“UGH I AM SO CONFLICTED ABOUT THE BLING RING!!!! I will see it obvs but I feel like Sofia is going to strip all the grit out of it? Like one of the boys lived in Reseda, there is no way she’s going to be able to capture that ethos. It’s going to be Spring Breakers for white 20somethings who can’t handle Harmony Korine.Angela on everything important.

Yeah, I have no idea why poor-spirited people of all (other) races and ethnicities would strive to be ‘white’. They should just be themselves because that’s who they are, and we’re all post-racial and would never treat anyone differently or exclude anyone or shy away from the Tough Questions on race. Heck, there aren’t any! Let’s just enjoy Our Culture!

I’ve sort of thought about it off and on since Sunday morning at 5am when I first watched it, and I still don’t have much to say about the new Kanye West songs. Aside from one colicky moment, I haven’t found “New Slaves” and “Black Skinhead” particularly galvanizing — perhaps intentionally — since Kanye’s whole thing just is that he’s full of contradictions: even his anti-materialism raps are done in designer jackets and chains. But mostly I’m more of an album guy, and I can’t wait to hear all the music in its proper context. Pretty great performances, though. I will say that.
