Poverty ???....The same guys who made the clip Msimu kwa Msimu ??? Seriously ???

[rumbakali]

@kodachiken yeah the Msimu video is meant to be ironic - towards the end of the video they are thrown out of the limo... and they talk about how in life one day you may have money and the next day your pockets are empty.

[kodachiken]

@rumbakali  Oh ...ok

Mpendwa Bwana Yesu,

Najua kwamba mimi ni mwenye dhambi na msamaha wako. Naamini kwamba alikufa msalabani kwa ajili ya dhambi zangu na alifufuka kutoka kaburini kwa kunipa uzima. Najua wewe ni njia pekee ya Mungu. Hivyo sasa mimi unataka kuacha kutomtii Wewe na kuanza kuishi kwa ajili yako. Tafadhali nisamehe, mabadiliko ya maisha yangu na kunionyesha jinsi ya kujua wewe. Katika jina la Yesu. Amina.

@juma4 Eery!!!!!!

[ljames418]

WHAT WE NEED TO COMPREHEND IS THE ABSOLUTE POWER OF OUR CULTURE ON ALL THE VARIOUS GROUPS OF BLACK CULTURES AROUND THE GLOBE . . . HERETOFORE . . . THE NATURAL IMPULSE TO PROMOTE POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE IN AN UNJUST SOCIETY HAS BEEN COOPED BY SHREWD CRAFTY CAPITALIST INVESTORS (white, black, jew, christian, you name it) FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF PROFIT. THE VICTIMS OF THEIR PROFIT SEEKING STRATEGIES ARE THOSE WHO BLINDLY FOLLOW & PURCHASE THEIR OFFERINGS . . . WAKE UP! THIS IS OUR TIME NOW!!!!!!

[Seanz1lla]

I'm Agnostic so I'm not all in to the religious part; but this is a great song with a great message regardless. Much respect.

[ashwind100]

@Seanz1 i am indian terrorist and respect for africa.

[Amunet369]

@ashwind100

LOL @ "terrorist"

ALL NON-WHITE PEOPLES ARE IDENTIFIED AND LABELED AS TERRORIST BY THE SUPPORTERS OF GLOBAL WHITE SUPREMECY!

[said966]

ndio wajomba mnagazabu!

[dirtybase91]

wish i could understand..

[NARUTOZO]

@dirtybase91 of course you can undesrtand. I know there is another vídeo with subtitles.

Real hip hop, this song´s lyric is worthy

[MegaCrumbsnatcher]

@NARUTOZO the video with the subtitles appears to have been removed. I guess they ain't wanted american negros to see this. I remember the verse was like" what is the offense of the poor" yee he hee. I also remember the first time I read the titles I immediately thought that this brother life has to be in danger and then I saw the r.i.p. at the end.imagine Nas plus Precise Science that's about what the lyrics will remind you of. Dude got mad skills to bad they murdered him.

[juma4]

@MegaCrumbsnatcher this video does have subtitles, you just have to activate them. There is also a lower resolution version (search Youtube for 'African music') which now has over 700.00 views.

Kipi haram, kipi halali,

Kila mmoja anaitaka hii riziki

Kitendawili, vurugu mechi

Huwezi tabiri

[ty73us]

Surreal. We were spirited away across the ocean never to be seen again. The motherland hears our drums across the water centuries later and responds with their own message "We've been pretty fucked over here, too, since you left!" LOL!

Gallows humor. Forgive me. This is fire!

Rap n breakdance, graffitti and djing will never die. we should fight for freedom and justce, agains the imperial liberal capitalizm and agains people, who let kill brother vs brothers. rap is freedom of speach....bob marley sad: they can destroy your life, but they can t destroy and take your soul....

afican rap is real rap music, no mony, no btches, no glemour,no fake rappers. just real and authentic.

[SummerPig3]
