@Inna I don't think it's conscious either. In fact most of what people do isn't. But it's a combination of wanting to feel pretty, to feel protected and to feel secure; if you translate that into a relationship the easiest outcome is becoming a possession. A very distant second is building your self esteem and dedicating yourself to a lucrative career. But with men like Mike what woman wouldn't want to stay home? @Michael Bazzy Wow. @Trekman I also love your sis. And I wouldn't cross her, not in her Wrangler, and certainly not in that monster of a Toyota. @Chirine I miss the 90s. The 90s were our 70s, ya know?

@Karl
I liked Emenem lots and for years! But I just got tired of the whole killing the mom and singing to the daughter and baby talkin the details of how the murder gets done. There is a darkness (and a whole language) that makes rap the art it is (I admit some is really impressive art), but beneath it all, it’s just sick.

I can still move my head to the beat when it plays and appreciate a good sequence of well put together figure of speeches, but overall, rap doesn’t do it for me anymore.

And correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t there a rap dance back in the early 90′s? You know, that “I’m runnin’ but I’m still here” dance? That’s the rap I’m talkin about ! When the pants were just getting baggy and below the butt and the hair was growing tall with names shaved on the occiput.

*shivers*

I don’t miss the 80′s but remembering the days still makes me smile…

@Karl Not sure I agree with you about people wanting to be a possession. At least, it's definitely not a conscious desire people have. But the bling lifestyle is definitely the key here. Sad what some are willing to give up for that; namely, their integrity! @Michael Bazzy Good to know. Will keep that in mind for future reference!

blond? wrangler?? you saying something Karl?
well I knew one person, that blond had a pentagram on board. If you mess with the car or the the girl, or if you drive in a way that might upset the driver in that wrangler. you would be a dead man.
And no, that wouldn’t be RAP or hiphop that you’d be hearing from the car, it would be an amazing solo by Randy Rhoads.
I love my sis!
