oh good lord

I fucking abhor W. But this shit is getting out of hand.

I told my friend that I think a race war is coming and I might be right, because niggers are pissed off now. Goddamn hip hop agitators are making it worse than it has to be.

9/9/2005 12:34:03 PM

Do people listen to this shit? Its fucking horrible.

9/9/2005 1:06:04 PM

it's not a fucking single he's putting out to gain massive acclaim

Ignorance

The bash on Bush is just a small part of the song, it doesn't characterize it. Mos Def would be remiss as an activist-rapper if he didn't put that in there.

Isn't Mos Def one of the cities on Tatooine?

9/9/2005 2:17:12 PM

You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villiany

The fact that he's dissing Bush is missing the main point: with a few exceptions (like the Bling Bling Era), rap has always been anti-establishment. Rap has become the new Rock in this area. While rock has become more corporatized following the end of grunge (Pearl Jam is the sole exception, so, I don't want to hear it), rap has remained an in-your-face musical genre that blasts whoever is in charge of whatever established office they see as a malfeasance. This is even though the hip hop culture is starting to become more corporatized itself.


As far as a race war, unless anyone in Vegas putting money on Al-Qaeda to win the WOT, it would be in this country's second-worst interest for us to go that route (the only worse thing is that Red-Blue Civil War some culture warriors keep bringing up). Katrina may be a divisive issue, but an all-out racial discontent that would make the late '60s look is very unlikely.

9/19/2005 10:58:38 AM

do you have a lyric from a rap song that is bashing clinton

9/19/2005 11:07:59 AM

2Pac dissed him on How Do U Want It...i mean basically any rap song from 1992 to 2000 probably bashed Clinton...and 92-00 was the golden age of rap...hmmmm...apparently when Clinton is president, he motivates rappers to be at their best...hmm

Alot of black people are upset at Bush
Therefore...

Step 1. Make a rap album insulting bush.
Step 2. Make stupid ass claims like Bush doesn't care about black people
Step 3. Profit.

He may or may not, but here's a definite:

Quote :

"Now if dirty Bill Clinton fronted me some weight Told me to keep two, bring him back eight And I only brought him five and stuck his ass for three Do you think that Clampett will sick his goons on me? See Martail Homes, that's my claim to fame That's where I learned my slickest trick in the dope-d-game Like my favorite, I call it lemon head delight That's when you lick off all the yellow and you sell the white"
