Whats Hot or What's Now?
Thursday, February 26, 2009 by J.D. , under Culture
We often find ourselves trying to be involved with whats current and not with whats relevant. Dressing in the latest fashion, downloading the latest song, being consumed with whats right now, and not whats right is an American staple. For some reason if you haven't heard the new 50 track that dropped 30 seconds ago, your not cool. We follow Hollywood trends of fashion and style like it's gospel. Evaluate things on your own and don't be a follower because your favorite rapper co signed something. Everyone should do their own thing. Dress in what YOU think is fly, not what Kanye said is fly. I'm sure Kanye isn't looking to us for fashion or music advice. He does his own thing. And that's why he has been able to be so successful, by being bold, different, and more importantly himself. Lupe Fiasco's The Cool was partially based on a comment by Dr. Cornel West saying, "The things that we think are cool now in the future will be uncool." Don't get caught up in the hype. Be yourself.
