I wish I knew how to add music to this post. Due to my unfamiliarity with this feature imagine hearing Rakim "Guess whose Back". It has been several months since I've released my fury, a new year has passed and my Giants have made it to the Divisional Playoffs. Once again I have been sickened by rap music. Some how my remote found BET this morning. The show was 106 and Park. The new joint of the day was "Crank Dat Batman" by Pop it off boyz. Not only was the song a replica of Souja Boy's "Superman", Unk's "walk it out", and some other popular southern hits the dance looks exactly like walk it out. You might say where is the story? Well, the unoriginality here is ridiculous(as in horrible), the lyrics don't exist, the video looks like they shot it themselves. I have so many issues here I can't even remember where I was going with this, but i view this video as an example of the brain washing that continues to hinder the cognitive development of our young people. Why do we listen and buy this crap. It's not music. You can't really dance to it and the lyrics make no sense. These kids are trying to make money in a positive way, but at what cost? I am officially disgusted with the music industry, namely all record labels, studios, radio stations, fans, and rappers who love to hear dumb shit for the love of money. The first thing I thought of was I am ashamed that people who don't know anything about black people see these videos and laugh. They think this is what we are all like. It's not funny. It makes me wanna hurt somebody because it doesn't seem like it will end. Just like many genre's before it maybe rap will fall off hard enough in the near future where other styles will prevail. God Bless America and Vote Obama (Chuck the deuce)
