I'm from the era RIGHT before social media hit. Which is like LATE AOL/AIM days. EARLY MySpace. I say this, because I've had my fun on the internet. Late night runs to "shawty" crib, wildin w/ your homies on a cute girl's page, droppin BRAND NEW music for your 200+ fans.... lol I was there, man.
I guess I'm trying to figure out the value of dooinit NOWadays. The stakes are higher. People are willing to lie about and ON anyONE. The current dish on today's plate is a former DJ friend who, out of nowhere, called me evil and said I set her up. Now, I don't know what kind of game she's playing, but that kind of shit gets people arrested. Which is more evil than anything I've ever done to her.
But that's what leads me here. I have the contacts to everyone I NEED and WANT to talk to. Do I NEED to be on the socials? It's usually the same rhetoric, about the same people, all at (or around) the same time (during the day). My content (a Tweet here, a post on IG there, etc.) gets lost in the algorithm, and only a handful of devoted StrChsers can and will say anything about what I post. I'm not crying about it. I just know I can spend my time online doing better things than working social media.
As I've stated before, I plan to keep my blogs up (C., TTMH, CGi, Enter, Simone, etc,). In fact, I'll almost exclusively be working on them. I need to exercise my "pen", if you will. Still, I'll be putting more "effort" into the way I... speak.
Stay tuned!
#SoundOff!!!
