[OneNationUnderCanada]

What kind of mic is that?

[glassEyeballs]

@OneNationUnderCanada It is a Shure SM-48. I recorded my entire first album with that mic...

@glassEyeballs Thank you, I now have another rapper to look forward to listening to

alongside grey:)I' have heard someone argue that race is just skin pigmentation, cultural baggage and assumptions. Do you agree ?

[glassEyeballs]

@philosageify Kind of. That was my mindset for a while, when I recorded this video. But skin color does actually correlate with ancestry, and different populations can actually be genetically different. For example, people of African descent have higher incidence of Sickle Cell. There's nothing INHERENTLY different about races, but race can correlate to a distinct genetic group.

So... in some cases, race actually can be meaningful. But it's becoming increasingly meaningless; I try to ignore it.

I live in Atlanta, and I've seen you perform. After watching this, I am sure I will never support you again. Everyone is entitled to their beliefs, but calling an entire group of people "Bitch" because of their beliefs, and insulting their god gives me the impression you are a hateful person. Slam poetry is about raising Consciousness, right? Awareness and your voice in this song are mutually exclusive. I wish you the best.

[glassEyeballs]

That all being said, though, I certainly respect your right to not support my message. I find it increasingly difficult to support increasingly evangelical art, so I do understand

@glassEyeballs i hear u.race is a complicated issue i feel stuck in position ofnot wanting be naive about the role race plays in history and in general human interaction but at the same time not wanting to be paranoid and foster negative views of my felow human beings.

@glassEyeballs hit em with that rationality and they dont know what to say back. Get'em, im feeling your raps and intellect, we need more people like you.Black,white hispanics everybody need to do some critical thinking, because right now as far as im concerned we living in the matix,a false reality. A schizo is someone with false belief that dont deal in the real world,{delusional}

[ErrorProne]

Oh daaaamn.

I only wish you could come to DFW for a show.
