music, song review, etymology, words, racism, american politics
ahh shit. i want to talk about something that bothers me
(CW : CW : CW)
!! CONTENT WARNING !!
raw stream
this is not aimed at anyone: nobody complained. thank you. and i love you all <3
last night i posted this mix on mastodon. just fer shits and fun and all y'know. shitposting like it's the 1990s.
it's 'my music': bytes are from my harddrive. my collection. mine. no bullshit --
so i guess what evokes me in such a manner that (at least after a few beers) my the hair stands up while I listen to it (the music)
i hope you enjoyed it. but i'm not at all offended if you didn't, or just like other types of music.
my taste is as broad as to anything. i simply really do like a lot of things in this beautiful life that has been given to us
so the music is sort of me embedded.
but not really in the political contexts that can be evoked.
why i'm so 'triggered'?
while listening to the mix I noticed that 'Nataani Means' uses the n-word a bit at the end of his hip-hop song.
And generally in hip-hop... ahh,,,, A friend of mine said: hip-hop is like 'war music' (and he's like a reggae dude from Africa)
anyway ...
there is some more 'polite' hip-hip which i very much do like in fact too. I'll post that shit in the future more. but ughhh.
why is this all so fucking sad? and wtf is going on there, in the USA? i do support EQUAL RIGHTS and SOCIALISM. it WORKS VERY WELL
(or rather as some people have put it here -- it makes such a country the 'least' failed in the world)
a funny way of putting it, that i like very much.
what that really means is that the goverment here is not (yet) completely corrupt and our own enemy.
So like we have a lot of these racist/equality/whatever issues over here also, and we are very active at SOLVING THE ISSUES. its like a lot of work.
making somebody see the light is possibly better than killing them.
an important thing to remember about these people, and any dangerous or idiotic group/tribe (or whatever 'prisoners' 'criminals') - ohhh hoy boy, labeling, is the society is really good at creating hate or what?
anyway -
they're the victims also ( it's pain and stupidity that causes hate and all that shit): but also another very real thing is that you can not really 'turn' everybody.
integration to society is a real problem that needs to be tackled at full force (and it's still difficult).
america just seems to throw everyone that doesnt have money to the curb. and america seems to be burning now.
should a dj skip that sweet song?
a sort of racism is is the reverse condition of a victim 'tribe' turning to violence, censorship and negativity against the imagined evil that does not really exist either
i agree that this is not the answer and true revolutionaries don't resort to violence. hate never turns anybody around. so the american societal 'model' is all bullshit to me, and you guys need to care about each other more.
but that's not actually what Nataani Means raps about. i think his song is a brilliant piece of modern hip-hop and my love of hip-hop does not die with american politics. i don't wanna let _anything_ go like this
i haven't read any mainstream news actively in YEARS so i'm like... personally shocked all the time by all this shit when it hits me in strange ways.
if you got this far, thank you for reading, have a very good timeofday(); and peace & love -b
