hey sorry just saw this topic. but the thing is, no matter how much music may need him, he doesn't need the music. its become quite clear since his movie career has grown and his music career has declined that he is an actor/rapper, not a rapper/actor. acting comes first. it kind of pissed me off to see him promoting lost and found and talking about how he felt like he was the rapper lost in the actor, then a few months later see him promoting pursuit of happyness and pretty much downplaying the whole rap aspect at all, pretty much saying, yeah i played with that agian but now its back to the art of acting blah blah.
