Food for thought.

What's to explain my loss of appetite today? All i've seemed to crave is music & words. That's all i've been doin, all day. I could go for some coffee, at an open mic night right now. Listening to different songs expands my outlook on how the artist feels about certain issues & topics. I couldn't write to rhyme, i'd rather write to express. Just to get this stuff off my chest. Or maybe? lol. hmm. Yesterday I was amused by the statement Tyler made towards me. She said that she doesn't listen to what i listen to. then I was sharing with her that Terrance & I share close to the same interest in types of music. & I just thought about how alot of african americans, or so to speak, "black youngins" all listen to the same thing. Gogo huh? What's it saying? Stuff I already dun heard, since it's basically just remakes of previously recorded songs with just a lil extra added beat. That's my definition there for ya. Some songs are alright, but the others can be listened to by someone else. I'd rather hear the original song. I like music with actual lyrics. & I know you're thinking that all songs have lyrics, but I mean a song that tells a story, or actually says something. People like Tupac who talk about their lifestyles & such..

idk, just some food for thought.
