man, there is so much going on in my life. First off I know whats really good with me.
The other day, me and Jermaine had a debate about Tupac and Biggie (just as a preface, I still think Biggie's a Better emcee. Tupac is much more charismatic across the board, but as far as the spittin goes...i am much more fond of the Notorious B.I.G.....R.I.P. to both). And i was a shame because I couldn't even get my argument across, because it was soo bad. I tried to emphasize the fact that Tupac was too multi-dimensional for me to get on. And throughout that argument, I realized something. Right now im listening to Tori Amos. I am writing in a journal. I am also preparing to go rap tonite with my boys, and smoke weed. I, just like tupac in a way, exhibit that same mulit-faceted behavior. In essence, I should be FEELING tupac for that reason alone. Tupac had appeal from MADONNA and Charlie Sheen, to the REST of the Hip Hop Culture. SO why is it that I didn't and still don't like him as much as I like Biggie? Now the answer to this question came with much contemplation. Maybe i dont' want to ascribe to the same thing that I actually am. I figure that I would rather vibe on someone esle who is one-dimensional, or "more" one-dimensional in order to abdicate my own variating dimensions. But its ok though because I prefer that. I would rather dive into different facets of the world and get my own experience. If I were a pac fan, I feel like, i wouldn't be able to appreciate...or maybe thats the wrong word; I personally feel Hip-Hop is not something that someone can fully exhibit in the WHOLE sense of the genre. I've met alot of people who basically like Pac and NO ONE else. Whereas for me, I like to listen to all of the rap I have. Where this relates to the original argument is that Tupac isn't for me. ITs pretty daunting for me to say. But thats the honest to god truth.
BTW As much as I have missed all the girlfriend boyfriend life, I am so glad im done with it. It wasn't working out after a while. Its sad though, because I would have never come in contact with someone, who I would find out would not talk to me anymore. Thats mad wack. But i mean it is a necessary process she needs to get through. However, I don't want this break up to affect my future possibilities with other ladies on campus. And unfortunately I already feel like it will, because of the way that some of the girls think. They have a very interesting stigma about dating, especially other people their friends have dated. Its like because it didn't work for them, the friends aren't going to possibly have a good relationship with them. Ugh. Oh well i won't stress it.
holla at me man
