This woman is not an aspiring rap artist. Unless "aspiring rap artist" is a euphemism for "dope dealer". She and her "street-wise" husband are nothing but low level dope dealers and gang members looking to make an extra buck. I guess these days, white America thinks anybody who sells dope and has a mouth full of gold teeth is an "aspiring rap artist". Please!! America, wake up!!! I applaud this woman and her husband for their bravery and their heroism in saving the lives of their neighbors and even people they were admittedly enemies before Katrina, however, lets not sugar coat who they really are. I suppose the moral to the story is that even gang banging drug dealers can have compassion in the face of disaster, which is saying a lot, since the leaders of this country did so little for the victims of Katrina.
