This Violent Future

This child is probably very stable.  It looks like he lives in the suburbs and his parents probably love him.  In fact they probably are never gone from home because they aren't on call or have some things come up.  As you can tell they're car is in the driveway for such long periods of time that the garage has virtually become a hangar for their constant presence in this young boy's life.  He's active with other ten year olds his age, not playing videogames or committing random acts of vandalism.  This is such a shining example of indulgent and mythically epic parenting it brings tears to my eyes.

They know exactly what he is doing when he uses their video camera and dressing up in fantastical soldier gear he has meticulously crafted, no doubt with their ever loving support and guidance.  I can see it now, dad using gobs of scotch tape making a pseudo plasma grenade, his son just finishing the snub nose barrel of the assault rifle.  His son stops working and says, "Dad..."  Dad looks up.  "I love you." 

 "I love you too, son," he says.  

Then mom brings in a plate of brownies and sits with them, her arm around her loving husband lawyer.

You know what.  America is going to be just fine.  

 

YUNG MUNNAY

Rich ass rap is starting to get good.  I guess Kanye really has done wonders for the game.  He straight brought some style because four years ago if you had showed me this video of Weezy thowin it down with that background i would have asked if you were Doc Brown bout ta git in yo Delorean fav thou zand!

In all fairness, this record, Carter III, is something special. I know everyone has been pooping their

proverbial knickers after listening, and all the blogs be afire, but after many good hard listenings, Weezy

done did it. I will be peeping more than half of these tracks for many years to come. It's a work. A

real piece of work.
