So, I've succumbed to my Negrodom
And that's ok cause it's the 2008 Car of the Year
And have fallen in love with the rather blingy Cadillac CTS...
I've decried the love of bling, and Detroit automakers for playing the African American Automotive consumer as idiots, for pandering to
us with Explorers, Aspens and Escalades...
Have you seen that New Chrysler Town & Country Commercial, where the whole Jenkins Family goes into the Driveway and sits in the Van, eating
Sweet Potato Pie and Watching Medea's Family Reunion? Umm, yeah, that's why we checked off all the option boxes at the Chrysler dealership, so we can move the Childrens table to the driveway and run down the battery...
It's sad...we sit there, in the van, watching TV, not driving anywhere....
Why, cause we keep having to buy new batteries, so we can't afford to put gas in our brand new car....
ugh...
Anyways....
So, Like I've been brainwashed by both "Dreamgirls" and "Hairspray" and now I must have a Cadillac, Cadillac car (did anyone else notice the Cadillac portrait the Dynamites were singing in front of in "Hairspray" was the same Model year (1962) and color (Rose Pink) as the Cadillac Curtis, CeeCee and The Dreams heard "Cadillac Car" in the Movie Dreamgirls in?, maybe that's just the legacy of Negrodom in 1962, a Rose Pink 1962 Deville 4 door hardtop).
I've been conquered...and it's not ok
DAMN YOU DETROIT!
