I'm part of a minority that grew up in Toronto, so I can say this with authority. Of course, I am willing to be educated on how there is a real oppressive element in Canada that prevents people from having any social upward mobility. I just don't want to hear the same "raa raa...raa raa...white man you evil! fuck you cops. resist imperialism!" schpiel.
sorry, have to point it out, the word spreading does indeed have an R in it, if you're going to put up little handwritten signs, spell it right before a prick like me points it out, 2:05, intelligent music isn't always so intelligent
@001PTL Am I wrong? Seriously, Intelligent progressive hip-hop requires certain things, unfortunately this didn't deliver as far as I'm concerned, I'm interested in seeing what else this cat has to put in front of us, but as of the moment I'm unimpressed. I appreciate some of what they're doing on Freedom Writers, Adam Bomb "Wasted Talent" and "My People" were hot, and intelligent. I believe that everyone needs to step their game up, and put out properly polished stuff, it is what it is.
With you here, its obvious that this guy has mad talent, has a sick ear for beats, but the topic choice leaves a weird aftertaste. Like I can't fully feel it. Maybe it's because the "Western world is evil" shtick has been done to death, Progress isn't really saying anything new, and I'm not convinced why there should even be a "resistance" in a country like Canada. In a hyper capitalistic country where it favors Anglo-saxons in power (America), I can understand the angst.
Yeha man this is whats up kid.. The REAAAAL!!!! This is like 100 percent Hip Hop. Ill beats and ill rhymes one time for ya mind.. Crazy with the consciousness son... Yo these videos need not to stop. Flood youtube YEAH!!!! Upliftment of the people dem!
That was heavy most definitely like Progress's message and movement. Trying to put that conscious poetic injection of aspiration and persistence for progression and resistance to restoring to the devils ways of our evil souls and minds. Please keep on spreading the message and love... Nice beat and word play..
