How are you celebrating the holiday today? (8/11)

There's a holiday for everything nowadays. The glorification of the thug/gang/drug culture never ceases to amaze me. Hopefully they don't start giving hip-hop fans a day off of work for this one.

I've never entirely understood the differences between rap, hiphop, and R&B. And I have no desire to know. They all sound like shite.

Inviting 500 random black people to celebrate at Blue Bayou Water Park.

I’ll ignore the 13% of the rotten lettuce leaves in my salad that make the whole thing taste like shite and instead blame the dressing.

Aren't rappers just the next beatniks?
I mean, bad poetry to a beat is still just bad poetry.

I still remember the push to change the name from rap to ‘hip-hop’. and I actually liked some rap back then. Never got it, and still don’t. The term ‘hip-hop’ has never come out of my mouth.

Hip hop sounds like a children's show about kangaroos
