give credit where it is due.

I am sure you have ready every blog and seen every angle on beat street and black boy that a teenager could think up, and I am sure your getting a little bored of it. So I  am going to switch things up for you and maybe introduce you to some new music. Now if you frequent music blogs I am sure you have heard about the group from L.A. called odd future. As a warning everything about this group is vulgar X rated and some of it is just disgusting but thats what I've come to love about them. Its so good to have a group that doesn't sensor themselves because they are afraid that they will sell less albums because if they have been trying to they aren't doing a good job. I am proud to say that I have known about them for a while now and am not just catching on after they are starting to make it onto a much larger stage than they are on now. The more you buy into the music that they are throwing at you the more you start to like it and the more you want to listen to it. Maybe the most impressive part of it though is that the leader of the group, wolf haley, tyler the creator whatever you want to know him as, he makes most of the beats that the whole group raps on. The group is starting to come into the extremely lacking pop culture of my generation. um. this relates to beatstreet because they were both the pop culture of the time and while we like to think that they are polar opposites the way people express themselves as an individual goes against grain it creates a taboo that the masses glom onto and try to commercialize but hopefully odd future doesn't give in and keep doing what they do.
