@sorry

I used to think the guy was alright. I mean, from one point of view, he was just like so many other disadvantaged black men and he spoke for how they felt, and scared the shit out of whitey.

But I also really loved Kurt Cobain because he spoke for angsty self-destruction. Used to.

Both Kurt Cobain and Shukur are dead man. And rightfully so, not because they were necessarily bad people, but because what they stood for could never survive, nor poetically did they. That bad ass gansta thing, where would you go with it? Even with millions made from rapping about it, which only a handful out of millions ever get to do, you still wind up killed by it. You can find as much poetry in that as you want, but I can understand the others and what they’re saying…the guy did embody violence, even if that violence is an understandable reaction to history; its not the stuff of a very good future.
