by "catholic" I mean the traditional latino catholic that's just passed down from parents that nobody really cares about except for baptisms, weddings, and funerals

then in HS got into brand nubian, PRT, wu, all the standard 5 % rappers and then went full fledged God body

even got the universal flag tattoo

some years later, and I don't know exactly how since we drifted apart, he got into santeria. The last time I went to his crib he had the little altar in a corner with the beads, statue, and whatnot

I guess he came back full circle cuz santeria= catholicism for latinos

it's wild to me cuz 5 % is all about do for self, i self lord and master, no mystery spook, and santeria is highly spiritual, spirits control everything, you must pay homage to them, etc
