Musing & Muted Monologues...

Trying to Make Sense of It All...

Thursday, May 08, 2003

Pardon the interruption, but the post for yesterday's blog was an unavoidable tangent pertaining to scapegoating... Unfortunately, folks like to profess certain virtues that they never hold true to, but when the light shines on them, they need someone to blame. Just seen hip hop blamed for so many things, shit, I've seen green monkeys blamed for HIV...what a way to get known. Imagine your a green monkey, and nobody knows who the hell you are. You don't have any shots on the national geographic shows like the hippo, or the lion...nobody finds you remotely entertaining like the baboon, or flying squirrel. Then one day people start dropping dead left and right, and everybody points at you. The wild part is, that you supposedly have a disease that people catch from you if they skin you. Now, you're an outcast in the jungle...nobody wants to be your friend. Before, they just din't know you and figured you to be a recluse, but now you have killer cooties. No one will play with you, and all because somebody wants to mix some cow lukeinia and sheep visna together for population control. Is there a true enough apology that we could give the green monkey?! How would we feel if they did that to us, huh?! Point blank: If you ain't about the positive progression of hip hop, leave it alone!
Okay...I'm cool now.
