And They Say Drugs Were Killing The Youth

We discussed the topics on what the reason was why people take drugs and how so many famous musicians, like Sonny in the story Sonny's Blues and tons of other life-changing bands and artists that have used drugs in their life. We thought of some reasons why people might want to take drugs: to feel something, to have sort of an out-of-body experience, to cope your feelings. There are also many geniuses out there there that have admitted to having some sort of drug usage in their life. For example, Steve Jobs, the creator of Mac, admitted that LSD was a major part of his life. There has also been many historical and recent bands and hip-hop artists such as The Beatles, Slighly Stoopid, Kid Cudi, Jay-Z, Silversun Pickups, and many many other musicians that either have songs that are drug-related or have told us in their music that they have experienced drug use. I believe the drugs that these people use, they use to enhance their view on things and allows them to think to an even higher extent of what normal thinking is, and they think of a genius idea that might possibly make them rich or famous for figuring out the missing piece in something or maybe inventing something. And some admit that the help of drugs assisted them in their progress to their genius idea.
