Big up Shad K →
KJ: Why is it important for guys to get involved with girls issues?
Shad: I think it’s important a) because we’re all human beings so all our issues are connected and hinder all of us if they’re unresolved and b) because we all know how it feels when someone is willing to listen and even advocate for you instead of you having to fight for yourself all the time. It can mean and do a lot.

microaggressions:
On the show Toddlers & Tiaras, a mother was talking about her little girl who is a tomboy. She likes to hunt with her father and loves playing soccer. The mother concludes that the little girl is “part girl, part boy.” Apparently, liking soccer and hunting makes you a boy.
If gender isn’t sex, what makes you a boy or girl except for the things that society claims...

Def Racist?
I was listening to Relax this morning, and I realized that something about Das Racist’s appeal (to those who experience it) should have come as no surprise.
They are functionally an amalgam of everyone on Def Jam in the 1980s!
I am not going to make a strong case for Oran “Juice” Jones or Slayer, but as for hip-hop artists? Look at this:

– Sarah Silverman in a GQ article. Made me feel confused. (via microaggressions)
I hate when people offer analyses of rap in general who have only listened to an extremely narrow stream of it. Fresh Prince was all embarrassing stories.
