Wu-Tang Clan ♥ Super Game Boy

I remember wanting both—Wu-Tang Clan on headphones, the Game Boy in my pocket. Two completely separate impulses, no connection except they occupied the same moment in the 90s. The clan had the swagger, the Game Boy had the games. They didn’t need to be related. That’s what I miss about that era, I think: you could have totally different obsessions and they’d all feel equally important, equally cool, without any of them needing to justify themselves by referring to the others.
