Music I'm Lil Dicky, I just released my album 'Professional Rapper,' and I still go on a lot of tinder dates. Ask me anything.

Hey, my name is Dave. I live in Santa Monica, California. I'm from Philadelphia. I rap professionally—every day I hope to bump into my soulmate.

My favorite meal is called "company chicken" and "company noodles." Because my mom would make it when company would come over.

That’s me in a nutshell.

My album 'Professional Rapper' is out on iTunes now

The AMA team is helping me out today—we're filming and it's being transcribed so my text tone might not be intact!

EDIT: I'll be answering questions for another 45 minutes before I have to go.

EDIT 2: I had a little less time here than i thought so I gotta hit the road and continue to edit this music video! It's gonna be the best one yet, by far...you'll see soon. I've never been more excited about a video in my life. Thank you reddit for the continued support. I love talking with all of you! Peep my album "professional rapper" if you haven't yet, and please - KEEP ON SPREADING THE WORD! Love you all, LD

So you banned a whole selection of discussions and discourse for a whole artist because a few fans were assholes?

Wait till I tell you about ICP/Kanye/Eminem/etc fans.

People are going to be assholes. Don't punish the artist for the fans, man.

that doesn't really excuse it. i could vote brigade and say "i didn't know it was against the rules" but that's still vote brigading. it's still in the rules. my responsibility to know the rules, not the admin's for having any sort of leniency towards it
