Lyceum Recordz was started in 2010 with a dream that I could one day popularize Greek philosophy and publicize my scientific studies as a sociologist. The aim of this was so that the planet I live on, and the country I grew up in, would be a better place for the generations who are to come after me. However, that is only a dream and the realty of the world is a much less romantic. The problem with wanting to help the world and being a 'good samaritan' is that peace, love, and unity doesn't get a lot of attention, get taken seriously, or make a lot of money.
So what's a philosopher to do? Well, after a reading of Money Talks: Support Lyceum Recordz you will see that in order to make anything of myself and the message I wish to disseminate, I have to make money! In America the economic model is capitalism; so to pay for production, promotion, and distribution it (naturally) takes a financial element to support and expand. This is why I say--in a very real sense--"money is speech and love isn't free..." because the more money one can accrue the louder the speech becomes!
So the question I have to ask myself is: "In my genre of music (hip-hop) what is going to sell a lot of copies?" The truth is that America, as much as it rants and raves, (absolutely) craVes sensationalism, sex, drugs, and violence... the culture just can't get enough! It adores alcohol, supports a multi-billion dollar porn industry, and seeks violent media content. And that's why you, whoever you are, like rap! Rap does not teach violence, it glorifies it; and you listen to rap because it's violent, not despite it!
In my mind, there is no question about what I have to do. But, does the ends justify the means? Regardless of if it does or not, I have already convinced myself it does so you should not stand in my way or I will run you over! Look, I'm 25, have no girlfriend, no health care, struggle to pay rent every month, am overworked, and underpaid. As far as I'm concerned, I will say whatever I want, whenever I want, and however I want because I literally have nothing to loose. So, if and when you get tired of me being mean, aggressive. and/or "hateful," understand I don't care and have no motivation or (real) reason to change my rhetoric for anyone. I hope your offended; so you know how I feel! There's nothing nice in this world, and least of all; me!
I'm a product of my environment, and until the situation changes and I get the respect and payment I feel I deserve, I'mma gonna become a tyrant and make a dictatorial mockery of society, 'your' position in it, and it's sickness(es). Fear is love, power is peace, and my rule... unity. There is no truth, only my will. The grace of Apollo has dissolved and beginning a rebirth into the pejorative sentiments of E$. If greed is good, then anger is just, violence is wise, and hate the vehicle of prosperity.
I don't want to stop the pain I feel, but only inflict it upon another to a greater degree so that mortals will know and remember their position in the world which I reside. Empathy is the only form of sight your soul can see--and I only feel suffering--so I will take everything you hold dear, and crush it... because it will be ease my shattered dreams and ease your mind from the fictitious world you perceive to be real. It must be known that compared to E$ you are intellectually inept... and your sorrow brings me joy! Indeed, the only way I think I can be normal again is if you are forced to cry in agony and repent your delusional framework. Painful screams of torture and regret make me only wish for more victims that will howl in despair so that the mesh of horrific shouting will coalless into the music my mind endears. I want, so badly, to watch suffering in shame!
Death does not scare E$, he welcomes it; though, I hope it finds me soon before I ever have a chance to love again... because right now, all I see is pain, all I bring is fear, all I want is money, and what I crave is recognition and success! You should not pity me, but yourselves; for this is what you want, this is what we allow, this is what we seek, and this... is what my society has made me. I am merely trying to help America celebrate the accomplishment!
