Peace on earth is just shutting the fuck up. Dont rush. Letting that car merge. Sharing the arm rest on the plane. Letting unc put his numbers in…

Just chill. Fuck it.
There is no finish line

Let it happen

Dr Walter Rodney was assassinated on June 13, 1980, by a bomb planted in a walkie talkie. He was 38.

His key work, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, exposed the roots of global inequality and the violence of colonial underdevelopment.

There's Black people in Detroit defending gentrification saying we should be happy they're fixing the city. Nigga, you should be mad that the government miraculously found the money to revitalize Detroit once a billionaire wanted it.

Everybody says they miss the blog era but I swear it wasn’t even about the music or the blogs for that matter it was the fact of you seen everybody with everybody linking up not acting too rich or too cool to show another love, that’s what’s missing in the rap game now

Need someone who understands vocal techniques to apply & adapt that concept to rap. I want to see the variations that artists use when rapping documented as style choices vs always being pitted against each other in competition. I dream of rap apprection books and classes in the standard of art appreciation, bc it's art .
