Interestingly

Wait till the Universities start offering degree programs in "Urban Culture" with a mystifying Master's or Ph.D. on theses or disserations regarding "hip hop". It's as if it's the whole "Willie Lynch" papers all over again!!!

There was a time when some folks balked at me when I enjoyed my music genre. That's why I choose "Go Go" from D.C.--there is little imitation of that, yet... There was a time I would "my sayings", but now I see how it's cool to do that chit on movies, such as "Bringing Down The House"--which makes me wonder, what that the original name of the movie--or one that would make paying folks want to spend their money on it???

It will be a time when folks will say that people suffered under a racist regime whose ancestors were slaves have no culture--thus no validity for their trials... Maybe the "spin doctors" have found a way to emasculate our culture away from us... Maybe, this is the propaganda "they" need... And as the usual, we'll go hopping right along, then bitch and moan when chit go down as foul... Are we activists or reactivitist? Or are we just trying to deal?
