Ok I feel better now. I think that song is the shit but I did feel he sounded racist. Tho I totally feel when he says everything he does is a time capsule. We all grow and change over time.
ras clearly understands his immaturity at the time and that the song is a gross exaggeration of racial history. but I also think that there are some truths to be taken from the song and it helps explain how race divisions have continued to exist in society.
@ 1:40 Does he not believe what he rapped about? It would be shameful if that is the case because he has factual info in the song. I think it was by far one if not the most influential and best songs made specifiaclly for our people, and anyone else who wishes to learn in general.
@puffin4you The Vilayet of Baghdad (Ottoman language: ولايت بغداد, Vilâyet-i Bagdad, Modern Turkish: Bağdat Vilâyeti, Arabic:ولاية بغداد) was a vilayet (province) of the Ottoman Empire. The capital was Baghdad.
Yeah.. and white people being albinos...... lol @ 'black nationalists' and their historic revisionism. A lot of the stuff is true, but far from everything, I know because I know everything.
@LouieV6 Oh Yeah ur right ,but no dipfuck in the song when hes talking about muslims being forced to convert to christianity he says they were from bagdad Turkey and thats not true.
nature of a threat created alot of buzz for ras kass i remenber hearing that track and i was blown away by how good of a lyricst ras is and soul on ice is still one of my fav albums. Yuup
@350block I don't know the original sample. But DJ Quik produced a song for 2nd II None in '91 with this beat. 2nd II None . Song called underground terror.
Ras Kass you are sheer brilliance!!! great song!! thank you I love your work...I dont listen to rap much but that song I will blow my brains out on my ipod. Thank you for inspiring me <3
It was a dope song lyrically and as a "history lesson". You could see that he did singled out a whole race; but if you don't trip on that you will see that it was a dope song.
This tune scared me, woke me, vhanged my fucking life forever. True RAP this is a eternal classic from the genre and an echo of our lost cultural tradition of tuition.
The population of less developed countries will continue to rise while the others drop for the most part. If you consider Indians black then yes the black population will explode.
@southsideStrong indians arent blk they would never claim blk, point in fact, ghandi was a radical racist that hated blks yet blk ppl tip his name off their lips like he was a saint, he would soon spit on than speak to you, see thats kneegrow mens problem like the mixed commenter said yall cant stay out of yt puzzy, cauc-ASIAN)niccars colorstruck so that dominate gene crap dont work most blk men would be w/light or yt females no matter the character, we were 15% of population 30yrs ago & 12% now
And check it,this track has to be good when it got all these cats on here arguing and thinking "debating" thats the dopest reaction ive seen to a song
naw homie iam mixed and its the white race that is shrinking...NIggas cant stay out of white pussy.remember reading bout dominate and recessive gens....Black brown what ever is the dominate and whites the recessive...but you got some good points bout all that is see what youre saying......BUT That Track is one of the hottest joints to come out .......And Ras you know soul on ice is the dopest cd you made..not hating on the others but every track is on point..
@Keepklassic91 100% blacks in canada, u.s, and europe are shrinking. the more they bang white people the less 100% blacks there are here. btw, where are you from
@tommyboy88 where would you like me to begin you fool?
Calling people from Baghdad turks? Calling turks black? Calling white skin albinism?
This guy wrote this shit in jail, its not historically accurate at all its an attempt to claim deeds done by non blacks as black so they don't look like absolute shit in history books
The black race is shrinking. At least in areas where they are the minority. (Europe, America, Canada etc.) In 2000 there were 700,000 mixed people of black and white backgrounds in America, today there are 2 million mixed people of white and black in america. In europe the ratio of mixed black and white people to 100% blacks is about 2.5 to 1. And in the past 10 years the rate of mixed white and black babies born to 100% blacks was about 4 to 1 in Europe. Just something to think about, No hate
@dvharris75 Shut up idiot. I used to listen to Rass Kass back in the 1990's, I didnt say I didnt like him. Im just referring to the fact that he still hasnt moved on to better things or maybe perhaps he has and just didnt say so.
I remember back when he was trying to be the next big rapper but his career did work out like he hoped.
Ras TY for your Contribution in this Well know but denied facts in ourStory! Truth is truth! And Yes this is the Ultimate hit! From a Short list of 9eyed mindz Joins Ras Kass Deservingly so Brother! The fact you didn't sell your soul shows your head wasn't meant to go inthe clouds needless to say no fall at all! Peace To All Spell Breakers! Nothin like that Mental Alchemy; Fear, faith, hope, Charity just can't live there!
