No hard feelings intended

[IceMan30]

I don't mean to sound hard.
But you can't put next to zero effort into a performing arts, music, dancing or fashion contest, and be cheap, and a commercial phenomenon of low class, no skills, minimum wage people who come from bad situations..
and win in a mainstream worldly sophisticated contest where people pay thousands of dollars for the worst seats.

What FUBU, Rap and Hip Hop wins, is a detroit rap battle inside a boiler room.

It doesn't win Dancing with the Stars.
It doesn't win America, or Britain's got Talent.
It doesn't get you into ANY University's performing arts college.
It doesn't get you onto a fashion runway and it definitely wouldn't win.
It doesn't get you into a pageant.
It doesn't get you into a singing contest, because rap isn't singing.

That's what you think.

But you're behind the times.

The current thing, not the Next Big Thing but just the current thing is math metal, basically a loud, classical-based jazz where each instrument plays in a different time signature based on eighth and sixteenth notes, they all catch up to each other every so many bars...

The average cost of a pair of Nike Jordans - $150 *production cost is less than $10*
The average cost of a pair of Louis Vuitton Oh Really Pumps - $1,000

The Average cost of a Fubu Football Jersey - $30
The Average cost of a Gucci Dress - $3,000

That's what we're talking about here.

I still have absolutely no idea what you are saying... I can't even figure out what the context is.

But what you do not understand it is:

Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold
