Hey, Steemsters
Hugo The Poet here. I was delighted with the results of my text Steem-troduction post, and I couldn't wait to get stuck in and create some more blog/vlog type posts for you guys.
But I kind of felt I had to wait, and do a proper introduction to my art style for this platform, before beginning to hit you guys up with my albums/back catalogue of videos, and my random thoughts in text form.
So, I had some slivers of time - and stayed up waaaaay too late several nights on the trot - to make this song and video. It's a little rap about me as an artist, and the little that I know about Steem, Steemit, and what makes this social media platform different, and so freaking special.
I really hope you guys enjoy it!
Here's the YouTube link if you prefer (D.Tube seems slow to load... for anyone else?)
Now that this is out, I'm going to commit to regularly blogging and vlogging on this Steemit/D.Tube channel, re-releasing my existing content, as well as launching my future material here before everywhere else online (except Patreon - I'll still preview release it there first of all!)
Thanks so much for your very kind welcome so far. Looking forward to creating more content for you legends.
Much love and (imo the most crucial commodity in human existence)... PEACE!

S T double E to the M.

Wonderful video .. well done
Your influence on the community will be through your work regardless of your personality
awesome words thank you for the advices..
thanks, sir! much appreciated
To all you discovering Hugo for the first time, I'm proud to not only be a fan but a friend of Hugo. If you liked this, you have no idea what lies in store for you.
If your soul craves intellectual stimulation in the form of rap, you won't be able to get enough of his back catalog. which you can buy here in a non-decentralized way at https://hugothepoet1.bandcamp.com/ I suggest starting with the Illusions mixtape and The Glorious Revolution which are unprecedented but don't miss his Science Friction, Unarmed Forces or Medici EPs.
Let these games bring nutrition to your brains.
And because no one else outed him as the formerly the star of Juice Rap News 2009-2015, which is another 35 brilliant performances of timeless current events as characters such as Robert Foster, Terrence Moonseed and General Baxter.
Elevate this dude. We need him!
Ah, brother Ben! Thanks for the super kind words! Much love good sir! Great to know that you're here in this space too! xx
Wonderful video, you kill it. Keep it up
,
Can you link me to a good article explaining it? Thanks!
We seek governance without government (no double standards or special protections for some) and rules without rulers. Voluntaryists believe in the NAP (Non-aggression Principle) or "Golden Rule" as some call it. You treat others as you would want to be treated, and you never use violence other than in defense. Everything is voluntary and consensual, or it is unethical.
big fan of that Golden Rule. What are examples of this system put into practice? What does it have to say about the existence of nations and national borders? are they an example of defense?
The existence of traditional nations is the antithesis of voluntaryism, as traditional governments are inherently involuntary. Any system of governance that is entirely voluntary can't really be called a government.
I'm sure you've heard of "anarcho-capitalists" before. Ancaps and Voluntaryists are one and the same; Voluntaryist is just a less edgy word and has gained a lot more traction. National borders cannot exist without nations, and nations cannot exist voluntarily. Private property borders, however, would exist and would be able to be defended.
@adamkokesh has a lot of videos on DTube and YouTube covering the ideas of Voluntaryism and is running for the Libertarian Nomination for President in 2020 on the sole platform of dissolving the Federal Government. If you'd like to learn more about voluntaryism, his videos are a great start.
He's trolling people. Even if he got elected, which is a joke by itself, the Office of the President has no authority to dissolve the federal government.
Rulers setup nation states on purpose to maintain their power as an oligarchy. There is no example of a voluntaryist state because no such thing would or should ever exist. Perhaps there will be something similar to a trade free zone or a "city state" for voluntaryists, but it would all be private and without special protections or double standards for some over others.
thank you nice topic
Great intro!! This is so epic!!! Looking forward to seeing what you bring out next.
STEEM ON!!

Very cool! Welcome to SteemIt. I gave you an upvote and a resteem.
ah, bam! Thanks! That's a huge deal to resteem something, I'm learning. So, huge appreciation! H
Great message, Hugo. Love the lyrics!
Now put some Swagger on it ;)
Greetings from Berlin
ha ha ha! pretty much swag-free zone over here, bro! Much love to Berlin from Melberlin!
Do your thing, Hugo! Respect.
But don't copy & paste Jay-Z anymore, your content is better than that...
So allow yourself to reintroduce the "reintroduce" lyrics ;)
ha ha well, man, I pretty often put in references to other rap lyrics that I like - try and recontextualise whole songs, even. There's a Kanye one in this very song too. So I can't promise there won't be more JayZ... cos he's one of my all-time heroes! But, I appreciate the candour, and I hope you'll always hit me back with more critiques
Your content is worth the attention & it
will be my pleasure ;)
Looking forward to whats next, maybe
i scratch your lyrics one day... who knows ;)
Have a blessed day

Hi, Hugo...very impressed. Awesoooome..Enjoy your time in Steemit.

bam! thanks!
Nice to meet you. Life imitates art. This platform is a brilliant start needed to bring art back to the hands of people who care. Not this bullshit we see in mainstream that's brainwashing everyone. Real artists are needed here not controlled ones, that's all mainstream has to offer. I look forward to following your work in the future.
Thanks so much for tuning in! Well, yeah, I'm impressed with this platform so far. I think most artists would do very well here, and I'm encouraging all my friends to get involved, for exactly the reasons you say.
We are definitely on the same page. I also encourage people to come here as much as I can. It's a perfect platform for artists.
