In which I trash some nice young people.
I'm going to post something because if I don't I might as well just let this thing die.
In keeping with my previous promise, I have been listening to rap/hip-hop over the last couple of weeks. I just got this album from 2000 by the Black-Eyed Peas, called Elephunk. They seem like nice young people, but they're really not speaking to my concerns, since they're basically about getting out on the dance floor and shaking various parts of one's anatomy (an activity I only indulge in in the strictest confidentiality). Consequently, the beats are fast and furious in that kinda euro-dance style. I'm thinking Aqua, maybe, or Basement Jaxx.
Be that as it may, what were they thinking about when they wrote a song called "Let's get retarded"? I've been known to get stupid myself, for various reasons, and, what's more, to frankly revel in it, but I had a choice. And as stupid as I was, I knew the difference between behaving heedlessly and Down's Syndrome.
