Kanye dropped 'Bully' March 28 and I listened so some of them cursorily, then just let YouTube play whatever was next without paying attention and listened a bunch of them tons of times. Looked forward to the next day to put it on headphones and listen to it all. Which is what I'm doing right now.

The last bunch of albums I listened but didn't really care, except Ghosts maybe. This album too isn't that exciting but it's got so much good in it, and I kind of love it. Kanye isn't the smartest but he's pretty smart, isn't that educated, but he's never been afraid, and that might be what lets him always have access to the truth, or maybe he's most afraid of being weak ie not having access to the real truth.

The families Kanye and Tupac came from. So often teachers, social workers or activists. M.I.A., Little Silz, Lauren Hill. Want me to name you a city which is richer than yours but has a much lower GDP?

If people are (serious, sincere, applied) teachers or (non ignorant) social activists, should they just have confidence their kids have a decent chance? Can you say something you can't say about the children of bankers, businessmen, politicians? ... The real farmers and stewards of people, who care about something that also cares.
