or listen to this one it's about a relationship i guess and also social issues and a feeling of generalised alienation which you should be able to connect with

the "suck my dick" preconception



he's looking back on his exploits when he used to hang out with bloods in the 90s and trying to communicate some of the attitude he used to hold back then, the flat tone conveying the air of machismo he'd try to project, and the phrase suck my dick is not a fucking imperative lol. this is like high school english shit. given the wafflingly meaningless crap you manage to listen to you'd think you'd try to approach it with an attitude at least partly open to the notion of storytelling but lol no

oh it's deliberate. i just thought it was incidentally bad

now let me record a song in the persona of my 90s self when i used to hang with the gamerz. i'll talk about ps2 video games and crack my voice a little but it will be authentic.



i'm sure the big book of troop hate Philosophy you wrote is already a full + complete account of what a dork you were as a kid

killer mike owns

quoting from NMD for the exiled people

Is there someone currently out there who does "thinking man's" hip hop? I know that sounds shit, I'm just looking for stuff that's neither bling, gangsta, or cute. Rap about Syria and reference literature. eg



I'm with you goon sire! I like my hip hops how I like my milk-white and fresh! You may want to check out Macklemore or, if you're feeling a bit more edgy, Immortal Technique (he's a minority, but not too dark skinned so you shouldn't feel too scared).

edit-forgot Professor Elemental. you can tell he's a thinking man, "Professor" is right in his name!



Have you considered putting on some J Dilla and a TED Talk on at the same time?

the fact that you wrote an entire book about how you don't like the bad troops and referred to it as philosophy and now refuse to post it out of shame is like steampunk wedding photos x1000
