Some of my bros decided to start a post-pre-post-meta-ironic core rap group. I think the concept behind it is that they are 'not black', 'privileged', and 'get' global issues. I think they are going to build a myspace with powerful graphic images that say controversial stuff, possibly parodying hiphop culture. I think they consider themselves 2 b 'artists' but they are also trying to 'rage against the local scene' and 'how fucking stale' it has become.

Yall. What's the deal with 'modern hiphop'? What is the state of 'hipster rap'? Will bands like 'The Cool Kids' ever 'catch on'? Would u rather watch these bros or M.I.A., or are they 'basically the same thing' except MIA has 'better samples'/a higher 'production value'?

Do yall have any 'wannabe rap tribes' in ur local scene who play at art shows?
Do u think that they are 'being ironic' about 'trying to be a band' without the emotional + personal commitment of 'being a band'?

ughh.... so disenfranchised with hiphop/the scene/rap/art/everything.

glad that 'the real slim shady' is back with a brand new gimmick to shake up the scene [via autotune]
