Black Consumerism 101


People Buy What Makes Them Feel Comfortable.
Thats what your boy Birkhold said a coupla weeks ago
and that
quote stays marinating on my mind.

I thought about this while I was on BART yesterday and
I heard a young lady talking about spending $2-300
on her hair.

Now don’t get it twisted. Pun intended.
Black women INVEST in they hair.

Having our hair done makes is feel attractive, presentable
and sexy.

But, three hunned dollas? I only wondered
how solvent she was and if she was as willing
to spend as much on books for school or
classes at a community college.

But back to Birkhold. So. If we BUY what makes us feel comfortable
then, when a white kid buys 50 cent, how is that making him/her
feel comfortable?

For me HIP Hop makes me feel:
Angry, PE, Mos Def
Pensive, De La Soul
Reflective, Nas
Restless, Jim Jones
Stoopid, Turf Talk
Nerdy, Doom
Ruthless, Jay

But back to buying what makes us feel comfortable.

That would explain our affinity for RIMS, nails and weaves.

thang. Swear. I was walking down the street and I
sniffed, and I was like. “Where are the Black Berries?”

Low and behold there they were across the street growing
on the side of the freeway. Smelling like my childhood.

Bugged out right?
