little brother vs. peta
Little Brother are a soulful, throwback rap trio that makes everyone who says the words "golden age" too much, happy. PETA love animals and want you to love them as well. For the record, I was veggie-ish for five years and fell off the bandwagon when I went to Mexico (in case you were wondering, they haven't got that word in the Spanish dictionary, yet). Story goes like this: PETA did an interview with Little Brother two years ago when they were vegetarians. Then, they started eating meat again. Well, two years later PETA posts the interview. Dante, of Little Brother, had this to say:
Them niggas is bonkers fam…..and I don't endorse them niggas IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM…..
Basically, me and Pooh went for a while where we had both stopped eating meat…and while we were vegetarian, PETA asked us to do an interview at the Rock The Bells festival….niggas was like, 'Cool…."
We ain't know them niggas was gon' run the shit TWO YEARS LATER after niggas done fell off the wagon……didn't they read my waing blog?
Plus, my problems with PETA run waaaaay deeper than that. To me, they come across as rich white folk who are privileged enough to fight a 'struggle' that the average everyday working person could really give a fuck about. Meat is murder? Get the fuck outta here with that bullshit! Meat ain't murder, its what's for dinner!
Somewhere, Morrissey is crying.
