What does education have to do with it?

March 12th, 2010
  • I just came across someone asking "What does it mean when someone says 'It aint trickin' if you got it'?"

    Then as a sidenote, wrote: [in response to the smart-assed answers]: please don't be mad because im much too educated to understand such ignorance...k?...k!

    MY question is: What does being SO educated have to do with understanding the lyrics to such an 'ignorant' song/artist?

    I already have my own answer but wanted to hear what others have to say...


  • I totally agree with you.I don't speak like that though.So,I don't understand when rappers stay stuff like that.


  • Well, you're clearly educated since this question is so perfectly worded (sarcasm). However, I question the intellectual capacity of an individual who dissects lyrics that are blatantly ignorant to raise a rhetoric 'question' about the relationship between hip-hop and education. A true intellect (such as myself) is able to discern that hip-hop is very broad -- There are lyrics with much more complexity than what you chose to showcase (condescend). This is expected from pretentious assholes with a vendetta against hip-hop. If you want us to believe that you're educated based on your biased premise, I would suggest that you challenge yourself (and us) by arguing against the elite rather than the worst possible hip-hop lyrics you could find. That's too easy, and your argument is null because of it.

    It's like me saying, "Why are basketball players considered so talented? My neighbors 8 year old daughter easily makes shots, and she's terrible".

    Edit: Ahh...I see. Then I concur.
