Jurassic 5

I really liked the song you played for us today, "We see a coming war." The artist tells a story throughout the song and raps about current events like fighting, racial tension, people dying from cigarettes, and religion. He had a good sound and he spoke clearly and enunciated, making it a pleasure to listen to. The lyrics made sense which is always a plus, the rhythm sounded solid, and his voice was good. Before you played Jurassic 5 you played a song by a similar band and I'm not sure who they were but I liked their music too, mainly because of the beats. I'm glad we've gotten to hip hop.

rhyme and punishment

I enjoyed the rapper movie more than any of the other movies we watched. I felt like it was a lot more interesting, probably because I listen to a lot of rap music. I thought it was cool how the video related going to prison to rap artists. Learning about the history of rap is cool to me and I think we should watch more videos about cool shit. The narrator was also pretty badass.... Oh, I also liked all of their rapper names they made me laugh so not only was it informative but it was funny.

School

I literally spent the entire period thinking about the question Mr A asked. What was the last thing I learned on my own? It brought me to the conclusion that school has made me fucking stupid. I don't learn anything on my own. It's actually kind of sad that the last things I've learned are full of things school forces me to learn. Im gonna make an effort to maybe not be so lazy and actually learn something.. I mean if I don't learn on my own and school ends after college then what the fuck am I going to do?


On another note I think the Ramones are annoying and I hate the song blitzkrieg bop.

Tosha bashing us

First of all if Tosha is reading this I totally feel where you're coming from and I definitely don't take it personally like some of those other guys. I don't really get where they're coming from about being mad at you because that's your opinion? I mean getting mad at someones opinion definitely doesnt make sense because people are going to believe what they want and you can't stop them.. I dunno I enjoyed the music most of them played((((not Christian))))) but that's just me. I enjoyed what he played and I think anyone can think whatever the fuck they want. Sure I didn't like some of the music that was played, and personally I wouldn't blog and call it trash but he has a right to express whatever the fuck he wants to. Also I dig his hat.

Songs I played in class

The two songs I played were 25 bucks by Danny Brown and it wasn't me by Shaggy, two of my all time favorites. The Danny brown song is from the album old and then I'm sure you know all about the shaggy song where he gets caught having an affair. I think that all of thesongs we've heard so far have been awesome except for chrisitians, of course. This is a cool activity. We should do this like every couple of weeks so we can hear new songs I think it would be really cool to do more of it.

Other peoples taste in music

I was 100% feeling that Black Sabbath song Connor played. I thought it was fucking awesome and it wasn't what I was expecting from him after we saw his show on YouTube. But definitely makes me want to go home and listen to Black Sabbath because that shit was amazing. Also I liked Gavin's Eazy E song because that song is a classic and every couple of months someone plays it and it's always awesome.

first class

So I'm gonna write a blog about food because I've been eating an excessive amount of it. I've finished a package of oreos, m&m cookies, and pita chips in the last two days. How someone can eat that much food I don't even know, but that's how I've been feelin. Literally all this course sheet and college stress has me going crazy. I haven't even been doing my blogs. It's pretty funny. I even quit video games so all I do is listen to music and chill, weird lifestyle but I see why people like it. It's simple.
