Carrying another man&#8217;s weed can be an internship if you go on to become a weed owner yourself. Good examples of this are Del The Funky Homosapian, we went from holding for his cousin Ice Cube to assembling his Heiroglyphics weed holding army. Similarly, Jay-Z held bags for Big Daddy Kane for a while before he built his Roc-A-Fella baggage handler network.<\/p>\n<p>In his own words, Cons confirms his weed carrier status:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;I&#8217;ve been involved in such big moments prolly except my own. I&#8217;ve been a part of the championship teams.&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That is by definition what a weed carrier does. No shame in that. He then continues:<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;How can I be a weed carrier when my cousin gave me a record deal?&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Nepotism and cronyism are the foundations of the Weed Carrier &#8211; it&#8217;s all about putting your boys on until they can carry their own weight. He then defends his ability as a rapper, which has never been questioned. While some weed carriers are sub-par rappers, many of them aren&#8217;t. The late Big L carried for Lord Finesse when he first started out, and that hardly hurt his verbal abilities, did it?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;I ain&#8217;t carry anybody&#8217;s weed!&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Actually carrying large quantities of smoke is not an official requirement to being a good sidekick. As Pete then points out, while paying dues with a crew, you may be called upon to get coffee or tea for the more senior members.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;How am I a weed carrier on a record with twelve thousand spins on radio? My first shot?&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Being featured on a song by your cousin&#8217;s group means that you have once again met the most basic of weed holding criteria, just as Q-Tip held weed for the Jungle Brothers on &#8216;Black Is Black.&#8217;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;Robbie&#8217;s an idiot.&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>An idiot, or the guy who&#8217;s held up a mirror to some of your finest achievements throughout your career?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;When someone devalues my twenty years by calling me a weed carrier? Put your money up right now!&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Once again, Consequence has been a part of two influential rap dynasties over two different generations. Who else can claim that honor?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;&#8221;He&#8217;s like a mushroom on World 8 in Mario.&#8221; Nah, duke &#8211; I&#8217;m the Dragon! Don&#8217;t get it fucked up.
