Look, only the real prevail. I'd rather make a slow quarter than a fast nickel and I'd rather be hated for being real than loved as a fake. If you're a consumer, stop listening to the radio. If you're in radio, get REAL music in and stop with the gay club and ignorance music. You have a tool at your disposal. Elevate people's minds or kill yourself.

when you're walking down a sunny street on a beautiful day while you're in love. Then, you witness a car go awol and pin someone against a wall, cutting them in half, after which the driver promptly pulls up a sawed-off shotgun and blows his or her own brains out. Then the police come, rob you and rape your lover in front of you while everyone watches and no one helps. Harsh, brutal, deranged, and all so real.
