Everybody, I believe has had that day or week or even year, where you think "shit, what else can go wrong". Those times fucking suck, no matter the magnitude of what the issues that are happening whether it be a hard work week, family issues, money problems or just silly ass relationship issues. They stress you out they dominate your thoughts, they distract you and they even cause actual physical illness and pains. Also the issues always beg the question "why the fuck is this happening to me", well I have a theory and I don't think many of you will like it but if you know me, you know I wouldn't be myself if I didn't say what I felt so fuck it here it goes. God likes kicking people in the nuts, he really enjoys giving unsuspecting nuts a fantastic crotch shot.
I know, I know, most of you have this benevolent all knowing, all loving theory about God but I, well let's just say I disagree. How can I say that? where is my evidence? Oh..well thank you for asking and please let me explain. My first and simplest answer is are you fucking paying attention to the shitty ass world we live in? How many people do you know who are struggling to survive? I would imagine you know a few, I definitely do, myself included. Life is hard for a lot of good people and easy and fun for a lot of huge smelly cock faces (George Bush, Paris Hilton I could go on & on). You may say well that's not God's fault he gives us free will. Ah well that solves it he gave us free will that just proves that every bad shitty thing that happens in your life is all your fault, wait though let's think about that for a second.
Free will is at it's best contingent on a few things, at its worst just an illusion that makes everyone feel better. Free will is limited to you either being alone or stronger, smarter or faster than the obstacle that can possibly prevent you from doing what you want to do. My analogy is simple I want to be a millionaire but free will by itself will not allow me to do that. I either have to have a skill set to gain that monetary success or be lucky enough to have a parent to pass that money on to me I can't just decide hey I want a million dollars I'm gonna go into my bank account and change my account balance to 1 million. I know it's an over simplified example but my point is I may have the free will to pursue that money but I do not have the free will to just get it, and that is the limitation of free will. You may say well that's not free will but well then your just playing with the definitions and manipulating the words to make it benefit your argument. Free will is only free when your directly dealing with yourself, so if you want to be gay or dance the Macarena all day then hey do it until you pass out. The second you add another human being into that equation your percentages of doing what you want drops dramatically. Then by the truest form of the definition your will isn't quite as free.
So the free will debate will go on and on but we all know deep down unless your some kind of billionaire or a genius evil sociopath you don't really have free will. Another argument against God and his love for nut shots is that He doesn't actually cause these bad things to happen to us. It was because of Adam and Eve or better known as just plain and simple human nature. BINGO!!! wait no not bingo, if it is plain old human nature to cause harm or sadness to each other where exactly did our human nature come from? Don't you believe in this all powerful, all knowing, all loving, all controlling creator? Well if he did create us, wouldn't it mean that by the same reasoning that he created our negative parts of humanity? And don't give me that devil shit 'cuz that just contradicts all kinds of things about God. Mainly his all powerfulness and benevolence, if there was an actual real life douche bag devil going around fucking shit up for his favorite creations God would have two options, A.) destroy the annoyance or B.) alter the devils way of thinking instead of tolerating his douche baggery. If there was a devil and he is allowed to mess things up it really just proves my point even more that God thoroughly enjoys the nut shot and he likes watching the devil wreak havoc.
See when you believe in a one God it all comes back to him or her, there is no yin and yang no counter balance or opposites attracting. There is just the one source and everything comes from that source. The concept of the devil or free will doesn't really jive with the thought of One all knowing, powerful, loving God. See in order for the devil to survive he would either have to be just as powerful or allowed to survive, and there are too many people with too many negative selfish intentions for free will to be absolute. This is where my thoughts on this actually come from. God likes it this way. Maybe he's rooting for us to do well maybe he wants to see us overcome and he enjoys watching us, but he's definitely not to put out when we don't. I believe if there is a God his biggest response is " aww you almost made enough money to not have your house foreclosed on, tsk tsk too bad, well now you got to live on the street, how you gonna get out of that?"
