Thank you for highlighting older rappers and their newer projects. The thing that has been on my mind is that I like my older rappers and will support their projects, however, as I get older I now have the expectation that my favorite rappers grow and mature as well. For example, I listened to the last Ghostface Killah album and for the most part, it was good, but there was one song talking about sexing females and said to myself, sir……you sound a little ridiculous at this stage of your life. Where is your growth? I don’t mean you have to rap about getting the gout or stretching before you go to bed, but some growth in your music style. I love Eminem, however, we have moved from Slim Shady days and that was highlighted very well in his last album, The Death of Slim Shady. FYI – Fuel with JID goes!!!! My best example of growth with my rappers has to be the song Last Dayz by Onyx which is my favorite Onyx song! That was 1995 and it captured the feeling at that time, however, there is a reloaded version of Last Dayz with Dead Prez featuring Onyx that highlights growth yet stating fuck the system we are in. Also, don’t get me started with Nas and his King’s Disease triology! Elder statesman Nas is the best thing out here. Anyhoo, I know this comment is long, however, this has been on my mind for the past couple of months and once you touched on this subject, I had to get my keyboard ready..LOL! Thank you 🙂
Money is always an option but that guy probably didn’t have a lot of it. I know most of these gender wars are set ups but I’d be on the woman’s side if a guy really took her to Starbucks for a first date. I can see a meet up at a coffee shop to see if the two of you vibe but not to go out to at night. Gender wars is one of my favorite segments because these scenarios are always so crazy.
For the Ferret guy I was considering Gallifreyan, as Sylvester McCoy (the Seventh Doctor) was known for stuffing ferrets down his trousers…
Despite the intro, every time Guess the Race goes into Sword Ratchetness, I always end up trying to guess the race of the sword criminal.
“Burn in down” people are in reality not serious or mature people. They expect, that after you burned everything down, stuff will somehow get rebuilt like by magic, only better and fairer.
But who would be the rebuilder?
God? The government that is otherwise not to be trusted as they say themselves?
I don’t see them rebuilding anything. And so it can be that you burn it all down and sit in a burned building for the rest of your life.
( me personally, not a fan of this)
Same with people who think that progress is something that happens authentically, not because people fought for it. I remember them wondering, “ how do we still deal with this in 2016? ‘ why not?
There are always forces in the world that want to go back. If you think progress happens on its own, you stop appreciating it and are just always mad that it’s not further along.
First off my condolences on Black Panther the video game not happening. Not every film can inspire a hit video game, let alone several hit video games. No shame in not reaching that multimedia mountaintop.
Second, on the topic of guess the race, dick-taker-outers, I remember a week I was in Cleveland and on my 2nd day there a white man was walking across this bridge with his dick out. Then, on my 4th and last day there, on the same bridge there was a Black man beating his meat on the same bridge. It’s that kind of biracial acceptance that made me want to be part of the Cleveland community.
Lastly, after this episode, I realized if I had a podcast in the 1910s it would have been called The Black Guy Who Tenths
