Simplified, the Most Agitating List..




peace,

It's been a good minute since I submitted a new post. I've been receiving messages on myspace where people have requested me to continue blogging. I was kind of shocked to be honest. People read these days...on top of that..people read my perspectives? Anyways, I feel to an extent flattered that certain people have asked that I add to my blog. Well, with regards the other posts I have dropped, this one will be simplified in comparison. One thing you'll learn about my writing is..sometimes I can be technical with language, other times..like today.., it'll be simplified. I think when I utilize more of the english language on certain posts it's because of the seriousness of the topic or I'm really trying to get my point across effectively. Right now, this post is just random..so I won't be, I can already tell.
So, as you can see, the title of this post is, "Simplified, the Most Agitating List." Yeah, these are a list of things that I find extremely lame. No, I'm not about to cry about the world..or ask for pity. These are just things I see and think of at times when I'm out and about--or just have some down time for myself. So, in no particular order....

1. HipHop Music -- though I'm a skilled participant, I can barely stand this genre and its sub-genres any longer. Right now, I'm listening to "Black Dawn" with Bronze Nazareth--cool shit. He doesn't sound like anyone else and he got his own slang. Slang is a term I came up with for someone's actual verbal craft. This is the same thing I strive for as far as Pre-D (my musically enlightened peoplez...better known as PreDestiNation) goes. I really respect catz that have their OWN SOUND/SLANG. Sometimes new expression can be whack, but I'll hear it out. But I do think, if you got skills..plus ya new slang..you'll make some live music on the real. Skills are skills regardless. But yeah, alot of other participants are responsible for how I feel about this crap..it might even be YOU or someone you know that spits. I still enjoy cats who got and show skill., but I don't feel alot of these nickel and dime rappers, or these "talk" rappers, or these cupcakes who be rhymin about somethin insignificant like thing that happened "one day" in their lives. This excludes the radio bullshit. That music is strictly faghop. GROWN ass men making bird calls.., talking about what they have, what they drink, and how much they do it. I won't even address it.


2. Female wanna-be Gangbangers -- Anyone from the Midwest to the West Coast knows what I'm talking about. I posted this because I just saw a chick I knew from back in the day on myspace. She hit me up..and come to find out..she's a "blood" now. What is your purpose? She is on the net thuggin, her page is decked out with red bandanas., and the chick got the nerve to be rockin burgandy in almost every pic. I'm asking myself, do you really know what a blood is? To make matters worst, chick is from Cuba. What ARE YOU DOING YO? But yeah, I know she's not a gangbanger, and she's perpetrating (which WILL get you deaded).....but that whole hardcore female image shit is played out. No one is saying be a pushover, but to be on that tip constantly is really annoying..and at the end of the day...in that world, men put their hands on chicks..and we all know how that ends up most times. All of this...over what? The same ol..he say she say..he disrespected me...etc..etc. Sorry, wake up..people aint 16 no more, it's NOT WORTH IT. Yeah, so she got her friend's request denied. LAME.


3. Men who rock Skinny Jeans -- WTF. Yo, I'm not biased against any type of size of jeans on anyone to be honest. But if you're in front of me..and you look like a chick...you're doing too much..or really too less. Besides, that's a health hazard. Men's southern regions are not SUPPOSED to be compressed and balled up into some tighty whities or SKINNY JEANS. The problems that can arise from that are ridiculous. I can stand some slacks, dockers, cargos even from Old Navy or somethin, but skinny jeans on men? Let the females have their thing. That unisex ish is cool for like headbands, some hats, and some other ish obviously, but yo..when it looks like you stole your LITTLE SISTER'S jeans...that just isn't fly. You can't even put ya hand in your own pocket. No peeps, I don't go out hunting down men who wear skinny jeans, I just happen to be out and about..then bam...here comes some gumby lookin cat. Straightup, this "hipster" crap...whatever you wanna do.., trends are trends....do you...cool. But, that doesn't mean you got to get the skinniest jeans.., you can't even bend your knees..nada. ONE thing I'm happy about here is.., brothas in the hood....don't do that. Overall, LET IT BREATHE...nuff said.

4. Good hair vs Bad hair complex amongst Black people -- If this isn't one of the most annoying perspectives ever brought up in life. Ok, here's an example, you know that lame blacksploitation tv show called, "real chance of love?" Ok, well that one cat who has a part down the middle of his hair like Alice in Wonderland.., his name is Real I think. Unfortunately, alot of black chicks will claim, "well he has good hair." <--Wtf are you talking about? Because his hair is straighter than his sexuality means he has good hair? I'm confused. So I'm asking black chicks....WHO DETERMINED THE STANDARD FOR "GOOD" HAIR? Secondly, what determines or makes "good" hair? I could on for ages about this, but I'm just gonna ask the above questions first. Who awakened one day and said, "this is good hair, and this is bad hair." I'm so sick of hearing stuff like, "I got that good hair." And I'm sick of black chicks and nonblacks not comprehending the fact that NOT ALL BLACK WOMEN..LET ALONE PEOPLE..HAVE IDENTICAL HAIR. That's like saying we all look alike. I think this whole debate is idiocy. I'll await some answers, then I'll drop my 2 cents. Same thing with certain sisters and the FOUNDATION they will put on their faces. Ashamed?


5. Men with perms -- Why? Put it like this...regardless of how I feel about Barack Obama, I'm happy he does NOT have a perm.
