Consumers Pt. I

Valentine's Day is around the corner, a consumer's holiday. Romance huh? A lot of people live consumer's lives. A lot of females want to wined and dined on Valentine's Day. What happens if you're not? A bad year? Are you less of a woman? All my guy friends got to have sex. All that for some sex? It's just dressed payment, paying too much if you will. People buy jewelry, chocolates, flowers, candles, lingerie, etc. trying to set the mood. Those are the same chocolates she eats when she's mad at the dude. The flowers die and the candle flame out just like this whole Valentine Day act will. Valentine's Day is just an easy target for my thoughts on consumers.
The thing with consumers, they are driven by commercial and mainstream opinions. Consumers have to go out and buy "swag." They have to have "it." Materialistic people driven by commercials and music. Most music that generates huge revenues, especially in my circle of society, is commercial consumer music. The music consumes the consumers and forces the consumer to conform. Music I prefer, inspires the soul, music on the radio lends the soul to the mainstream.
