Lil Wayne and Wiz Khalifa

[iamstupid]

I've had about five dreams with Lil Wayne and two with Wiz Khalifa. I am a rapper (go figure), but I have my own style and a different image/subject matter. The dreams with Wayne seem to be positive. We're basically hanging out together with his entourage. Nothing really specific with them but one dream he tattooed me. On the other hand, the dreams with Wiz Khalifa seem to be negative but they are a lot more detailed. The first one he was living at my parents house and had a ton of stashed marijuana. Although, he kept it hidden, and did not share any with me. The second one we were both staying at a hotel with his entourage. We both didn't really have any money to do anything. But then later, he tells me he knocked out some guy and robbed him and got a lot of cash. He then bought a lot of McDonald's meals for him and his entourage. They were all separate individual meals in bags. Then he says he's going to buy some weed.

I am thinking that this dream may be about who you want to be with, which values do you want to have, whether you are willing to break the rules and do whatever to get the fame and the money and whatever else you want, or whether there are limits on what you would go along with. I think that may be part of it, but I am not sure what else, hopefully someone else can help you more.

I'm going to add to this, because I just had a very odd dream about another rapper called Mac Miller. Mac was a guest at my parent's house. He was with a girl I presume was his girlfriend. We were all watching TV together, my brother was with us too for some reason. Mac was acting really ditzy, like spilling chips and not caring about picking them up. I went up to my room, and I saw that my mom had laid out sleeping bags in my room for me and them to sleep in. Although my room was really messy, and it usually is not. Mac them came up to my room with a CD, and he said I want to play this for you. I told him I didn't have a CD player. He look puzzled, then I said lets listen to it in my car. Instead of going to my car we went into his with the girl. She gave me two devices. One was a cell phone like device and the other one looked like whiteout tape. We started driving, and then time and space starting distorting and exaggerating. I then realized what they gave me was some sort of new drug on the market . Mac said it was called a "Creation Bomb". I was upset they didn't tell me it was a drug before they gave it to me, but it was too late at that point. The drug seemed to have a effect in pulses. When we drove everything would look normal, but when we made a turn, space-time would slow down, and all the cars would vanish, and all the buildings/streets would look computer animated like a video game.

Could it be that you are worried in part about the negative aspects of the culture of the rap music scene, and worried that you might inadvertently or against your will get into some of the negative aspects of that culture? It might not be about the drugs per se, but about other stuff. Rap musicians and also other musicians have some bad rep. In part I think fame goes into people's heads and thus the more famous an entertainer is, the more likely they are to do stupid stuff. Then there is the peer pressure hen one hangs out with a crowd of people one would like to impress, and if one is not careful one may do stuff one would regret to impress others. And that's true in all kinds of settings not just the entertainment business, but this subculture does have a reputation for this kind of stuff even more so than others. I do not know how true that negative reputation is - you must know better than me - but even if it is not true, you have heard stuff like that, and maybe some part of your subconscious is worried about it.

Could it be that you are worried in part about the negative aspects of the culture of the rap music scene, and worried that you might inadvertently or against your will get into some of the negative aspects of that culture? Yeah, that's probably it. I am actually disgusted with the whole music scene of today's era, especially hip hop. I don't really want to be a part of it at this point. At the same time, I don't want to let them ruin my passion. So, I'm in a paradox so to speak. The sad thing is I don't really have anything else going for me at this point. Unless I solve that, I don't have much of a choice If I get a opportunity. I'm almost hoping I find a different path, but maybe that is the path. I dunno, but thanks for responding.

If you really want to find a new path, here is some advice I recently read in a book that made sense to me: Try to vary your routine. Take a different route to get wherever you are going. Read a section of the newspaper that you don't usually read. Talk to people you don't usually talk to. And when talking to people you know try to talk about subjects you would not usually talk about. Mention issues you have to people who you don't think will have an answer because they may surprise you and do. Ask people about their issues and stuff that interests them and listen carefully to what they say even if it would not usually interest you. And when doing all this stuff, pay attention and be open to opportunities even if they are not ones you would have usually considered, but ask yourself seriously whether you should consider them after all. Seek and you shall find. And it could be that the opportunities you find will not be along a different path after all, but maybe just looking at them in a new way will help.