Sure it would seem that my thoughts dark and a lot less hopeful than yours, it also makes me more of a believer in myself and the strength of myself. I believe people have the power to overcome on their own, without having to beg God for assistance. As soon as you get out the belief that this is in his plan and that somehow it'll be ok, you don't have to fight back, because your a good person and your going to heaven it will be perfect then, our society will be greatly improved. Fuck that I'm not waiting for heaven I'm here now on this earth and I want a good life here I want to enjoy this time here. Honestly it's all I know I've never been to heaven nor have I ever met someone who has. So I'll put my faith in my ability to appreciate this life I was given and this heavenly place that has so much possibility and beauty in it. If that happens then maybe we'll stop allowing people like George Bush, Ronald Reagan, Sarah Palin, and Rush Limbaugh from manipulating us into believing that their supposed to be millionaires and we're not because of other poor people holding us down. So to all my God believers out there stop accepting those nut shots as the way it's supposed to be, understand that God is not picking favorites he probably doesn't care either way, he's just enjoying the show.
If there even is a God, we're more like ants in an ant farm than his children that he/she loves. I don't know about you but most parents I know go overboard with protecting their children from calamity. They will do any and everything to make sure their children are happy and enjoying life. That's why we have so many celebutantes nowadays and we've had all through out history these dynastic families who only pass their wealth on to their children. If god was our "father/mother" He would've made this world a certified Utopia and we all would be happy and enjoying our lives, because most parents just can't resist spoiling and believing they've provided the best they could for their kids, and you mean to tell me the all powerful God who thinks of us as his children wouldn't use his powers to make things perfect for us?!?!?!? Only once we lived our life perfectly then we can reach this perfect land in the sky?
Why even bother making it that way unless he enjoys watching the perfectly timed nut shot right when you don't need it. So either we need to re-assess how we perceive god (like maybe he doesn't care like you think), or and you may want to sit down for this, but maybe just maybe it's just us here and what happens in your life is solely based off of you and your fellow man (ok, ok settle down Christians I know your going insane in front of your laptops right now spitting & frothing at the mouth calling me all kinds of blasphemous names). It's really just a thought that maybe there is no big puppet master in the sky and we need to strap on our cups, nut up and make this place better for all of us, and stop being stupid allowing fat fucks like Limbaugh and the Koch brothers from manipulating us by playing on our silly ass antiquated fears. Seriously it's time to grow up America.

Hip Hop I love you but... We need to talk
Every time I think music can't get any worse, I turn the radio on and hear shit like Racks, the 336 Boyz (boys? whatever), K-Stylis or that Tony Montana song. I can't lie sometimes it's catchy and I end up listening to the whole song or even singing along, but only when I'm by myself and never in front of anybody who I even remotely care about what they think of me. I've only used rappers because, that's my favorite genre to criticize because it's the genre I love the most and spent the most time with, we grew up together. BUT, please believe all other popular genre's have successful sucky leading artist I'm looking at you kesha, beiber, ciara, and kreayshawn. For the majority of the post I will stick to hip hop because it's the one I'm the most disappointed in and also it seems to have the most consistency of sucky artist.
Now I know I did name two local acts, but hey if your from another city please by all means insert your shitty local artist on the radio, cuz' those muthafuckers are every where they're like annoying ass cock roaches with loud voices on. The sad part is that these guys who for the most part suck and somehow believe that their little radio success will lead them to overall success umm no, just stop seriously, you suck and most of us hate that your on our radio for 3minutes and 46 seconds or however the fuck long your shitty ass song is. I was going to quote some of the lyrics from these local guys, but then I thought na there's a bigger issue and, plus do I really need to waste my time on their lyrics? You know they suck I know they suck let's just move on.
Like I said in the opening, Hip Hop and I grew up together, I was born in '81 the music started in the early 80's depending on who you ask. So I, for the most part heard it all at some point in time during my life, I was very much influenced during hip hop's golden age during the 90's. I remember it being dominated by dancing ass MC Hammer, NWA bring in that west coast gangsta music that my friends and I weren't allowed to listen to. A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul's back-packery introduction, Nice and Smooth and Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince more fun partying style music. I'm not forgetting the originators like KRS One, Big Daddy Kane, Rakim and the godfather of thug hip hop music Kool G Rap click the link or google him youngin's. I'm just speaking of the 90's where Hip Hop was mainstreamed and popularized to the point where I found out biggie died because this white girl I was messing with at the time called me at 10 in the a.m. crying about it. That's the golden age to me where not only was Hip Hop really becoming popular but the music making and skills of the artist were starting to mesh and fit together perfectly. Now the actual music making and production has far surpassed the actual skills of 95% of most rappers nowadays.
