he's talking about ... ( 2 weeks ago by dannythedrone)
he's talking about more than hip hip culture. He is talking about saving humanity. He is talking about uplifting the consciousness of humanity. He is talking about using your heart to find your own path. All those names he dropped were people who turned the frequencies of our reality into songs, paintings, all art, and Love (twice) This man wants to speak out to get people to uplift each other. Notice how he doesn't mention himself during the whole piece. He is doing his best for fucking real.

way more than hip ... ( 2 weeks ago by mrwongg)
way more than hip hop culture. hip hop culture as a jump off point to the larger issue of life, purpose and meaning with some powerful name-dropping reminders of some who came before us and lived that higher purpose so that we may have the courage do the same in our own way. i think.

Excellent question! ... ( 2 weeks ago by gsread)
Excellent question! Indeed, it is impossible to point out someone elses ego without using your own. The ego, as an idea, is what separates the artist from the critic. My commentary on Saul's "poetry" is coming from the perspective of a critic. This is the central theme in T.S. Eliot's "The Sacred Wood". According, to drone81 he is "wrong" but I respectfully disagree.

i guess he mentions Rand for Objectivist Philosophy, since he's all about seeking knowledge, Objectivist thinking is another way of looking at the world and interacting with the world. its pretty existential but you can reduce the ethics of her philosophy to this one line sorta: To live, man must hold three things as the supreme and ruling values of his life: Reason, Purpose, Self-esteem" Saul Williams. Word up.
