Say It and Play It






I am a human mockingbird but no Ike Turner speaking of slapping. I listen to accents and language patterns then imitate them and it’s good for a writer for enrichment purposes or else you risk sounding too educated and start doing Will Short word puzzles while listening to NPR.

Rap radio on Satellite has been my latest orbit and maybe the last resting place of free speech. In the morning a girl without much of a clue reads from morning news headlines and then people call in. She read about the professor from a small school in New England who was shooting students with his thumb and forefinger making some bogus if not extremely insensitive commentaries about the Virginia Tech tragedy. The adjunct Professor should not have been talking junk and as a result his non tenured ass was summarily fired as they say on mainstream cable.

The rap host kicked open the phone lines by saying,”I’m all for freedom of speech and academic freedom and all that and I don’t think the man should have been fired but I just have one question,”What the fuck?” And with that the phone lines were open.

“Yo man I’m just sayin like you ain’t goin to see no Chinese dude walk into a classroom at a black school and waste 30 people cause that shit just ain’t happenin, know what I’m sayin? I mean he maybe get two or three but somebody gonna shoot his ass straight up. Thirty people, no dog, fuck that!”

The Host responded “Are you saying all students at black colleges pack heat when they attend classes?” “Nah man, probably not all of them, but enough, you know, it’s like having sky marshals in your class, just in case some shit do be breakin out.”

“The Host got sarcastic: “And if that didn’t work maybe they could throw their weed at him.”

“Whatever yo?”

“Next caller.”

The themes of uncensored rap are pretty consistency the same as to border on non creative like if the music genre were a car it would be a Geo Tracker. It’s kind of cool but has a contaminating effect in the way you speak cutting off words at the beginning and end and the messages are mostly nasty and disrespectful of authority and women but Ice T is still my boy check out his lastest CD where he makes fun of it all and still gets paid with his Yellow Masarati driving self.

I’m out. Next stop is the all white Christian gospel channel and that is going to be tough!

Hey yo, good handle on eubonics. Loved them, all but Halberstam, unless you mean real smart like that buck tooth, emaciated, tweedy coat twerp that tries to teach Chaos and Random theory to vapid, glassy eyed students but forgets to wash, can't hit the high hard stuff and thinks hip hop is something that happens on a trail at Easter Glad you got back
