I saw you at the family sign tour in richmond, va. last year, you rocked it. hopefully trying to see you again!

praying for you and your brother.

What I’ve found about people trying to be underground, is that they try to be deliberately abrasive with status quo ideals, and sound like absolute shit most of the time…and in some way this earns them the cool tagline: ‘underground’. People I’ve spoken too in my country don’t appear to understand that standing apart from the status quo does not necessarily mean your work is shit or that you are ‘underground’ (whatever that term/genre means these days)…but they do know that the underground is reportedly shit, and if it’s shit, that it is an underground art form and therefore cool…

From another perspective, there is a problem that’s sweeping my country and was even touched on by South Park (some episode about electronic music that sounded like, and was largely made up of the literal sound reproduction of human methane expulsion (i.e. ‘farts’ as coined by characters of South Park), commenting on the newly main-streaming Dubstep genre), is that everyone now conceives that what people, who were once revered as intelligent and insightful (old people), say is shit…soon becomes the new ‘hit sensation’…youth seem to flock to whoever their parents hate, searching for the next hit or running off some sort of ‘Romeo and Juliet Syndrome’ type social phenomenon…god knows what they’re thinking…if anything at all…

When I first heard Dubstep 3 years ago, i felt near religious about it, as there were no ‘scenesters’ to be found there…no one roofied your drink…riots and mosh pits never happened…everyone knew how to handle their liquor…and people actually liked the music not the scene…

Shits not quite the same now…Deadmau5 put the nail in the coffin for the NZ scene…NZ$2 million for one show…kids running about with star tattoos all over themselves dressed up like Richard Simmons swooning over fart noises…I knew it was over…my mother must have hated my music so much the neighbours kids, who I had been avoiding, caught onto it…my own little Haight Street had been invaded.

So anyway, 50 Cent is a legend and a fox by making you, your parents and anyone with sense, think he’s shit…and he is, but stupid people who like being bad asses and *quote* underground *end quote*/anything anyone hates, have an easy target now…he’s probably saved you from dealing with all the stupid scenesters because their all at a Fiddy show…you should thank him for all his hard work…he deserves every penny for being your best body guard by creating a ‘decoy underground’. He seems to like them or at the very least knows how to lose the stalkers following him home at night better than you and therefore milks them with greater ease than most others can because he knows how to dodge a jealous lover he’s never met that’s trying to shoot him (deep breath).

50 cent is a man of Kim Jong Il levels of propaganda appeal…if you want to be popular among kids with no artistic sense, have everyone hate you; and to make sure you’re hated by everyone, actually be worthy of the hatred, i.e. like 50 Cent…if you want to be a good artist, just carry on as per usual…

I’m pretty sure everyone still says Eminem is underground down in NZ…even though he tops the charts with every release and rocks daytime TV…man I’m lost now…there was a bar on the main road of our CBD called the London Underground, playing homage to the late punk movement that has since been resurrected in NZ…everyone’s jumping on the good ship Anything Called Underground…

…fuck my life…we’re all pack animals…or maybe it’s the Christian religious conscription down here that’s slowly wearing off…whatever it is, it’s not wearing off fast enough…

I hate Lycra, spandex, new era hats, basket ball singlets, tribal and national pride tattoos and under age girls asking you for drugs and to sneak them into bars. Fashion trends…what the fuck is a fashion trend? why would you even want to follow a fashion trend when you’re trying to be yourself…stop blending in you little snot nosed, gangster, pimps. It’s not working, you just made being a ‘bad-ass’ the last thing anyone wants to be…James Dean is probably turning in his grave. 

I reckon Fiddy killed off the gang culture of the US though by invading it with white chicks and pre-pubescent teenage boys trying to earn gang colours…there’s always a silver lining…it’s called Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

World peace mother fuckers!!!!
