I feel like I have to be really angry to have something worth saying. As I read through other blogs, there is such anger and discontent. Everyone is really spittin', yellin', cursin' mad. It's funny how people use swear words. They feel that to express their anger adequately they have to throw in a "hell" or a "damn" or the dreaded "F" word. What does all this anger accomplish? Why does an artist have to be suffering?

It seems like the key to pop culture is to embrace darkness, anger, and hatred. Instead of reaching for enlightenment our artists and intellects are clouding the truth with gray relativity. They are turning from light and attempting to block others from the clarity it provides. The most bizarre part about this, is that they are being praised for this. For lying to us.
