Open Letter To Adrien "Raw Dog" Broner: If You Really Had a "Big Brother"

 
 


I’m alone on this topic, but I feel I make enough valid points that people understand because we’ve all had complicated, duplicitous friendships-we all have had experiences with loved ones who want us to succeed on very limited terms. Mr. Broner, I’m not writing this in judgment of your conduct because I was once young, dumb and destructive like you-however I wasn’t young in the digital age. Also, I wasn’t rich, or semi (sorry kid) famous and I certainly didn’t have someone of Floyd Mayweather's caliber advocating and kinda pulling for me. A lot of young brotha’s have nobody, we come from poor family structures and the few of us with talent (like you) end up not having the skills to step out of destructive patterns of behavior into “responsible” wealth. By then Homies become dependents, and parental figures end up brushing our hair as we say things on TV that make us look like the sexually irresponsible savages bigots make us out to be- no I get it, it’s all “WorldStar” right?. At some point realize your mimicking what you “think” your “idol” did to get rich (flushing 20 dollar bills)  and now all of a sudden you find yourself boning a couple of skanks on somebodies cellphone. Did Floyd, you know your idol tell you he’s been there, done that? did he point out that most brotha’s don’t really get to his level without his with sex tapes?.

Did he even bother to tell you before you leaked it that Ray J went back to the Chitlin circuit after going that route? That the whole purpose of the tape is useless if you’re not banging an heir of some sort?

His Daddy (Mayweather Sr.) doesn’t know you like that, and the old man had no problem saying you aren’t exactly his son-in fact most view you as a knock off from the waist up. Not between the ears. When Floyd was your age he probably didn’t have a manager that could shove him down the throat of programmers and force him into PPV in his mid-20’s- do you honestly think you are working as hard as he did?. I mean how many older people take a liking to a cheap imitation (of themselves) who won’t have to work as hard to get paid-how old were you when your big brother was seriously at risk of becoming another underpaid black defensive specialist who can’t draw flies?. Do you think he really wants your career to be easier than his? so you can do this?.  He created the climate that allows you to coon for WorldStarHipHop, but acting like your Big Brother for a couple of years don’t guarantee you’ll be around as long. Do you know how many “next Michael Jordan’s, Michael Jacksons and Oscar De La Hoya’s” have come along? Hell Floyd has beaten about 4 of them. Do you think annoying black males benefit from sextapes the way pretty white girls do? You do know porn is about women right?, that no man of any real substance shows his face in these things, while Kim Kardashian took off Ray J became one of Floyds male groupies-kinda like you. These are things a Big Brother says to you, have you even noticed that as the zero’s added up on Floyd’s checks  his conduct (before camera’s) mellowed? It’s called “Covert Corporate conduct” little brotha.

And he won’t tell you about it.

Floyd Mayweather is not your mentor, if he were this video wouldn’t be out there, in fact he didn’t get to be where he is for so long keeping future threats from destroying themselves. You may learn this too late, you may learn this when your lifestyle catches up to you and you’re an old 30 while he’s still a pristine 42 with no reason to step down. By then you’ll realize what I’m saying now, and you’ll be bitter but unable to do anything about it, if Bernard Hopkins can do what he’s doing your "Big Brother” (with “help” you can’t afford) is more than capable of pulling the trick.

Payton Manning gave his little brother everything he has between the ears even at his own expense; do you think Eli could get away with acting the way you act today? Even with 2 Super Bowl rings? Not a chance. In fact the function of a Big Brother is to keep you from making some of the mistakes he made, sort of like a father without the lingering guilt of wanting to make him proud. How can Floyd be a Big Brother when he’s not really far removed from the same kind of chick? only a lot smarter. The only thing he can teach you outside of the ring is how to go from skanks with lay away tattoo’s to swapping DNA with Ray J (The Godfather of SIMPIN) through a “dime piece” who sets you up to be robbed while you’re in the ring.

Ever think of Giving B-HOP a Call?

Adrien, the best thing you can do is seek out older men who have made the transition from the hood in more than just money, because there’s nothing more detrimental than the lingering taste for trash. Your Big Brother won’t tell you he’s seen cats like you come and go, it’s not his job to stop you from playin yourself, but he will have a job for you washing his cars if you waste your talent chasing hood rats. He will help you when you’re washed up and no longer a threat and you can be his next Ishe Smith (no offense) at the rate you’re going. You see Adrien 17 years is a long time bruh, longer than Hopkins at middleweight and Joe Louis at Heavyweight, being a champion right now may be fitting but being immortal is completely different- and it isn’t a birthright. But I’m sure Floyd won’t tell you that, that’s right! Because he isn’t your big brother- he loves you like he loves any other flunky, from a distance. If he has imported anything to you it would be to get your money, and you little brother are really not good at that since he is clearly the “Boxing Bank”. He knows the longer you’re “at large” you won’t wake up to the hard cold facts, he also knows as long as you remain too stupid to walk through the front door of a bank (as he did in 2007) but willing to go around the block (literally and figuratively) for a beastie you will ultimately get what you deserve.

Nothing.
