Brain Food from the Starlight Zone & A New Theory From S.o.n.i.c

I've been on my thinker shit today.... and came across a topic that I felt I needed to touch upon on the gulf of minds called the internet. I'm here to talk about tyranny of "cool".

As you might imagine, I got plenty of niggas and even some friends coming at me about how Sonic isnt "cool" and to drop that shit. But this isnt about my self expression. This about why "cool" is considered what it is whatever it is.

Now..... not to sound like some kind of LSD rebel fan a Jimi Hendrix concert, but society WANTS you to be "cool". Because "cool" is basically the guidelines of what you can and cant do to be accepted into groups of people around you. The desire to be "cool" severely limits the imagination of man and this is a giant problem that has plaqued the genre of rap. When one is considered "cool" he/she is followed by others that wish to achieve the same "status", which in result produces more of the same style from other people, thus losing originality. Not to be confused with "inspiration" because inspiration is the fusion of 50% influence and 51% originality and creates newer styles. Even worse this "cool" alienates anything outside of its boundries but yet drawing people in. New ideas and ideals are considered "crazy" or "outlandish" because they do not fit into the cookie cutter of the "cool" and produce alternative results and styles. Thus making the "cool" a safe zone where anybody imitating the cool is accepted.

Soon, anything outside of the "cool" scares people and this fear hinders the expansion of individuality and originality, discouraging everybody from revealing thier true thoughts and feeling because rejection. Hip hop has reached this cycle.

But there are always the "freedom fighters" that exist outside of the "cool", not because they dont nessically want to be in the "cool" but because they REFUSE to be anything but themselves. This defiance can draw attention to "freedom fighters", and eventually breaks the hold "cool" has on many artists/people, in result "de-robotizing" them from the monogomy of the "cool".

This "cool" exists in any aspect of life and can expand far out from just hip hop. Of course like there is the "cool" in any aspect of life, "freedom fighters" can be found in any aspect too.

This all is in unison to my theory, connecting the concept of the "cool" to SaTAM (the early tv show about Sonic the Hedehgog, SatAM= Saturday Morining)

The Breakdown

Robotnick Empire = "Cool"

Robots = those under the influence of the "cool"

Freedom Fighers = hip hop artists/people who arent afriad to be themselves

De-robotizing = breaking free of the "cool"/ monogamy

Robotized = becoming under the influence of the "cool"

Sonic = a freedom fighter (of course)
