STATE OF THE ARTS.
Photo taken by and from Vash with LUV
Labor day was yesterday.
Does that mean I can't wear white anymore? Even on the Fresh Coast???
F*%# that. I make my own rules.
One thing about rules. I believe rules are made to be broken by those who know how to effectively break them. Its like something you have to earn.
Not sure too much is earned these days. I'm mean today, you can pretty much skip steps and instantly thrust yourself to internet stardom in with the quickness. And folks who've gotten that 15 minutes of fame have been hanging on to it for 20, 25 minutes. Like, whoever talks the loudest and fastest can stay. Not saying that I'm even mad at all of it. I mean, where else are you gonna find a hollywood daughter turned pornstar who makes beats for other rappin' pornstars???
Pure entertainment. Porno Producers. Actor Rappers. Part Time Artists. Full Time Hustlers.
What are folks standing for? $$$ and fame can't be enough.
Don't mistake this random rant as me being an idealist. I know the twist.
I just understand balance is conducive to health. And right now many of us are forced to eat at the Corner Store that only sells Flaming Hot Cheetos, Old English, and Sour Powers, not knowing there's a Whole Foods in town. Takes a little more effort to get to, but the health benefits are unmatched.
All this isn't new.
Art Vs. Commerce.
Talent Vs. Hustle.
Betting on Complacency.
for many...
This is the State of Hip-Hop.
This is the State of R&B.
A State of Emergency.
And even with my concern, I'm not worried. There are many who make that trip to Whole Foods and bring groceries back to those who aren't in the know.
Those who haven't lost sight that this time, this life, NOW affects the future.
This $h!t right here??? This $h!t right here??? This $h!t right here???
This IS the STATE OF THE ARTS.
Album Coming SOOOOOOOOOON.
