College Dropout

As I drink in my morning dose of black coffee (I love black coffee, can't help it), I swear, I think I should- or I'm going to start writing about music more often now (as if I already don't haha) in this blog of mine because most of my entire life is so consumed in it. My life is like a forever looping soundtrack. I've thought a lot about writing about music for quite some time now (even when I have written a number of posts pertaining to this particular subject already) or having posts of certain playlists that spark something in me for the moment. But then, if I really do embrace this idea, my entry activity would probably skyrocket through the roof all the way to the milkyway and back haha. And I wouldn't be able to stop. But, would that be such a bad thing? I don't think so.

Anyway, I started re-listening to Kanye West's albums last night- starting with College Dropout; I like to go in consecutive order with things- and man, does it bring back some really good memories from the past. You know, how you can hear a familiar song and it just pushes you back in time to that very moment and emotion? How one little beat or verse can make you re-live a specific interval from the past- whether it be good or bad of course. And then somehow your entire mood is changed and lifted- given if it's a good reminiscing.

And for me, these are good times. (But the thing is, anything having to do with music is a good thing) So I'm left with a tingly and fantastic sensation of warmth and fuzziness, as well as an elated and frenzied delectation of being in a dream-like yet conscious state as I pass through my day and its obilgatory routine. I feel that right now and I can't get enough. I love it.

Having jump started the morning off just perfectly, I feel like I'm so well equipped to tackle on the world. Not something I feel often- so, major score.

Haha, see what I mean about how I can go on for days when caught up in a musical colloquy?
Maybe I should dedicate posts to certain songs I have on replay that move my soul/heart/entire being for this amazing prime juncture of existence. (Hmm, not that I haven't been doing so already? But then again I'm constantly circling around myself)

And see what music does to me? You just don't know. Seriously, it is another addiction- but I would say it's a superior one. A non-abusive drug that is capable of a wonderful sort of healing and therapy that can create magic through inspiration and relativity. It puts life in perspective, yes? Yes.

Anyway, I digress and have run away as always from my intentional motive and topic.

I forgot just how good the album College Dropout was. It is so damn good! I mean I hate Kanye West with a passion- when I say this I mean the person he is, or at least his persona that he has created and portrayed, obviously through the media since, who can say who a person really is- but his music is undeniably excellant. I swear, I've said this countless times before, everything he touches seems to turn to sparkling and scintillating gold. True, with time his wordplay and lyric ability has diminished, but his beats are still just as strong as ever. All his albums are amazing and they each add a different element collectively to his discography. (Oh my god, I cannot believe I am discussing Kanye West- the major prick- haha but no, I am not praising him, but praising his musical work- so that makes it okay!)

But by the by, the lyrical work in College Dropout is amazing (and it doesn't hurt that it totally takes indulgence in my other secret love- hm how I seem to have an infinite amount of those- for comical rapping, I do this out of fun and not seriousness haha- it makes life more interested no? And you know me, I always like to make things and things to be mega interesting- I can't help my nature)- as well as his other albums- with in my opinion the exception of My Beautiful Dark And Twisted Fantasy. I mean the album is great, but truth be told, the lyrics immensely suck! But, the beats are utterly amazing. So props to that, still a great album. You have to admit, his collaborations have been money.

Wow, I really love music and discussing about it. Har har. Fantastic start of the day. Definitely set the precedent for mornings to come. Holla!
