Welcoming Jackie Chan into Columbine Gang.

Do we have a problem?

Don't cry for help when you benefit from the problem.

Don't call something problem if you contribute to it.

Unhonorable Discharge

It was fun while it lasted, but I must remove Bart Simpson from Columbine Gang.

My heart was in the right place, but his head isn't.

Many CGi members have complained about being plain annoyed by him.

So Bart, out ya go!

I hope this doesn't breed any contempt between CGi and Fox.

I AM A MAN

Been finding a lot of old photos I took as I clear off 

this hard drive from college...

(Untitled) I AM A MAN 

(1988)

by Glenn Ligon

This is kinda special to me, since I was just discussing this artist with 

a good friend the other day.

My memory is bad, so I half forgot I took these, only to 

discover them last night.

"Throughout his career, Ligon has used 'blackness' as a trope for both personal and collective experience. As Ligon has said (paraphrasing Muhammed Ali), 'It's not about me. It's about we.' The deliberately rough surface of the painting, which Ligon later documented by having a condition report made as an ancillary work of art, seems to index the scars and struggles of the work's great subject."

(from NGA.gov)

This work was inspired by 1,300 sanitation workers, striking after the death of two colleagues,

due to faulty equipment. These strikers' signs were made famous in 1968 by the photographs of Ernest Withers, shown below--

Gotta love the intersection of art & protest

DJ Jazzy Jeff has been going insane since the pandemic started.

And needs more love and support than he gets.

Truly a pioneer, innovator, and... overall magnificent!

Many won't accept that he was the intrigue of his duo with The Fresh Prince.

Which isn't to say Will isn't a monster (in his own right).

We've met on a few occasions, and have hit it off wonderfully.

He is idol-worthy.

Much love, Jazzy-O!

Honest villainy

I find that I post more on this blog because I'm not alone.

That summed up most of the post.

I love my gang.

I worship Eminem.

I fear Jay-Z.

I respect Nas.

I need love.

Common is a beast.

That's what I wanted to say.

I'm sorry, Doja Cat, for ruining your fun.

The post about 9th

9th and I have a historical love/hate relationship.

Keep in mind, 9th is my potential.

But he wants to be big and famous.

I want to make a difference.

He makes "make a difference" music.

I make "big and famous" music.

9th is hard-headed and disobeyed.

I conform, to avoid violence.

I know 9th loves me.

He knows I love him.

But, word to #Voodoochild, we are closer than anyone can imagine.

I only want the best for him.

And I idolize this picture.

Happy Early Birthday, 9thmatic!

All I Do (A DM/freewrite)

 I come from the heart

with All I do.

Being heartbroken stops my movement.

I'm not sure

where to Start with finding a new

resource.

My mind is always in love.

Maybe not always romantic

, but love is the message.

How many people misunderstood?

Misunderstand?

A warrior cannot make art.

So I should

not be Doing anything.

Yet it all makes sense

in Bloodshed.

As I lose, I am

rewarded.

Love is my weakness.

I come from the heart, with

All I do.
