I've said before I have no interest in hip-hip but that does not exclude me from reading anyone's journal entry, no more than one about jazz, punk or big band would, even though I am not at all into those genres. I like to see how people write, and I must say Surell, you certainly write well. I don't know the album (though have heard others discussing it) but the fact that you could widen a simple premise about a stripper's death into something about Cleopatra is nothing short of amazing.
A great, insightful and overall enjoyable read. Please post more regularly: I'd like to read more of what you have to say, and I'm sure you have plenty.
