You're not entirely right. I was raised by a black man from Alabama in a very poor area in Oakland - I was one of the only white kids at Oakland tech when I went there. I lived this. my skin just happened to be white. I always felt love from everyone in my neighborhood. ...I had this album on repeat. I understand what you're saying though, it sucks that you're mostly right, but we can all be God's children.

Yo I dig this. Even though I'm white. Honestly I just love the art and creativity of hip hop. Not today's but underground and old school rap is great. I agree with the guy at the top, I never truly lived it. I'm just a white kid that loves hip hop, I don't hype weezy to black kids, shit I try to talk to them about gang starr, jeru the damaja, wu tang, main source, big L, pete rock, madlib, charizma and peanut butter wolf, fuckin heavy D(R.I.P.). Those kids can't see what I can see. Peace.
I wish rapper 2day had this same attitude, power through information and self education thru music, I studied the Clan's dialect, delivery and cause back n the day n it's unbelievable how much i learned from these brothers.
since itunes dosent have this I had to buy it thru Amazon, love this and I am white who dosent listen to it for the meaning just listening cause it makes me happy.
it's amazing that white and black cultures can't exsist in peace without it being some argument about who is racist. being black is the shit! but that takes nothing away from being white. x clan is not about hate, it's about love for you're self and all african people. grow up and be productive instead of being destructive. 1
This is how we escaped all the whiteness of the Reagan/Bush era, listening to positive black hip hop music and listening to black speakers on many topics. This music for intended for people of African descent. If you have a problem with that -please take your negative comments and go away. Its gets Blacker!
The rhythm and the lyrical cadence is pretty cool and the visuals are good too, but it's really just some fat guy dressed like Idi Amin meets nation of islam, indulging his vanity by spouting fake history. It's a curiosity piece.
I want to sincerely thank XClan, KRS, P.E, Rakim and all the other greats of the late-80s. They were the ones that legitimized rap as a serious musical art form, and cultural force, thru the power and brilliance of their music. Up until this point, hip hip was considered a disco like fad, with its focus on party themes and hip-to-hippy-hip-hop type aesthetic. Its disturbing that the culture disrespects its veterans so routinely. Without cats like KRS, there would be no hip hop. Thats real
Most hip hop back in the day made me proud to be black. I used to love early stages of hip hop, when did it stop becoming about unification and edifying each other...Now we love the thought about destroying ourselves and each other...we are oblivious to the damage this new music has done to our youth, our black woman and especially the black male...
Say what you wanna say, be it positive, negative, race related, whatever, whichever. I was riding around as a teenager bumpin tha shit out if X-Clan!!! Professor X (RIP). No matter the words being about me or for me, mad love and mad respect, always!! You Sissyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy's!!!

...or more accurately and in lieu of brevity yet deeply emmersed in specificity, is evidence of the perpetual tradition participated in by Anglos, Normans, Asians, Akans, and various upholders of Western fabrication which requires discounting the continent’s indigenous population’s legacy as being accurate, noble, and the pregenitor of even the practice of racist propaganda. If you don't like X-Clan just say you don't like X-Clan, don't act like their offensive and Eminem isn't.
...Dahomey, Akan, and Songhai, among other empires and kingdoms of Alkebulan historical antiquity, should be objects of scorn as suggested by such adversaries upholding Western fabrications. The exclusion of such indigenous people from the northern, southern, and eastern regions of their own continent, the Indo-European family of languages, the city of New York as it pertains to Harlem, the tribes of Israel as it pertains to Ham, is evidence of the perpetual tradition discounting the...
...That same former did not limit support to the people of Alkebulan descendancy, for even Rap Coalition’s Wendy Day owes a great debt of gratitude to the former. Yet the former and X-Clan are the object of that adversarial campaign to discredit their attempt, while the same said adversary avoids such criticism for say Eminem whose innate misogyny is applauded perhaps as an approach to uphold Western Anglo Norman Saxon Dutch cultural degenerate behavior....
@EsteemQuashIKana if you listen to the Eminem song "Yellow Brick Road" he actually grew up as a fan of X-Clan. it was because of that song that i went to look up X-Clan. and the whole misogyny thing is overblown, it may be grotesque and cartoonish in its violence but it's genius in the way it's said and not every woman is an angel. but i think we are disrespecting the legacy and greatness of X-Clan by even discussing other artists after seeing this classic video
@MrNattydread2010 POINT TAKEN THOUGH YOUR WRONG WHERE MISOGYNY IS CONCERNED, FOR WANTING TO KILL YOUR WOMAN IS ONE, YOUR WORD PLAY SKILL SET IS ANOTHER TOTALLY SEPARATE AND APART, BUT FOR THIS IDIOT TO MAKE GOOD ON SOME OF HIS SONGS WHERE LIFE IMITATES HIS ART IS LUDICROUS, I DO X CLAN WELL FOR THIS IS WHAT X AND J AND SUGAR SHAFT STOOD FOR, IF M IS A FAN OF THEM HE INVERTED HIS DISPLAY OF ADMIRATION IN A IGNORANT ALPHA MALE APPROACH RATHER THAN AS AN OBJECTIVE M C WITH A LITERARY SKILL SET

...and jewelry are reminiscent of traditions of Alkebulanian antiquity as conveyed by individuals inspired by Dr. Ben, Dr. Scobie, Dr. Clarke, Dr. Jefferies, Dr. Smalls, Professor Cheikh Diop, perhaps the adversary of people of appreciable melanin within their skin complexion detests the advances made by such individuals. Chris Blackwell should have relied upon individuals other than Bob Marley, and X-Clan; resorting to the Justin Bieber, Justin Timberlake, Robin Thicke, and countless others...
...Being “blacks” weren’t in Egypt, Algeria, Libya, and perhaps Hannibal of Carthage were not “black”, one wonders why the Anglo American Westerner never asserts repatriating themselves to these areas lacking in appreciable melanin possessing populations. Perhaps there is an internal anger possessed by the individual who thinks the garments and decorations adorned by X-Clan members are merely trivial. That those members are not saturated with Western produced wears , that beads....
...humanity is said to have originated from, one marvels when told “Go back to Africa.” Based on the premises aforementioned, going “back to Africa” as a “black person” appears to be an illogical endeavor ridiculous for even an adversary to suggest. Furthermore, the aforementioned premises seem more aptly appropriate for one of Anglo Saxon heritage lacking in considerable melanin. Being “blacks” weren’t in Egypt, Algeria, Libya, and perhaps Hannibal of Carthage were not “black”....
...Currently ‘sub-Saharan Africa’ is permitted to be claimed as a place of origin for people with complexions affected by melanin. ‘Africans’ are denied, by European/Western historians, any claim of North Africa be it Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Ethiopia, Somalia, Algeria, even Liberia though African Americans were repatriated there via a Western initiative. when one with melanin affected complexion, an Akan kingdom name, and a legacy of people from the Western Coast of the continent from which ...
HOW I KNEW THIS NITE SURF NAZI NYGA WAS GONNA SAY ISH LIKE THAT? 1 YOUR ORIGINAL 2 IM PROBABLY SUPPOSE TO BE OFFENDED, THIS THE PART WHERE THE DEBATE TAKES A SCHOLARLY/ACCURATE TURN: - ‘North Africa’ is historically disconnected from melanin complexioned people by Anglo Saxons and Semitic people who communicate in Arabic languages. South Africa is invaded and occupied by Dutch descendants. Currently ‘sub-Saharan Africa’ is permitted to be claimed as a place of origin for people with...

I'm rather bored by White produced ghetto garbage performed by token fakes (i.e... JayZ - Kanye). Why don't you just put down the blunt, quit your menial job and visit Africa? Maybe you could stay there? Your probably so black it borderlines on purple. They would welcome you I'm sure.....

@FIAZCOO That's interesting. So would you say that the "road was paved" for Asians and Indians? Because they seem to be doing quite well in this country, they succeed more than whites. Is it just Blacks who have the un-paved road?
@MagUalghairg1916 ...empowerment does not equal racism...Eminem loved this group as a youngster because he understood the meaning of their songs and so did many white kids back in the day
@MagUalghairg1916 ...errm you're asking me how do whites get empowered ? That's a first LOL ! You had no problem finding and listening to this song on YT...try typing in White Nationalism in the YT\Google search engine I'm sure you'll find plenty of stuff stretching back centuries
@MagUalghairg1916 ....are you really that ignorant\sarcastic or just plain stupid ? Let me guess...all three ! I get it...you ask a question I reply and then you ask another dumb question infinitum...right ?
@MagUalghairg1916 There is such a thing as white Nationalism. It's called America. Owned an controlled by white people. The Walker, Bushes, Pierces, Lee's, Astors, Rocefellers abd Gettys. The people who control 90% of this countires wealth. Only poor white people with limited education don't understand this. White supremacists are poor white people. Rich white people are too busy counting their money to care about the riff raff.
@mubou The people you mentioned control an amount of monetary wealth. That has nothing to do with a particular nation as their fortunes flux between national boundaries. Many of the names you mentioned would have no problem seeing this country overrun by the third world, in fact in many ways they're encouraging it. White Nationalism (unless a better term comes around) means a nation that is culturally Western in nature.
@boaire I guess, if you leave out that the family names that I mentioned have produced 30+ Senators, 8 Secretaries of State, 4 presidents, and 2 Directors of the CIA. Coporate wealth is always coupled with political power. They pick our wars. The US Constitution is a corporate charter, for all intents. They have never cared about borders our populations, they have gates to keep everyone out of their world. These Mayflower WASPS still run this place for there own ends. That was my point.
It's funny to read the comments.. A lot of white people get uncomfortable with this song. They advocate a color blind society on the internet. But in reality they support the same corrupt system that has oppressed black people for centuries with slavery and Jim Crow laws to today's disparity in sentencing on drug crimes, the level of quality of schools, and employment discrimination, which all affect negatively on minorities. The commenters like the music, but they're rightly scared.
XClan , along with KRS-1 and Public Enemy, helped set these politicfal names more deeply into our conciousness. Its like the phrase "a spoonfull of suger helps the medicine go down". The sugar is the hip groove, beat and rhythm. The medicine are the lyrics. Back in the 80's and 90's these artists help raise political awareness in Black youth. Not leaving them ignorant of their history , the world , and the people that died for their equalty (MLK, Malcolm, Huey Newton , Fred Hampton).
@TwinSn4k3 You thought "old hip hop was jungle shit"? GTFO, that ass doesn't know a god damn thing about hip hop, you listen to Eminem the Elvis of hip hop.
LEARN HOW TO LOVE YOURSELF, YOUR CULTURE,AND YOUR FAMILY HISTORY BEFORE WANTED TO BE GANGSTA. IM JUST SAYING IREMEMBER THIS BEFORE GANGSTA RAP. AND IM A G. DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE? HOMEWORK IT WIIL TAKE A LIFE TIME BEFORE YAL DUMB DEATH AND BLIND FIGURE IT OUT.X CLAN LIVEE 4 EVA THREW ME WITH A KEY SISSYS!
Deeep hip hop...loved X-Clan from way back...couldn't get enough of their music back in the late 80's early 90's these brothas were on point without one word of profanity and still sounding dope...sh*t !
If you think about it its about all people he just say black because it's what they make us out to be but we all are one NIGGA... Black Red And The Green....
@tonemd these american negroes cant embrace real music anymore. and the labels wont promote or push it like they can. these new niggers dont want the mysteries they want that CASH!!! GAME OVER DUDE!! THEY WON =(
FIrst off RIP ot Professor X......X Clan kills it period. Brother J is one of the dopest MC's of the Golden Era....His voice is in my top 5 next to Redman, Sadat, Saafir, Guru, CL Smooth.......period. This music was way beyond the attack on the pale skin, this was pro knowledge and slick earth music.....the PINK CADDY is just the stamp on the whole thing.....
@Bouchon211 sadly you are correct. That is why they know more about REAL african history than many african americans. They listen to what really needs to be listened too and they leave Jeezy and Wayne for the lost souls to consume and continue to get dumber.
@Bouchon211 Whites "listening", is like how the hippies and phony white liberals "studied" black culture ...It's all just "fascinating" to them - they learn it, but they don't, necessarily, LIVE it (nor absorb it) ...You had many of those whites, in the late 80s, who were, supposedly, "down" with Public Enemy ...But many of them, now, are going around here, talking about how "rap is crap"..Remember, it is whites that hype "Weezy" to black kids, while blocking the X-Clans from receiving exposure
@Lashid4u I think the whole white/black thing is a a ploy to divide the people against themselves instead of the real enemy. Those on top regardless of race or beliefs will always look to take advantage of those at the bottom be it white or black, even Obama has been fucking over his own people. In regards to Public Enemy when any group becomes 'mainstream' many fans listen to them just because other people do, and today's rap really is crap with a few exceptions.
@Lashid4u I think that comment is a bit discriminatory. I'm white, and I like X-Clan. And yes, it IS "fascinating" to me, like a lot of other things that I like. Not sure exactly what would be required of me to LIVE it, but I do understand and respect the message....
@CosmicCamera it's a cultural cliche these days... it's fine to discriminate against white people, even PC, but the moment there's perceived racism against a black person all hell breaks loose. several generations saw white kids having racial shame hammered into their heads, and black kids having a persecution complex hammered into theirs. Racism is racism and only dipshits and assholes fall for it.
@Lashid4u Hey folks you're definitely right about how whites flipped the script after the 90's. Yeah they figured out that groups like x-clan,public enemy,krs 1, & others are now expendable with all the changes in the world with technology,fashion, & other commercialized shit. Todays youth are not into black culture especially the history of black music. They only know bitches,ho's,bling,money,cars,houses,guns,fucking,rapping about weed & cocaine, ect. The industry is about money, not substance
@str8outtatexas1 it's always been like that. in the 90's artists like O.C., Gangstarr , etc. weren't getting promoted by the industry. you always have to search for quality
@Lashid4u .Remember, it is whites that hype "Weezy" to black kids, while blocking the X-Clans from receiving exposure So what your saying is whites force blacks to listen Weezy? Really? Pull your head out of your racist ass and get with reality. This entire comment is so ridiculous I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
@sertsj1 I agree on blacks always trying to "share" w/ white people (people who never knew how to share) - from our dances, to our kindness (just for white folks to take advantage of) ...but HOW THE FUCK are black people blocking groups like X-Clan from getting exposure? We don't even have that power, dumb-ass! ...and WHY would we even do that? ..and you call my comment "ridiculous" ...lol
@Lashid4u The first lines of my reply.... are copied from what YOU wrote. You don't even know what you're responding to. Keep bringing your racist babble. It's funny to read.
@sertsj1 Oh and Jimmy Lovine doesn't run Interscope??? Force? No they play it on the radio... I'm a DJ, I know what "heavy rotation" is, even on services like Sirius/XM. Its what they are exposed too, choice? Not really, where else do they talk about this? BET? LOL, E! no way, so just where????
@Lashid4u You're wrong. You are stereotyping as a response to stereotypers. I am white, I have this on vinyl. I own a large collection of old-school hip-hop, all of which is black music exclusively, except Peanut Butter Wolf. I own every Funkadelic album on vinyl, and have seen them live. I study African history and accept that I could never live it, but surely it is better to learn what I can. By taking the approach you do, you're cutting your nose off to spite your face. Welcome any progress.
I'm so tired of hearing about whites copying BLACK-AFRICAN-CULTURE....they've been doing this for years.Ever hear of Judaism-Christianity-Islam? We need mor music like this,we need not only "educate the youth"but adults also on cultural items.
RIP Professor X!!

They were the ones that legitimized rap as a serious musical art form, and cultural force, thru the power and brilliance of their music. Up until this point, hip hip was considered a disco like fad, with its focus on party themes and hip-to-hippy-hip-hop type aesthetic. Its disturbing that the culture disrespects its veterans so routinely. Without cats like KRS, there would be no hip hop. Thats real

@mubou The people you mentioned control an amount of monetary wealth. That has nothing to do with a particular nation as their fortunes flux between national boundaries. Many of the names you mentioned would have no problem seeing this country overrun by the third world, in fact in many ways they're encouraging it. White Nationalism (unless a better term comes around) means a nation that is culturally Western in nature.

The sugar is the hip groove, beat and rhythm. The medicine are the lyrics. Back in the 80's and 90's these artists help raise political awareness in Black youth.

@Lashid4u I think the whole white/black thing is a a ploy to divide the people against themselves instead of the real enemy. Those on top regardless of race or beliefs will always look to take advantage of those at the bottom be it white or black, even Obama has been fucking over his own people. In regards to Public Enemy when any group becomes 'mainstream' many fans listen to them just because other people do, and today's rap really is crap with a few exceptions.
