I ain't perfekt but take it from Me Excerpts X - the Conclusion
My BLAK PEEPO! Los Angeles had another earthquake today. Though not big, when will it hit? Not much to say today but KEEP VIGILANT of all that goes on. As this is the last installment of the excerpts from my book, I ain't perfekt but take it from Me, I hope that y'all have enjoyed & will support when the link goes up. HOLLA BLAK!
KRS1 told us that if you don’t know the author, you don’t know the book that you’re reading. Imagine the power of all of us not showing up for work for 1 day. JUST 1 DAY!!! Imagine MANCOTTING X-Mas. Do y’all really wanna break that yoke on OUR backs? THEY selling what WE buy to profit on this MADE UP HELLIDAY yo! Like I said don’t discount something just because you never heard it before. If you knew the truth would you share it or hide it?
NEXT QUESTION! If it’s getting you negative results, then why are you still partaking of it? The before mentioned quotes cover this but this time, let’s get into this just a little bit deeper. You see, I believe that instrumental questions have instrumental words & in this case, the word is negative. I love it when our youth use slang to truly define our condition in this present existence. A word that I hear constantly used in the NYC area is “twisted” & it mean something that isn’t right. It is the “correct” term to use as the world that we live in today is very twisted. Case in point, the U.S population consists of 6% of the world yet uses 25% of the natural resources that almost exclusively comes from other parts of the world. Caucasians make up less than 10% of the worlds population & yet they control virtually all aspects of this world. It’s gotten so “twisted” as a matter of fact, that ANYTHING is positive as long as it gets Paper In My Pockets (P.I.M.P). Let’s bring it from a Hip Hop perspective though. Pick a rapper, any rapper. We got MC Mac Shit & he start off as a local Krakk dealer. As usually happens, Mac gets into a beef because he’s out there huggin the blokkk & as we all know, shit happens during beef. A soldier on Mac’s team catches a bad one, is hospitalized & barely survives with his life. This is Hood Rules so of course retaliation is a must. Mac’s team meet’s, plots & schemes with an affiliate crew to get blak at his culprits & from this point on, it’s the same plot as Kung Fu flicks, only with guns. As they prepare, little does Mac’s crew know that this rival crew has a double agent that is giving that other crew important information. This crew comes around looking for Mac & his team, but little do they know that Mac has a court date. Two of Mac’s boys catch a combined 18 slugs & another runs for his life never to be seen in the light of day in that Hood again. Now Mac has a very small circle of associates (Hood Rule #789) & is scared to death but won’t leave the Hood so as to keep his “image”, which is everything to him. Mac now spends most of his time indoors & really starts thinking about that big book of rhymes that he has compiled through all of the years. He ain’t touch those books in months! Hey, Mac even remembers that he was handed a business card by a friendly D.A who heard him kick a hot 16 verse “Gangster” bar. Mac also remembers that this guy has other peeps with contacts in the “Music Industry.” “What the F?” says Mac & calls him. Soon Mac is rubbing elbows with some of RAP’S finest who also were connected by the same D.A. Now Mac is kinda nice but there a thousand other MC’s out there who will never make these connections. However, Mac has a jail record, street credibility, lawyers with power & a willingless to rhyme about the fast life without consequences. Mac shit gave up the Krakk game for the RAP game & the rest is HIS story. His home boy who ran scared becomes his hype man. Mac shit is now free to tell his story to the world without teaching other youngsters the right way to “get that money.” His take is “I’m not out in the streets anymore doing that but my life is positive getting this paper nigga! Why you hatin dogs?” Well let me play a little word game with you; if you took an AIDS test, a tuberculosis or cancer test & it came out positive, would those results seem positive to your mind? A positive can be negative. To rephrase, if your son got 1 million dollars from getting shot & as a result your nephew was killed as a bystander, would that be positive? Unfortunately for some that answer is yes! It kind of reminds me of the move to get reparations. If the US gave you X amount of dollars, would it appease you for the millions who suffered for over 500 years of the most brutal atrocities known to man? Would most Blaks want to open skkkools, museums & reculture ourselves to our original selves or would we continue to give Mr Benz, Mr Nike, Mr Hennessy & all of those Hotel chains that money right back instead of building our own infrastructure? Where’s the spirituality at? Not everyone works off of the physikkkal totally. If you ain’t livin off of the land, it’s not real. WE ARE LIVING IN AN IMAGINATED REALITY & WE HAVE CHOSEN TO MAKE IT REAL. THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS IS PHYSIKKKAL MATTER. So reader again, I ask, what is your idea of negativity? Are you a drug kingpin enslaving your Hood to a substance that degrades members of your family? Are you redefining words that retain their original energy & label everyone that resembles you? But blak to Mac shit. After he makes his 1st Album & receives massive promotion, you hear him 7,000 times a day on ya radio. Impressionable youngsters wanting to be like Mac, download his albums in droves while suburban whites fascinated by the newest phenomena buy the album, to the tune of 7 million sold. He is now the man as he’s EVERYWHERE! Because our thinking is so twisted, we equate “manufactured popularity” with greatness & follow the shepherd to the slaughter. Of course the “Man” is now rich as this is a system of Pimps & Hoes. Instead of raging against the machine, Mac shit now gets his crew in the door & they usually consist of younger dudes from the same Hood Mac is from that are (1) Loyal (2) not nicer than Mac & therefore (3) controllable. All of these albums have Mac’s signature sound on them. These albums keep Mac hot until Mac . . . . just ain’t hot anymore. As the crew’s popularity increases, the talent decreases. Mac then makes album #2 & sells over a million copies but for Mac, these numbers are disappointing. To the label, it is considered a failure. So before Mac hangs up his mic (while making guest appearances on the Diva of the Month’s hot single), he rushes his 3rd album but before he retires, he signs up seasoned vets in the game to form a Super Group. Mac scales down his marketing money on this album, gets a massive marketing push by the electronikkk media, all the right magazines & even has a cameo in the new blockbuster movie, Super Melinated Peeps. This album puts Mac in the forefront before he retires. Mac can now fall back & collect money that his roster brings in. That is until, one of his rappers, Beefaton feeling bitched up & pimped, starts sniping, becoming unloyal & being a general nuisance at the label. This upstart get’s kicked off of the label & starts a back & forth war that Willy Lynch spoke of (new vs old). Dissing on the airwaves soon takes place (promoted by the most popular radio stations) & eventually Mac & his former rapper meet up at an industry album release party. As the sale of recorded media wanes, Mac comes up with philanthrophy as his new way to go teamin up with other mega stars who will be b-listed soon. The story ends & finish it for yourself as we have seen this scenario played over & over in NY, LA (State & the City), Philly, Miami, Houston, Chicago & in any Hood USA, “set up by the devil as he looks & he smiles.” Is this a healthy rivalry? Is this extreme jealousy? All of these things have happened, are happening & will continue to happen if we don’t watch out. AYO, GOSIPP KILLS! This is happening as well with young brothers & sisters EVERYWHERE. A beautiful young sister that I know told me that when her daughter gossips, she punishes her. So to finish this segment, why do you keep doing it if it keeps you getting negative results? Are the past few scenarios I described negative or positive? Is getting money all there is to it no matter what? Marinate on that my brothers & sisters.
Y'all know who I am & what I do. If ya wanna get at me, hit me at the e-mail, bennyblacko@yahoo.com or on Face Book as Blak Smith (Blak Smiff). The ride has been GREAT & WE at b2a, look forward to continuing hittin y'all with the HEAT. Peace & thanks for the LUV!
