Do Rappers Even Retire?


Could you imagine saying at 22-years-old you feel the need to retire from something? Well, Bow Wow has announced that he is stepping away from the rap game to pursue other interests. I respect what he's accomplished at a young age. You know, he's grown as an artist going from Lil Bow Wow to just Bow Wow. He did the "best of both worlds" collaboration with Omarion. Apparently there isn't anything else for him to do after enjoying so much success as an artist with seven studio albums. I think it might have been the moment he did that "Marco Polo" trash with Soulja Boy that he may have realized it was time to retire. However, we all know that rappers (insert Too Short and Jay-Z to name a few) or entertainers in general don't really retire so I don't even know why they bother to say it. Oh, that's right for publicity reasons of course. He'll be back. In the meantime I guess we should all rush out and buy his new album since it will be his last (riiiiight).
