The Music

What is Music? 

Hip Hop
Everyday I am introduced to new and different aspects of 21st century culture and lifestyle (it really helps with my degree) And I absolutely love it! One of the areas of urban culture in 2011 I am very interested in is the music genre of "hip hop". As one of the most eponymous music makers of every time - Tupac Shakur once said  All I'm trying to do is survive and make good out of the dirty, nasty, unbelievable lifestyle that they gave me. But really if we think about it who is they? 

My theory is that "they" are society! And who is society? Aren't we all society? Many questions have plagued my mind on this subject. Who's to blame for evil. I am not sure I quite believe in a God, I remember being very young and saying my prayers and being good and going to church on sunday's yet something terrible and horrific happened to me. Was I not a good boy mama? 
If there was/is a god then he is a very cruel one. 

Is society everyone else, excluding ourselves from the equation. If so then Society is mean. I am in this country very legally yet I still get sneered at in the street and the looks from the corners of peoples eyes. I've even been told to "fuck back to my country" by someone who wasn't even a stranger. 

Look at me! I am a terrible. I can't even start a small blog post without turning into America's next top waffle. Anywhom so back to hip hop. Hip Hop is such a.... Is  a wonderful.... I really think it.... I can't do this. I'm signing off for today
