no groupie
ok its been abt a week or so and i’m sitting here with nothing but time on my hands. i knew this mike jack thing was getting out of hand. i heard that yesterday 12 people committed suicide because of his death. seriously? i just dont get it. call me callous call me whatever but i’m not changing my screen name, my avatar, the way i dress, holding a midnight vigil & damn sure not going to commit suicide because this freak is dead. i am very sorry that he passed especially due to the mysterious circumstances surrounding his demise. but lets call it what it is. he was a freak. dont give me the vitaligo (sp?), or the he never had a childhood foolishness either. if you didnt have a childhood u might still be childish in ur late 20s hell i’m still childish in my late 30s. 50 year old sane black men do NOT sleep in the same bed with little white boys. folks are so quick to jump on the rrah but even quicker to give this cat mike a free pass. i do think he was one of the most influential musical artists of the past half century. no doubt about that. i also think r.kelly is just as influential and important even more so culturally. what abt bob marley? no one remember the ass whippins he gave his wife? the adultery? yet he’s worshipped as an icon. if u gonna crucify r.kelly u damn sure better nail him next to mike & bob. r kelly had a video tape, mike jack had more than 1 accuser. how many times did his nose fall off? his skin was whiter than most white people i know. folks are saying he never denied his blackness. maybe on paper. his humanitarian efforts in africa, for the naacp, etc. but in public u look like a clown. i even read someone say he had nose job cuz someone told him he had a black nose. um, that wipes out all his efforts to portray himself as black. i was such a huge fan of his earlier work. but once he started flipping out, dancing on cars outside the courthouse, and sharing the jesus juice and happy pills with baby panks i knew it was a wrap. i remember the 6th grade camping trip. this girl said if i performed beat it in the talent show she’d kiss me behind the trees when no one was around. i had my red & black jacket. i won that talent show with my best shomon impression ever. that chick never kissed me by the way. lol. i got her back real good at the end of the school year. but anyway. i’m just baffled i guess by the way people choose their heros or who they worship. i just cant get with the whole groupie thing. and if ur killing urself cuz a singer died ur agroupie.
obviously bored
