Them big words ain’t cool…

This brotha gets the upmost, and wholehearted respect for this track, ‘Dumb it down’ is a confirmed joint off off his upcoming album “The Cool” dropping this November. I seriously can’t remember how often I’ve had to bring up those 3 words to arbitrary ignoramuses that I have to converse with on a weekly basies. The prime example I have is from a certain female I used to date, and she was stuck on believing that stupidity was cool… Now you tell me, since when was being an idiot fly? And i’ve never for once considered myself to be that eloquent, maybe more so then the average bear, but I personally know folk that religously avoid 3+ syllable words at all cost. Just like Superman to Kryptonite. So I dumb it down for em’, but they’ll surely know I’am. Anways, heres something to ponder about this track, pay close attention to the two different indivduals who tell Lu to dumb down his content, its real significant…

Yo, This is easily the one of the realest songs I’ve ever heard, like on some dead presidents shit. When the white dude started talking, I was like “Oh, shit, stop playing” My face started tingling and shit. And I understand what you mean by people acting like being dumb was cool. In middle school and high school people would try to slide me for getting high scores on test, etc. etc., but like they said in a Penny Arcade comic: “They might treat you like crap in here, but outside in the real world, we run shit”
