Joe Budden went in on all of this ish for like half an hour and I related to everything. I'm not sure if that's a good thing, like I'm an old jaded hip hop head these days.

I got a mod in the OT board arguing with me that Kayne's comments weren't bad. I'm happy I don't know anyone in real life that'll defend his comments because I'd put hands on someone frfr if they said the type of **** I see online.

They're bringing up his tweets he posted for clarification too like he didn't tweet the same crap that slavery was a choice and make up a Harriet Tubman quote to do it.

Which mod? People have no shame. I try not to lose my cool when discussing stuff with students, never do, but it was getting a heated so I can definitely see you losing it and myself as well if it was a full grown adult. We are living in an era where ignorance is okay and facts be damned. These kids were literally trying to spin any information I gave them.

Yeah kids are different. And you can go to the Current Events board if you wanna see which mod. Good thing he only mods the Magic Board and nothing important.

Always impressed at how many multi's and slant rhymes these dudes can fit into a track with almost all of them coming off clean. Royce's craft is top notch.

Got a phone call with an email including a contract that a publishing company wanted to pick up my book.

Title: The Rose That Grew From Concrete: Tupac: The Modern Day Messiah

Utilizes Tupac's interviews and lyrics as a symbol in our society for oppression, economic inequality, and brutality. Draws contrast to Plato's Cave Allegory Theory mirroring American society.

ETA right now is February 2019.

It is all about black people. It's 0% about white lol. I though that was obvious. One thing I am is heavily educated.

Book hits on
- Afeni Shakur
- Black Panther movement
- W.E.B. DuBois
- Malcolm X
- Brown vs. Board
- Plato Cave Allegory Theory

Here's a small excerpt.

The Black Panther’s were more like a pack of wolves in the way they opposed the opposition. They did so, most notably by using knowledge as its chief tool. Much like Pac, The power of words were pivotal towards the Black Panther’s ability to spread the message. Delivering papers that would represent the righteous, defending equality, and freedom for all were integral towards their ambition towards starting a revolution. The “Socialist Alternative” had stated that support was so big that “they rapidly grew to a size of 5,000 full time party workers, organized in 45 chapters (branches) across America. At their peak, they sold 250,000 papers every week. Opinion polls of the day showed the Panthers to have 90% support amongst Blacks in the major cities.” (Wood) Their impact on Black America can be measured by the response of the state. J. Edgar Hoover, then head of the FBI described them as “the number one threat to the internal security of the United States.” (Socialist Alternative) Threat? How can the government and mass media taint the perception of a righteous movement? Easy. The control system that we just so happen to call the United States’ government lived in paranoia and fear that the oppressed were beginning to fight back, while still remaining intellectual and articulate in their ways. Much of these ways were highlighted in their historical ten point program, which was transmitted to thousands of papers in the rise of the Black Panthers.

I feel like it's impossible to do that with Pac (or at least sneak it by the type of audience that would buy a book like this), but when the publisher asks for a follow-up book about Kanye this dude's gettin' a suspension :lol:
