Come on man, people listen to dead prez and come to the conclusion: "I dont want revolution. I dont think we live in a police state." They dont want politics in the radio, they want entertainment to stop thinking about their stupid 8 hour job. The masses dont like this kind of music because they dont identify with it. Nobody needs to hide anything.
First time I heard this, and it sent shivers down my spine! 22 years later and the messages are still seriously relevant! Might be some of the best hip hop I've ever yeard to be frank. Pure realism. Makes me hate all this rap about jewelry, clothes, women and cars so much.
A lot of people did but most of them are dead or in jail and everybody that threw them in the bin are now getting buried in the graves they've been digging for themselves 💀
These are the times still 5/2020..... decades later and still reeling just sad 😔 #georgefloyd rest in paradise brother “we in the fight for our lives, basic human rights”
I remember when they sent us this original promotional video (snippet)... I worked at radio station in Phoenix, Arizona. I was the host of the first live mixshow on FM radion. It was called *"The Sure Shot"* an from 9p-Midnight we played regular station music BUT after Mindnight til 3am we played underground/lesser known/smaller label *HIP HOP*... Three of the people who took part in that show are now big time DJ's on a global scale and I myself had a great run doing nights. Just showed that a Hip Hop head(s) could have a voice and people would support... Oh did I mention I had to pay every person out of my own pocket SMH... The corporate suitsaid "The attention they get from being on air will change their status in the muaic/club community so that's their pay" ...Its stuff like that 😤😡😂 forced me to give it up. RIP great HIP HOP MUSIC #BIGWILLIE #Power92.3
WE NEED MORE TRUTH MUSIC OUT THERE!!! FUCK THE industry and all that fake shit that means absolutely NOTHING!!! The REAL SHIT GETS SILENCED...BUT REAL ONEZ NEVER SLEEP AND STAY AWAKE!💯⏰⏳👊✌👀
I love y’all since day one I grew up 4 blocks from Richards my grandma was a substitute when y’all where there and was present on drive by’s on the school always had mad respect for y’all thank you for taking my blinders off I’m just so happy I stumbled across your music so early. The show at the beta bar or whatever they call it now was insane and my best yet M1 talked to my boy that was held down by the man right before the show!

You may not be a communist but the alternative to that is being a capitalist and I'm assuming you sure as hell ain't no capitalist since you have to have capital to be a part of the capitalist class.
