I’m Not Famous
There are so many strange things happening in our world. Sometimes we feel like we are part of a system in which we are lab rats where our every move and thinking are closely monitored. Where one feels like he is under a microscope, and it is no longer safe to act freely. Where some are scared to limitlessly think because there is fear that his thoughts are invaded by unknown sectors, who are taking advantage of their superiorities. A feel of more than just being stalked, a suspicion more than paranoia, what would you do if you found out that you’ve been living most of your life tracked? Where there is no privacy of the thoughts you’ve been keeping to yourself? Where you can’t find a justification of the experience because you’re simply yourself and not someone well-known who is already in a high guard preempting this kind of breach? How would one handle a situation like this, would you succumb to the paranoia and do nothing about it? Or will you take advantage of the situation and make most of the circumstances and divert it to attest to your full potential as a person?
Today, my dear readers, I am going to introduce to you a multi-talented artist, professional musician, author, self-titled brand owner, and director that goes by the name of Bernard Howard, also known as Lyrical Storm. He took me in-depth with a personal documentary about his exploration and discovery about his experiences with remote electronic surveillance and gang stalking in the city of Los Angeles, California. This one of a kind short documentary dives deep into the issue of an advanced privacy breach that invades more than one’s external space but intensely within the body specifically the mind. Watching this mind-boggling documentary sent chills all over my body for it supports theories on how much the system can control and penetrate into our lives. Aside from that, I also love how Lyrical Storm talks about his music and how he aims hard to get to his goals with his music career and his path as a multi-media artist.
I have always been a fan of the rap/ hip-hop genre ever since I was very young. I am used to following and listening to rap artists talk about their life and music, but Lyrical Storm is distinctively special. He is stepping out of the ordinary bounds of being a rapper and more to being someone who is socially, politically, and economically driven to show us what is life on and off the mic. It had me thinking if I already appreciate his talks on this mini-documentary now, what more if I listen to all his music and audiobooks? Or grab a copy of his books? I bet that would be an experience worth taking, undoubtedly a life-changing path that many deserves to know, particularly the young ones who adore the rap industry and doesn’t know where to begin or no longer has the drive to move forward. I truly appreciate this documentary and Lyrical Strom’s sincere effort to show us the reality of being a rap artist under the microscope. Cheers!
