- jelling 2y agoSo he did what… made a boom bap, cat-in-the-hat rap musical and put it in midtown to save them the drive? Lin-Manuel Miranda loves letting people think he came from the streets when his Dad is a political consultant that worked for multiple mayors and presidential campaigns and his mom is a psychologist. Lin Manuel went to one of the most prestigious magnet schools in the Upper East Side and then went Wesleyan, which is one of the most prestigious private liberal arts colleges. He shouldn’t talk about his customers like that.
- dehrmann 2y agoGuess he should know about that, then. My criticism of Hamilton is usually that the premise, setting the story of the founding of the US to <gasp>rap</gasp> feels like something an edgy high school teacher would do on a 90's family sitcom.
