Patience and Hip Hop

Patience... a key trait to life. Something that I'll be needing for a little while. A decision made today didn't make me sad at all, surprisingly. In fact, I was very happy. I can't put my finger on it, but I just couldn't be majorly sad. I'm kind of hoping for my future to come by faster. I want to know what it has in store for me.


Hip Hop... a lifestyle. Today going to the NW Hip Hop Convention up in Seattle, I learned a thing or two about hip hop in general. For one thing--thug (True Hip-Hop Under Ground). Didn't think it was originally like that. Other things like hip hop is liberating and that mainstream hip hop is more of like a mask that hides what is the truth. There are artists out there like G.O.W.E. (Gifted On West East), a local talent, who live hip hop, but don't talk about sex, drugs, girls, etc. He raps about the truth and HIS life. I really respect the artist that spoke today. But that's kind of what I saw today in a nutshell.
