Short Presentation on The Progression of Popular Hip-Hop Music.

I now present to you a short presentation on the progression of Popular Hip Hop music over the last 29 years. (Video credit from Youtube.)

Singularity...oh crap

Hey guys, it's been awhile. Recently I've been doing a lot of work for school, including a speech on the California Video Game Bill (which is ridiculous, and unconstitutional. Expect an immanent blog post on the subject). Anyway, yesterday I performed the speech for my class, and everything went well. Yet something didn't feel right, I was missing something. Then it hit me like a bowling ball to the gut. I had lost my flash drive.

"Oh god now there is so much information about myself, merely floating out there in the ether" At the time I didn't realize how ironic this thought process was. Who cares if someone can see my name, a few ps3 saves (including the playstation home pictures), and a power point I made three years ago? I came to the stunning realization that there is so much personal information floating around in the interwebs, that we are essentially in a state of full personal disclosure constantly. In essence, the internet serves as a globally shared mind, capturing all of our most private, and intimate moments.

DEAR SUMMER,

Summer vacation is almost here folks, the robins are back, the grass is growing and the fragrant odor of sweat and Rita's Water Ice is all around.

If you're thinking "Damn! That was poetic!!" That's because that's what summer does to people.

Poetry flows from summer like poop from a baby.

There are more poems out about the summer then there are white girls at a Lil' Wayne concert.

I don't know how else to stress the point, but I'm going to put the word summer here, because I like explaining things in 3's. Summmmmerrrrrrr.

You get the idea.

But while it's still kind of far away, I'm going to go ahead and set some ground rules for some people who just take the idea of summer and get too carried away.

Jury Duty...Well That Was Fun!!

Hey guy's want to hear a joke?
Woman's Basketball...

Any who, you know what grinds my gears? When someones walking by you and they ask you "How are you doing?" and then just keep on walking. I mean, what's the point of asking? If you ask me how I'm doing I expect you to stand there and find out. How rude!!

Now lets talk about something that we all love...Jury Duty

There's something deeply disturbing about jury duty. And I'm not saying that just because I had to be at City Hall way earlier on a Monday morning than I'm used to functioning. I'll get up at 6am when I want or need to. But it's an absolute OUTRAGE to get a government letter that says I'm required to do my supposedly "civic duty," and if I don't, a warrant may be issued for my arrest.

I don't understand why this isn't a bigger political issue. Just about everybody hates jury duty.

Now I want to talk about everybody's favorite past time, music. Here's something that happens to me all the time.

You hear a song over and over again and pretty soon you're singing out loud it like you wrote the damn thing.

It comes on at a party or on the radio and everybody starts singing it at the top of their lungs.

Then, you get to this part and everybody has a different version of how it goes.

After the primary awkwardness, people start arguing and fighting over what the exact lyrics are.

You go to some shady lyric website to settle the debate but it keeps trying to sell you all types of crazy shit.

You start to panic and eventually you cry while the world as you know it melts to nothingness.

GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER.

Well, I decided I was tired of this happening. So I'm here to set the record straight.

This is my definitive, end-all be-all list of song lyrics. I'm gonna place one song here today (courtesy of youtube) and give you what the exact lyrics are and where in the song they appear.

Never again will there be an argument over a lyric. Now everyone will be on the same page!
