Jay-Z, on art + language:
Art elevates and refines and transforms experience. And sometimes it just fucks with you for the fun of it. This is another place where the art of rap and the art of the hustler meet. Poets and hustlers play with language, because for them simple clarity can mean failure. They bend language, improvise, and invent new ways of speaking the truth
Wallace Stevens, on art + language:
It Must Be Abstract
It Must Change
It Must Give Pleasure
(old boys young boys same patterns)
