----------------------------------------- 1:42 pm
-----------------------------------------
CJ: he is black
ht: no.. he's not
CJ: his moms is from memphis
CJ: i mean pops
CJ: lol
rah: nahh
CJ: i think his moms is jewish tho thats why hes from canada
rah: nah nah people r saying he's not even 1/16th black
CJ: people
rah: he's like spanish and european
CJ: what people
rah: the people that I'm asking
CJ: haha psyche
rah: the media bloggers not the crackers who think every rapper is
black
CJ: tell those folks to read a book sometime
rah: nah he's not black
CJ: they are misinformed
rah: and he's saying nigga
CJ: he's a mutt
rah: he's not a descendent of the struggle
CJ: eh what does it matter anyway
CJ: sooo
CJ: and??
CJ: elaborate.
----------------------------------------- 1:47 pm
-----------------------------------------
CJ: if your point is that rap and hip hop music only belongs to blacks
and direct descendants of the slavery infested and civil rights
influenced ancestry, then a lot of us are shit outta luck
CJ: most of us can't even trace our lineage in the diaspora
CJ: and hip hop may belong to us somewhat, but we don't run it. nope.
not no more.
[AVAILABLE] Funny story, I got one, ask me.
----------------------------------------- 2:04 pm
-----------------------------------------
CJ: how did sosha get that! (>_>
rah: um no point is very simple if you are not a nigga you shall not use
that word I don't give a fuck if the bluemen were rappers
CJ: i thought we was talking about if drake was black or not but this is
something diff
rah: I really don't care if he's black I care if he's not black and
throwin that word around
CJ: uh huh
CJ: the word itself is a disgrace to be used anyhow. term of endearment
or otherwise. i don't think its justified in any sense.
rah: its not but its worse when the people who abuse it
invite others to do the same thing e.g. lil wayne
CJ: for argument's sake, it contestable to say that its gotten to a
point where that distinction is becoming not as recognized
rah: I honestly can't stand him
rah: that's not good
CJ: especially if that person not of color is trusted
rah: because until we all have the same opportunities
raht: there needs to be distinction
CJ: i agree.
rah: this girl I used to work with is russian said nigga I cut her off
early
CJ: smack her
raht: don't you do that
rah: and she whispered it
rah: so she knew
CJ: lol
CJ: that's unacceptable
rah: my thing is why isn't anyone saying anything anymore what happened
to the movement
CJ: but there are plenty of things not acceptable with our culture
today
CJ: that even nuisances like that hardly affect me
CJ: why?
CJ: plenty of reasons
rah: everything bothers me
rah: like what did we just give up
CJ: generations become more and more detached
CJ: its not about giving up
rah: obama being president erks my nerves everyday
CJ: its like, they don't know what being fought for
CJ: his achievement doesn't irk me, but everything that surrounds it and
threatens it does
rah: whaddya mean
----------------------------------------- 2:14 pm
-----------------------------------------
rah: we're not even gonna get into "achievement"
CJ: ok ok
CJ: we're not. -_-
CJ: i think its all about trans-generational sustainability
rah: I'm upset that
instead of focusing on shit that matters
michele is in the news for wearing sneakers
or obama had on a gray suit
like wtf is that
I guess
StreetEliteCJ: yeah, that's what i mean by when i'm irked by everything
that surrounds his presidency
because you know how that's going to be played off as later
if we can't agree on what his direction is, the least we can say is that
he is serious about it
but the media is downplaying his role and remaking his image into that
of a pop star
a US President should not be compared to a teen sensation
those things come and go. psychologically, you put someone in that
category, and thats what they become. some are counting on the young
people who put him where he is to get tired of him
rah: exactly
the mulatto aint doing shit for me
but they're really making it seem like he's a celebrity
CJ: that is exactly what they're doing
the guy is trying
rah: he should've known that was going to happen
CJ: but at the end of the day he ain't done nothing yet
rah: from the beginning nobody would listen to him
----------------------------------------- 2:24 pm
-----------------------------------------
rah: to busy screaming his name
: you're absolutely right
CJ: you inflate a balloon and it looks really fucking nice but its still
full of nothing
rana: he has done shit.
its been what 6 months
but we have 3 more yrs maybe he just needs time
I bet you when re-election rolls around
hell try to do everything he promised
CJ: he's definitely not complacent
rah: *hasn't done
CJ: and i'm not ungrateful
CJ: dude isn't lounging around on a ranch
CJ: if half the things he wants done doesn't get done, its because of
the legislatures dicking around in Washington
CJ: because they're so prone to being slow-paced and argumentative for
argument's sake until we're getting blown the fuck up on our own soil
CJ: because the truth is nobody really wants change.
CJ: a little change, but not huge change.
rah: he's not gonna change anything
its embedded in our system
he's not god
CJ: systematic change scares people who are used to something even if
its not good for them.
CJ: he's gonna try and that's probably all the record will show
CJ: like i said, transgenerational sustainiability
rah: hey better luck next time
CJ: there's no way one president can do all that shit
Rah: we just need to overthrow the government
start from scratch
CJ: other presidents have to continue his work
CJ: which means the American people need to actually follow politics
CJ: to elect someone who will continue the work
CJ: but we all have attention spans of godfish
rah: honestly it needs to start with local politics
CJ: *goldfish
CJ: local politics isn't as exciting
rah: its what affects us the most
if you really think about it
CJ: c'mon, this generation grew up on die hard
rah: oh stop it
rah: I have a long attention spoan
CJ: they're not going to be entertained by who will be the next alder
man Of course you do.
CJ: But individuality only goes so far in a democracy
CJ: The masses Rana
rah: true the masses are blinded
rah: they don't care
CJ: nope, they do not.
CJ: if we can't overthrow the gov't what do we do..
