I'm not going to give this more thought than necessary. But speaking about this social media-laced tough-guy-talk-travesty-turned-wannabe-fighters-preparing-to-touch-hands is absolutely necessary. Cause impressionable-ass-kids are watching.
Why the hell are Soulja Boy and Chris Brown en-route to a boxing match this month? Why has DeAndre Way spent the last few months Instagram-thuggin' with toy guns and weed when he's on probation? Why is Mr. 50 Cent, an elder, egging this fight on instead of pulling these young cats aside and having them discuss their issues like grown men? Screw it, why did this crap even get to this point in the first place?
There's so many things wrong with seeing two young, successful black men put on "gangsta" acts for their online fans. Although, at the moment, Soulja Boy deserves much heavier scrutiny, for having brought Brown's daughter into this act, and apparently being the first to pop off, weren't there other ways to resolve this?
Like going into the studio and producing some hackneyed, played-out ditty about lesbian Siamese strippers trying Kama Sutra positions at Sin City. Or even writing a collabo book on acquiring financial security for oneself at a younger age. On second thought, scratch the last one. That would be too responsible for them.
At least they're gonna shoot fades at each other rather than glock clips. And settling a beef like that is commendable in this age. But still, immaturity and pettiness caused this fight in the first place. And who knows if the fight will even be the end? Le Sigh.
