This was Eveything 💥
The "Buffalo Gals" music video encapsulates what I meant by "...the innovation in Hip-Hop was primarily driven by its diversity." It features Latino, Black, and White Breakers and Graff artists and women, who, by the way, aren't being sexualized. I'd be remiss if I didn't add that the song was produced by a British punk rocker named Malcolm McLaren and featured the World's Famous Supreme Team rapping and scratching. FYI, they were a part of the five percent nation of Islam. "Buffalo Gals" literally shows how authentic Hip-Hop by the early 1980s included Religion, Race, Gender, and Ethnicity. If Hip-Hop were purely "Black culture," it would have been birthed somewhere in the South, Georgia, the Carolinas, or something. But it wasn't. Hip-Hop exists because of the unique social, political, and economic circumstances and the vast mix of cultures in NYC, particularly the Bronx. If you lack the wisdom to evaluate information, you'll resist the truth, in my words. I lived what I just wrote, though, so whether you accept it doesn't make a difference because I saw it happen.

Apart from the son on the run from the family and the brother on the run from the FBI.
The Royal Family put on a public show of unity and stability at yesterday’s celebrations of the King’s official birthday. My phone reception was terrible so I couldn’t send these at the time but here are a few images from Horse Guards and the crowd outside the palace.

Does any other country in the world ( apart from Russia - which lost 27 million soldiers and civilians and at no point after 1941 was fighting any less than 4/5 of the German army) bang on about a war that finished 79 years ago ? Were we still banging on about the Crimean war in 1933 or celebrating Victory over the Zulus in 1950

Media outlets got fat in the Trump years treating his presidency like a reality show and then boring old Joe Biden won and <poof> the revenue streams dried up b/c he doesn't fire people via tweet, thumb his nose at our allies, or play footsie with dictators. They need Trump back

I see that Nigel Farage is now consorting with pop stars such as Rod Stewart. What are they talking about here? Getting high on skunk? Recording a wrap song together? Apples? Jizz rates? Varieties of stew? Croc colours? Conker rash? Mr Farage I pity you.😔
