If you stop, and think about shit for a second. Would you do the things you like to do, or even chase the dream you are after if the TV did not influence you at an early age? Probably not. As kids, up untill we can do what we want to do as people id say, we probably spent more time watching TV than just about doing any other activity. Kids spend 38 hours a week watching TV. That shit is crazy to me. 

Would the appeal for rap even be there for you if you never grew up tuning the channel to BET right after you came home from school? Probably not. Would you want to be a model if you weren't influenced by what you watched as a kid? Probably not. The stupid box has turned us into impulsive people, rarely can we see people that can actually think for themselves in every situation that arises. You are taught what is stylish, what is beautiful, what is cool, shit, even what to do. The shit depicted years of broadcasting to your eyes, and influenced you more than your parents, or school ever could.

The best thing we can do at this point folks, is to turn that shit off, and shoot it with a big ass gun.
