Trying to Make Sense of It All...

Aww, hell naw...

Okay, since this damn journal entry software just lost my original post, here's the fuckin' short version of the story.
On Easter, while I was looking at my little brother's iPod, he asked me if I was familiar with the Black Eyed Peas; did I like them and what not not. I jested with him telling him I didn't feel inclined to support their latest CD, but I had their first two. I then stated that he didn't know about the BEP's until Fergie joined them. At which point, he states, "I know who they are, they used to be A Tribe Called Quest, right?"
Pure. Unadulturated. Blasphemy. If he had said that shit around anybody but family, I'da had to disown his ass. In his defense, he has lived in Centerville, VA all his life.
Talk to your kids and younger siblings about hip hop awareness. Don't let ignorance affect them unnecessarily. This has been a PSA from Lee (the Poet)
