Thanks for that bit of high culture, IS. Wolvarine is quite the crooner.

SSome how singing about hookers, hoes, drug dealers and dead bodies all while flashing the "C" for crips just doesn't seem to do much inspiring. How much blue can a person wear?

You know whats very interesting is how so many people claim to be "Christians". Ask yourself this question: What would Jesus do? Would Jesus love those people he speaks of? What this guy is saying is that he loves Detroit and that the city has its crime and vices and other problems....but he loves his city notwithstanding.

The reason that I posted this video is because is shows that there are people in Detroit that love it despite all its problems. Regardless of the problems.....they have pride, notwithstanding.

Yes....it is high culture.

WWJD? I believe he would say go and sin no more...not make them poster children for what is wrong with an area and say __I LOVe it even though it is all ***** UP...
Somehow, just maybe, I would like to think he would try and fix the problem and not hold them high as examples of what is wrong--as if it don't matter--cause all is good dispite the sin...that is the "christian" thang..

In reality, a thug is a thug. Throwing crip (done in RED intentionally) "C's" and wearing enough blue to choke a U of M grad (where's the MAZE?) is gangster through and through...and nowhere can people find that acceptable...then again there are people who rationalize and expain the reasons for drive bys and killings simply because life is tough and that is just the way life on the street is when one is on the edge and unemployed.

So long as people are willing to accept deviant behavior ( aka Kilpatrick and Young) as being better than the alternative (which alternative is worse than Kawamee?) and at least this trash is our trash (leave it alone don't offer suggestions to improve the trash) then the cycle will continue to suck the life out of everyone involved.
No matter how you say it, the emperor has no clothes, and gangstas and muders do not make a happy environment.

Which one reflects the position of gangsta crips / bloods?
Rhetorical I know...

High culture is a term, now used in a number of different ways in academic discourse, whose most common meaning is the set of cultural products, mainly in the arts, held in the highest esteem by a culture. In more popular terms, it is the culture of an elite such as the aristocracy or intelligentsia.

It is contrasted with the low culture or popular culture of, variously, the less well-educated, barbarians, Philistines, or the masses.
