God bless that man. May God continue to guide you Dro. This was a good show. So many guys are afraid to stir away from the trap, because they feel they will loose their audience or stop being cool, and or looked at as lame. FALSE....Them same ppl don't know you forreal. Them same ppl wasn't there during your down fall and them drugs taking over your body, they didn't see your struggles. Love you 1st. When God shows you another path, take it. Go with what you feel. Change is always good. I take my hat off to Dro. 🙏🏾 Amen.

6:06 Young Dro should’ve mentioned himself…when it comes to him being a lyricist he really could’ve been right behind Lil Wayne (if he reached his full potential)
4:09 DrO still on drugs with them top 3 Dead or aLivE‼️😭
It' always Biggie❤
❤❤
No one can reasonably Fault someone for TELLING a mere story. Where it becomes Problematic is when there are Artists with a Pattern of putting out Music which teLLs the SAME SAD SACK STORY with aLL its miseries over and over again with No Hint of a RESOLUTION or PLAN as to how they’ll Uplift and Upbuild the community, AND the Artist is ENRICHING themselves and PROFITING from Music which is clearly Debased and Degrading.
❤🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥
❤
What's FDB?
🙏🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐💐💐💐😊
See Dro, click. ❤️
You gotta add a hip hop gospel artist Passar.. I’m so confused
Dr. 'MAL... HE DIDN'T THINK BACK THAT FAR ON THE RB SINGERS... BUUUTTT... LUTHER, WHITNEY, GLADYS.. 🤷🏾♀️
