said about the teens being “dumb, and broke”. I agree with us teens being young but I disagree him saying "teens being dumb and broke." I say this because yes we all have made mistakes including parents but that doesn't make us dumb neither the parents because nobody is perfect and it's ok to make mistakes the mature thing to do is understand your mistake and apologize and learn from it. Teens are still getting educated so if we make one dumb mistake or decision it doesn't automatically make you dumb, it makes you smart from understanding your mistakes and learning from it. Teens are not broke because even if we have school we could still get jobs and earn money. It doesn't matter how much money you have or how much you get as long as you have little money in your pocket and that you could afford food and water that is not called being broke it is called self-care. Some parents might think of it as a different point of view saying we don't do anything or we are just lazy and then say how hard they work but in reality we are trying our best and it's ok to struggle and fall some times but you will find balance and pick yourself up again. Giving up is NOT an option!!!!

# data[].attributes.body
What makes Nipsey Hussle different from other music artists are how he is mature and could get his priority straight and how mature he could be. Other rappers want money, cars, and maybe even drugs but Nipsey wants to so what he loves and continue to do what he loves. All he wants to do is peruse his dream on rapping/singing. He has an amazing mindset which makes him stay positive and he is not show off unlike other wrappers. Nipsey Hussle is just living his best life to the fullest.

# data[].attributes.body
My successful life in the future would promising and very happy. I think this is what it's like in my future because of how hard I push myself, and tell myself to keep going because I know it's worth it in the end. I really want to become a pediatric nurse. I love taking care of kids and for the kids I take/took care off really likes me back and I hate seeing children getting sick or hurt and I really love seeing them feel so much better. Behind pain there is success. Just live your life to the fullest, work hard, push yourself but not to hard to the fullest and most importantly NEVER give up because everything happens for a reason. If you make a mistake leave it in the past and have a healthy mindset. I learned that it's ok to not be perfect and it's ok to make mistakes because it's all trial and error. I know that WE got this!!!

# data[].attributes.body
Nipsey Hussle is different from other rappers because he chooses to think wisely about how he uses his money. He would rather buy his mom a house than some diamond or gold accessories to make himself look cool. He invests his money into his priorities his needs and ignores the wants.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like music has impacted my life in a big way because when you truly connect to a song you can express yourself through it. I personally enjoy the way music makes me want to get up and dance, its like disconnecting yourself from the real world which is a nice thing. I personally feel like music is my main way to bond with everyone in my family even if its goofing around with them, its deeply rooted in my childhood up till now.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like most adults do, and I think that's why they tend to push us at this age to open our interests and aim for the better rather than the minimum because they don't want us to live their views on us which would be young dumb and broke. In addition to this, it can also be the reason why when some kids say what they want to pursue and adults don't think its going to be a good path they will tend to just put a smile instead of elaborating on the idea.

# data[].attributes.body
In Nipsey Hussles interview I was surprised on how he can relate his pieces to everyday things and educate others on how brands and other things like that aren't everything. But instead project the insecurity in ones self as a person. I feel like that part was the one that surprised me the most because nowadays all artists care about is money and other things, But nipesy was just the complete opposite and till this day still stay by his word and humbled.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like success in the future to me would be getting into an Ivy league school. I myself dont know what I plan to pursue but one thing is for sure is that I want to experience new things so I can pin point that aspect of my future. But for sure being happy wherever I go is all that matters at the end of the day, Its the quality of life not the Quantity, even if it means others think I'm weird.

I agree with Khalid's statement, yet it doesn't apply to all adults or parents, problem is adults never let young people grow up to make mistakes they usually pressure them at a young age until their head blows up and they become anti social, thinking about life struggles, thinking about life at 35 when they are 18 and have many years to live their life. Some young people have mature quickly and enter the adult life quick that can be just the way they are or how they were raised, and some young people start later on in life and start to mature and there is nothing wrong with that as long as you allow yourself to make those mistakes and then realize BY YOURSELF that you were dumb and broke but at least you lived you young years to the fullest and now it is time to make some moves on how you want your life to be like, so some adults should let the young people go through the cycle of knowing your mistakes.

# data[].attributes.body
What really surprised me other than Nipsey's message was the interviewer's reaction, you know based off that little reaction it shows you how the young people are brainwashed to think that these jewelry is cool and these flashy cars as well, all of which are liabilities and basically like advertisments to put money in the pockets of a person who is educated to how money works just from the fact that they are selling the most trendy items, sport cars and jewelry. Most young people are not educated in schools when it comes to financial important facts needed, and just from the interviewer reaction when he heard Nipsey say that he wanted to invest in real estate, it just shows you that it has no become a rare thing to hear young people who finally taste money first come up with "I wanna invest in real estate!" because that isn't how it is. Now a days the first thing that comes up in their head is "I can really buy a fresh out of the factory Bentley!!"

# data[].attributes.body
My success is living all my life knowing that I didn't take advantage of money. If I am blessed with a large net worth I will use it for my family and for my country of Yemen of which is struggling financially yet I don't know if it will go good if I reach success. If I have children I want to humble them and always teach them what I learned through my mistakes, you see knowledge lasts, shoes, clothing, and fancy cars don't. I want to humble them by my first move...not buying a mansion I'm buying a comfortable family home to live in, I will stick with a $20,000 - $35,000 car, I will buy other properties yet I will never tell my kids about my wealth until they work hard as if I am depending on them in order for me to pay my bills when really...I am making 7 digits so in the end when they get a job and work hard as if it was all the had, I will reveal to them my net worth if I am blessed to have that. That is what I call "MY AMERICAN DREAM".
