Yeah, you could tell this kid wasn't some ghetto thug from a bad part of Houston. He was from Caldwell. It's 12% black now, but was probably lower in 1992 when I knew him. Poor kid was probably trying to shun his redneck upbringing and find some black friends. It's a tough spot to be in, but we all liked him anyway.

Shoot, he probably knew my cousins, then. My late uncle used to pastor a church in Caldwell.

Best thing to do is just embrace the fact that you're "weird." At least that's what worked for me--I just looked at it like I could relate to pretty much whomever when it came to musical tastes. People react to peer pressure in different ways, though.
