TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

Snoop Dog is trying to be a reggae singer.  Here's his first single.


It's got a roots sound, which I'm down with, but I can't shake the feeling that Damien Marley and HR are gonna want to smack a bitch.

It's stuck in my head, so it's catchy. What's up with the change in identity?

Quote from: wikipediaClaiming to be 'born again' in 2012, the gangster rapper switched the focus of his music to Reggae and changed his name to 'Snoop Lion' following a trip to Jamaica. With his new Reggae album 'Reincarnated', Snoop Lion also claims to be the reincarnation of Bob Marley, the Jamaican Reggae legend who who died in 1981.[130]

Ghosts have to time travel to reincarnate? Or does that mean he possessed little Snoop? Why do trips to places make people do weird shit like say they're Bob Marley?

Gross.

God, I fucking hate reggae.

This.  Also... that was the best name change he could think of?  It's certainly no Big Baby Jesus.

Or when Garth Brooks changed his name to do an edgy pop rock album.

He was Snoop Doggy Dogg a long time ago. Name change was probably way overdue.
Look at P Diddy or Puffy or whatever he's calling himself now.

Given how much juice Snoop has in the music industry, I'm guessing it will be an awesome album. If he gets either Lady Saw or Collie Buddz to drop some guest tracks, I'll be a happy man.

Also, Damien Marley being held up as some sort of paragon of Reggae is pretty hilarious.

And remember, folks, the fact that you live in the states and most of the reggae fans you encounter are idiot white boys with dirty dreds is a statement about the US, not reggae.

Oh, I just liked his album, is all.  I can't attest to what it "means" in the realm of reggae.  Same with HR. 

I listen to a lot of the college radio rootsrock, rocksteady and dub shows, but I couldn't tell you who anyone is.


At least I didn't give a shout out to Sean Paul...
