I am sure many of you wonder why I have chosen this title for my blog, but lucky for you, this is the Introduction to the mind of Blue Aura, the Urban Anthropologist.
Let's begin with the basics: Anthropology (in which I have received formal training) is the study of man in all aspects (biological/evolutionary, linguistics, archeology, and cultural), I am focused on the Cultural aspect. My use of 'Urban' strictly entails the genre(s) I am researching, and writing about.
You see, so much of the Entertainment industry is enigmatic to the rest of society. My blog is designed to remove the frills and facades of the Music industry, particularly Hip-Hop/R&B, and show the sides many of you have never seen; or know exist. This is not a blog to glorify rappers and others involved in this industry, it is to remove their pedestal-to make them human. This blog is designed also to inspire young women to love their bodies, instead of seeking to change it with evasive surgery.
Hip hop is one genre of music that glorifies the unrealistic curves of a woman, and plants the seeds of inferiority in the minds of young ladies aspiring to be the object of desire for many of their celebrity crushes. These artists magnify the 'importance' of large breasts and large hips and ass, which are traits rarely obtained naturally. I am writing to prove that natural, intelligent women can win the hearts of their desired celebrity, instead of settling for less; allowing fake, vacuous ‘Barbies’ to steal our places in society. In short, I’m shutting down the fake, and uplifting the real. Look out NY, GA, TX, CA, as a new trend is catching on,
Real women with real minds are coming to blow yours...Eat your heart out Barbie.
Till we meet again,
The Urban Anthropologist
