Ok....Anybody on my friends list should know by now what I'm about. I'm just an average guy who likes to have a laugh every now and then. But I just got a shoutbox response that asked me, "Why do you act the way you do? Aren't you black? You have all these cartoons and weird pics, that's not black."
Now I'm not gonna name-drop or expose anybody here, but I bet they'll get wind of this blog. Yes I'm black, been black all my life. And yes, some things that are assumed a black guy does, I do. HOWEVER, I am deeper than anybody would even believe. Hip-Hop is my favorite form of music, but I love Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Stevie Wonder, Jimi Hendrix, Elton John (his older stuff), Depeche Mode...etc.
I like the cartoons and pictures I put up. I have a very wide range sense of humor, and I enjoy different opinions and views on life. I refuse to put myself in some small "box" defining me as a black man because I do this and that, and don't do this or that. I never would treat anybody else like that, and I would expect the same. Now the person who told me this, happens to be a white woman. Now did I come at her with her being white, who enjoys strictly rap, types using slang and ebonics, and all of that? No. She's an adult, she can carry on any way she wants to.
However, unless you don't want others to judge you on your choices on how you express yourself, I would suggest that you don't judge others. I am a Hip-Hop fiend, but I probably know more about other forms of music than most people. And I refuse to not listen to GOOD music, just because it's not rap or r&b. Open up your mind a little, then you might meet others like me. Regardless of what you think I should do or be, I am a unique individual, and want to be treated as such.
But hey, it's just my opinion.....my word ain't law.....
