    Now go have a look at Chet Hanks (the spawn of Tim Hanks) many interviews in a Patois accent.

    I don’t even know how I feel about things like this either. On the one hand it’s pretty cringe, but on the other can you imagine growing up with Tom Hanks as your dad, it’s a tough act to follow and it must be hard to find yourself.

        Is that you making some kind of point?

        Nature and nurture I guess.

        My siblings and I couldn’t be more different and we all came from the same place. Like we differ in every metric you could conceive of.

      I don’t know if being known as a white rapper who is at the most generous interpretation doing cultural appropriation is really doing much of a follow-up to your dad.

      I mean I realize that Jaden Smith is a weirdo with no talent, but at least he tried doing what his dad did before everyone made it clear that he shouldn’t.

        Hey, I never said I agree with his choices. Just that I can imagine it being difficult to leave the shadow of your parents.

        Obligatory fuck Will Smith.
