fundamentals

I feel lost in translation
i know there is always an explanation that
gets me high on frustration
frustration of knowing better and choosing worse...
of wanting to boil down differences into similarities
all the meanwhile holding on to a truth that is more complex than
just single minded attitudes...
to ask questions that don't have answers, yet.
but the fact that they are voiced onto the universe projects
a deeper understanding by knowing there are ways to go about learning
that we have yet to comprehend...


SLINGSHOT HIP HOP



what does it say about the essence of hip hop when images translate concepts and notions without understanding the language in which these are articulated?



what does it mean when baggy attire is still consumed internationally to demarcate hip hop yet the new bone thugs and harmony album cover has them all suited and booted? ooh the good all days...




in trying to attempt to understand the road ahead, I look back at the roots of our desire to challenge and challenge over again to plenitude what we have come to qualify as our truth.
