Aight, check it. Back in '17, this cat named Duchamp, he try to pull a fast one. Took a whole toilet bowl, like the one you be droppin' deuces in, and tried to pass it off as art. Called that jawn 'Fountain.'

Now, real talk, the original disappeared quick. Like, poof, gone. Some say they trashed it, some say dude snatched it back. Who knows? But the streets say it was too wild for the bougie art crowd.

But hold up, that ain't the end of the story. 'Cause after that, they started makin' copies. Replicas. Fake 'Fountains' for the masses. Why? 'Cause these art snobs was feenin' for a piece of the action.

This whole situation is some straight up bull. Dude puts a toilet in a gallery, and all of a sudden, it's 'deep' and 'meaningful'? Nah, fam, that's just a toilet. It's for peein' and stuff.

And the fact that they made more after the original vanished? That's some capitalist mess right there. Turnin' a toilet into a commodity. They profitin' off the struggle, even when the struggle is just tryin' to understand why a toilet is considered art.

This ain't about art, it's about clout. Duchamp knew he was playin' the game, gettin' folks talkin'. And it worked. He got his name in the history books, even if it's for puttin' a porcelain throne in a museum.

The real art is in the streets, not in some fancy gallery. It's in the murals, the graffiti, the music. It's in the stories we tell each other, the way we express ourselves. That's the real deal, not some overpriced toilet bowl.

So, next time you see one of these 'Fountain' replicas, remember where it came from. It came from the toilet. It came from a dude tryin' to stunt on the art world. And it came from a system that values hype over substance.

Don't get fooled by the hype. Don't let them tell you what's art and what ain't. Trust your own eyes, your own ears, your own heart. That's the only way to stay true to yourself.

Real talk: art is for everybody, not just the rich folks and the elite. It's for the people, by the people. And it shouldn't cost you a fortune to experience it.
