So.....the release of Jay-Z newest music video "On To The Next One" has the over-analyzing, YouTube-evangelists out for blood. 

seriously people....

......if Jay-Z is the antichrist, well he better stop retiring.....and get going on that whole apocalypse thing. maybe that's what all these Blueprints are for? if the antichrist turns out to be one of the highest grossing rap artists of the past 2 decades, then i will be a little bummed. thats way too easy.

what surprises me the most is that it's Jay-frickin-Z.

of all the people in the world?

now if they were saying that tyra banks wants everyone to worship her instead of Jesus...i'd understand it a bit more. or that One Tree Hill has subliminal messaging to worship the devil...i would accept it....there is no other explanation as to why that show is still on.

Jay-Z is one of the tamest rappers out there. and while he may not identify with the Christian religion....he is hardly the antichrist. 

ok heres the awesome, beyond awesome....beautiful video that they are claiming is an offering to Satan

yep. well.....can anyone say "treatment"? the entire plotline of this video is suppose to be haunting and evil....he's talking about the ways of making money....thats evil. he's an entertainer. an actor. maybe he's a mason. who's cares? he makes art. and art is defined by the viewer. it can only ever be...what it is that the viewer wants it to be. 

ok here is the crazy analysis...

and a BETTER one. hahah

yep....on to the next one....

I'm sitting here watching Fuse's "On The Record with Lady Gaga" and found myself with the urge to (yet again) tweet about how much I adore Lady Gaga. As i went to go write my 140 characters or less post, i struggled with what to say....i realized that trying to put how i FEEL about Lady Gaga into 140 characters or less would never work. Trying to DESCRIBE Lady Gaga in 140 characters or less would never happen on its own.

When i go to say something about how amazing Lady Gaga is....I can't help but feel like all i'm doing is jumping on the bandwagon late. To be quite honest...up until about a month ago i really didn't know much about her or care. Her songs were good, i liked them, she was like every other radio star. Then Bad Romance came out and i found myself mesmerized by this being. Her video was a gift from the visionary gods. I have not respected a pop star this much since....probably Michael Jackson. The people that put her down are obviously not listening or maybe they just don't speak her language. Lady Gaga talks to us in a hypnotizing beat of metaphors. It is not for the shallow....it is for the pained.  

The Fame Monster is easily my favorite album to be released this year. It is a work of musical genius. 

As i sit here listening to Lady Gaga voice these powerful opinions...in the gentlest voice since Janet Jackson, i find myself even more enthralled. She has a beautiful mind. i will right now say that Lady Gaga is my hero...not only as a musician, but as a human being. While there is no doubt there is a tortured soul deep within her....she is full of forgiveness for this cruel world. She outwardly displays a poise and maturity that makes me respect her even more. 

Some may says she's crazy.....i say she is misunderstood. like everyone else...but we don't have to be publicly judged for it.
