Happy St Patrick's Day everyone,
I know you are all wearing green
And getting drunk.
I don't really drink,
It just does not appeal to me.
Never really has.
I don't like having something,
Change my brain,
Make me act different than I would,
Under normal circumstances.
Maybe I am straight edge
At heart?
It's not that I never drink,
It is just a rare occurrence.
Usually reserved for the one week
I go on vacation.
It has started to happen more,
But it is never going to be an everyday thing.
And I try to avoid excess in most cases anyway.
I did see The Batman
Two times, in two days,
But that is mostly an outlier.
And 6 goddamn hours in a theater.
Oh yeah, I released a song this week.
It's hard to talk about without also talking about the man,
And well, the man is a crazy person.
I am of course referring to Kanye West.
Between a divorce playing out in public,
And feuds with everyone from
Pete Davidson to
Spotify and Apple.
Yeah, he is clearly not okay.
I assume most people will side with Kim
Because he sided with Trump,
Has a history of crazy behaviors,
Is known for saying outlandish things,
And is clinically mentally unstable.
But he is also very talented and driven individual.
Shaping hip hop for a decade or more.
Branching out into shoes too.
That is the part of the man I find intriguing.
That is the man, I am inspired by.
That is the man, I wrote the song about.
In no terms am I saying that I agree with him
On anything and everything.
Nor do I wish to condone the actions.
We can try to sympathize,
Or pretend that we know what is happening,
Based on reporting in the media.
But they are so far above us on the social ladder
That we will never really understand them.
Kim makes a living by living.
Cameras have followed her for 15 plus years.
And she has the nerve to tell us,
That we just need to work.
Not understanding goes both ways.
This has nothing to do with my song,
But it is what I have been thinking about
For the last few weeks.
I will probably continue to think about this
Every time I see the trailer for the Kardashians
Or see the newest post from Kanye on Instagram
That he will promptly delete.
Um go listen to the song?
Please...
