We are to blame for the downfall of our society. when you decided that "dont believe me just watch nigga nigga nigga " was considered rapping. And when you continued to rave to Rick Ross and his date rape lyrics. But i guess you dont have the mental capacity to process lyrics beyond "ass ass ass ass".
Our brains have been reconditioned to find the most ridiculous things entertaining. 'Spooder man' mems and adventure time are used to pass the time when we are not busy planking, choking on cinnamon or twerking.
And the new drug craze. Cool has been somehow redefined to mean 'i smoke weed'. this results in a bunch of teenagers that haven't been within 2 feet of a marijuana leaf googling the side effects of smoking and acting accordingly . Nothing is taboo or too extreme any more. it has become common place for people to 'pop a molly' which is apparently followed by sweating. how do you feel about having children in a world where getting high is the in thing.
The English language has taken the biggest blow in this evolution. i could make an endless list of the stupid things people say, but all i really want is a list of the people who enjoy being called "bae". i really need some clarity on what is attractive about sounding like a goat.
Dispite our rapid decent towards American values, i would sill like to give Jamaica the credit it deserves for not having shows like 16 and pregnant, pregnant and dating and bridezillaz. Sadly we could not let the swag train pass us by. We all too willingly threw caution to the wind, running around half naked, tatted up , sleeping with multiple partners screaming YOLO. gone are the good old days when sleeping around was a bad thing.
There isnt an aspect of life that hasnt been dumbed down; music, food, social networks, movies etc. I expected society to change, i just did not expect it to become paloma ding ding ding. and the worst part is , today is worse than yesterday, but better than tomorrow.
"today is worse than yesterday, but better than tomorrow." I want to emphasize the 'better than tomorrow'...One day when you are old & gray and you realize your grandkids are listening to worse music you will chuckle to yourself when you remember how stupid you thought this music was.
ReplyDeleteYou think music is bad NOW? it will get worse..."dont believe me jus watch, nigga nigga nigga"
But i think the reason we find this music so stupid is because we are old enough, or smart enough to now appreciate intellectual music. So lyrics with no thought behind them are 'stupid' or 'annoying'. But if we were younger, this stupid music would be the greatest things hitting our ear drums
agreed. and im bracing myself for what is to come. but at the same time when i was younger i still knew the difference between good music and 'stupid' music. and there are kids today that think the music is stupid. being older does affect your taste in things but its not the only factor.
DeleteI see you point.
