That was on point, that brotha put it out there.
I watched this a couple of weeks ago and it's pretty deep. Who is this guy?
I guess we're on the same wavelength. I posted the same video on my blog just a moment BEFORE I dropped by here. Talaam Acey is the poet's name, and he has a great page on Myspace that features more of his work.
DC, I'm enjoying your blog--nice.

thanks ced.it/meant.it! i'm on my way over to yours now!
sugar - isn't this deep! i'm not really a big fan of spoken word, but this was sooooo on point, i may have to convert back.
yes... HE'S SO ON POINT... I actually saw it on someone blog a week or so ago and sent it to all my friends...I was wondering who he was too; I hope he's causing awarness to these Black issues.
dude is on point ... it's a shame that more people don't see that being an ignorant being though profitable is detrimental our community
Yeah, I don't really care for "spoken word" either and he almost lost me a couple of times during his rant, but the power of his words drew me back in.
Oh Lord, I need you guys to help me! That new 50 Cent, "Amusement Park" is drawing me in like the Pied Piper! I love a beat like that and he isn't REALLy degrading women is he? He's just saying he wants to please some random chick....oh damn! I need you guys to do an analysis on this one! lol
Check it out on Youtube. The video is pretty standard...tits and ass, but just close your eyes and listen to the words. lol
sugar - girl you KNOW you area trip!
dang...son was dropping knowledge.
DCSavvystar, did you watch it? Tell me what you think. Do I need to be chastised, or can I listen since I'm grown? Where does the line have to be drawn?
sugar - this song is off the hook.... oh my goodness - the beat is DOPE - but 50 and his metaphors.... we had candy shop, magic stick... now amusement park. we should lock 50's ass up in neverland with michael jackson! lol
