old school panther dee - the meaning behind "blankface" lp lyrics
theirs duality to this breakdown. on one side…..
blankface is schoolboys indirect reference to ralph ellison’s invisible man in which the protagonist begins with the claim that he is an “invisible man”. his invisibility, he says, is not a physical condition—he is not literally invisible—but is rather the result of the refusal of others to see him as complete human being. i.e. three-fifths compromise . as evidenced by history,q’s perception is not merely a figment of paranoia, but a sensible position for a black person to hold when trying to maneuver through this illusionary society that lingers within america.especially considering schoolboy propensity to discuss a wide range social politics throughout blank face lp
on another side , with the releases of his 3 part ( short film/music video fusion) this could be schoolboy’s way of delevering his audience a genuine and conscious portrayal of his past life/“character” without making any overt reference to himself for “legal reasons” . blankface also of course directly correlates with the story and themes of the record note “by any means” , “ride out” etc. school expressed that blankface is a reference to ghostfacekillah. but from viewing his hot97 interview this week i get the feeling its deeper than that
