Although we are three months away from the cuffing season draft, dating problems are a huge topic on social media. From the Twitter revival that brought us closure last week to #BlackTwitterDates, two spoken word poets are giving us a reason to further examine the statement plaguing our generation.
“Let me see your phone!”
Malachi Byrd and Morgan “MoMo” Butler of Brave New Voices performed a jaw-dropping piece tackling the problems facing millennial daters. Morgan starts out by asking a question almost everyone in a relationship has asked at least once.
“Let me see your phone! Who is concrete underscore rose with two e’s commenting on your Instagram pic from 30 weeks ago?”
Girl.
Then Malachi cuts in for the fellas dropping a few bombs himself.
“I aint tripping off the retweets, the real dirt in them favorites.” He then goes on to question her best friend that he has never met and even gives us instructions on how to check your significant other’s frequent locations. Is this what dating has come to? Yes.
The duo ended it with a lesson I think we all can learn from, no matter what age.
“It turns out that assumptions are icebergs that can titanic the tightest of connections.”
And that they can. So will you second guess asking to see boo’s phone? Or keep asking?
Take a look at the full video below.