Who's the hottest rapper now? Lil Wayne? Nope he's singing now, Drake? He's always been a singer who can rap a little bit. Wiz? more of just a nigga who's high all the time who has a bunch of hippie's who listen to him 'cuz they're high too. J Cole *falls asleep snoring*zzzzzzz*wakes up abruptly* huh? oh yea my bad I fell asleep just thinking about a J Cole album sorry he's boring.(seriously who even says "who dat" anymore? shit is wack fuck outta here!) Wale? nope can't be he's doesn't move enough units same goes for Lupe (IMO is probably the best from a content standpoint of them all) I like B.O.B. but he's kinda stuck in between drake and Lupe category, singer good rapper nice content but doesn't move units like say a Wayne or have the features like a Rick Ross(did I really just type that? *pulls out a gun and kills self* ). Ahhh yes now on to the so called thug, dope boy category so there's Jeezy, Rick Ross, Gucci (GUCCI!!!!!) Ace Hood, wait what? They're not all the same guy who just changes his voice a little on each song?? really?? no way!! welp, huh...go figure, you learn something new everyday I guess. You get my point, those rappers are all the same they're hot for a few summers two at best then they flame out, Jeezy is going through it now, Ross your next I hope you've been saving your money brotha.
So that pretty much leaves us with just Kanye' (I don't count Jay Z because he came out in the 90's and is the undisputed heavy weight champ period) The sad part is Ye' started off as a producer the best part is that as an artist he's continued to grow and get better even though he's cheating a bit because he can make the best beats for his style, because he make's his own. I think as far as longevity, ability, skills to match the production, marketabilty and star quality it's Ye'. I say that to say that compare any Kanye' song to any of the top rappers of the 90's and it's no contest. Bigge? Nas? Eminem? Jay Z? Pac? Scarface? Big L? (google him) even Prodigy of Mobb Deep(shook ones verse is my trump card) Would he even be in the top 5 of Wu-Tang (meth, rae, ghost, gza, odb)? Na I don't see it, but today? 2011 he's easily one of the best every body's top 3 albums should include his from this year. Now don't tell Kanye that though I don't think his ego could handle it, but he's really not in the same class of those rappers it's like basketball after MJ retired we were stuck with Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, and a bunch of high schoolers who should've taken more time to work on their game it just wasn't the same brand of basketball it just wasn't as good.
Now we're stuck with these Rapper-N-B dudes like Roscoe Dash, seriously Roscoe wtf!!! Are you a singer,rapper what? tell us what do you do besides hooks?? I need to know I'll be huddled in a corner holding myself and rocking back-n-forth mumbling rapper? singer? ,and periodically letting loose a manical laugh before I can figure it out. The music has been morphed, and blended so much that Big Sean (big? really nigga? gtfoh) and drake are arguing about who stole Ja Rule's style first. Come on fella's be for real nothing your doing is new or original, nothing! Then we got this racks shit (nope I'm not linking that crap), really you can't have a hot song if the first 3 times anyone hears it they have no idea what your saying? Have you seen this clown? If you can actually sing the chorus to me verbatim you'll win a cookie then a swift kick in the nuts or a punch in the tit (I'm an equal opportunist), for cheating 'cuz you looked that shit up!! No one knows what he's saying not even him 'cuz he's a ratard. Don't even get me started on Nikki Minaj, Waka (Voting Good!), Rocko, OJ da juiceman(who I'm pretty sure is a heroin addict). All terrible if you can be Parodied and the Parody is just as good as anything you make? Houston you have a fucking problem.
I say all this to say that I love hip hop music, I love it so much that I'll suffer through her tryst with every wanna be rapper, dope boy, gangsta, so called rapper singer or rap-n-b artist there is. I'll even listen to their music when it's on the radio or t.v. just because the beat is nice and the hook is catchy. Yes I will, I'll deal with the auto-tune era which for some reason refuses to die or go away. I understand auto-tune is the equivalent to HGH and steroids in sports, for rap-n-b artists, but we've had enough stop abusing us with your terrible singing thank you. I just need Hip Hop to occasionally drop a hot album every 6 months and when that happens I'll turn off the Kings of Leon, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bloc Party and every other artist or group that actually tries to make good music, so I can listen to Watch the Throne, or whatever Wale and B.O.B calls their latest album. You know why because I'm loyal, and I truly love music, all music, good music and especially Hip Hop music.
