Cigarettes are disgusting.

If cigarettes got me high, I may reconsider the health implications occasionally.

If cigarettes tasted like Ben & Jerrys Ice Cream, then I may reconsider the health implications occasionally.

They don’t do either so I don’t understand how so many of you can actually spend your hard earned cash on the things when they do little for stimulation or taste. They also give you cancer.

Now I’m not just having a rant because I have a great song by Plan B which is based on the loss the sticks can cause. The song samples Crosses by Jose Gonzalez and is a real treat despite the grim setting for the song which may or may not have been based on his life as a child.

Haven’t heard of Plan B before? He provided the vocals for the Chase & Status track Pieces -- their first big break into the mainstream.
