Race has nothing to do with this. Sauls words are about transcending race, gender, sexual orientation, etc. I'm disappointed by the number of people who are only impressed that he's the only black man in the room.
REVERSE RACISM galore in some comments!!! How many black folks do you expect to show up in Salzburg/Austria? Do a white audience, white organizers in Europe reduce the value of this text/performance in any way? Some white people may give way more than a fuck and way more consideration and appreciation than black "brothers" sneering at Saul for spreading the word in places a bit further away. You'd rather have him slabber "gangster rap" in your hood or what? Saul's one of the best, period!
what i like is that hes spitting this in a place that you wouldnt commonly hear anything like that... the others around him are clearly uncomfortable... probly never heard him beofre OR anything like this from him before... especially the way it starts... hes the greatest
@paulmrussell12 they look rather uncomfortable, you have to remember saul is a poet unlike theyve ever seen... they probly frown upon "rap" or something too... the one lady has that awkward smirk the guy next to him just doesnt know what to think... idk just my opinion
@WordzSpoken The irony it just doesnt stop with them... Youd be suprised a lot of people in hip hop cant even realize Sauls probably a greater MC then who theyd assume. Ive seen hip hop heads that cant even comprehend what hes talking about cause it has to do with something far beyond outside the realm of just a limited life, so you have guys like Mos Def introducing him as a 'poet' Saul in Black Stacey lets all the MC's know.
@Psychedelic925 Saul identifies himself as a 'poet', among other things (actor, musician, poet). I haven't seen the introduction you're referring to, maybe it was out of place, but usually introducing him as a poet is not incorrect.
@mdsklls You're missing the entire point ofcourse hes a poet like most rappers or MC's my point was he is NOT introduced as a MC. Which he should be as well because he is the best.
the beat he spits this verse over on hes Album #2 is hot someone ther should start beat boxing....
five senses can not sence the fact of our existance, in fact thats the only fact fax me a fact im tella gram a hallo gram and tell him to phone the sun of man...

@WordzSpoken I don't think they are so shocked, its an international music festival not a Sunday school gathering, its a nice verse though true.
