3. listened to it 3x's. chilled first. 2nd with 15 yr old son. i swear he had tears at the end,

as i did. and he is turning his head away. he thought it damn good too. he told me. mom, that makes edmund and i right. we go so far, and then people start fighting back.

had my 17 (almost 18 yr old). so so so impressed. that a rapper. that he was all over it. that he stayed true.

thanks redq, i really appreciate this.

by the 3rd time i was crying at the beginning, lol

6. It is rather heartbreaking.

Encouraging and hopeful though, that it is being noticed more and more. Slowly, but surely.

I love that he made it so easy to see the caricaturization involved.

The caricaturization of women as sex objects is so tragically commonplace, though. Rap videos are but one tiny segment of the parodying that goes on.

10. actions speak louder than words...

Interesting that the effigy of capitalism is repeatdly shown and portrayed as the motivation behind these bad influences. Yet not mentioned.
Milgram experiment anyone ?
