Gangsta rap does have a message, though. The message is, "This is what's happening in the ghettos, society." The antipathy to police and the violence explicitly detailed is what happens when you close off people from the ghetto to the hope of a better life, and gangstas rule the streets as long as prohibition and drug war is a thing. Youths who feel hopeless become gang members, and gangsta rap doesn't shy from that issue if you listen to the lyrics.
Blacks, Whites Latinos...we all are slaves to the system and we all need to stand up against the illuminati ...I was younger when these songs came out and I always thought that the main battle was to overcome racism...now, seeing many white people suffering has made me realize that we are all in the same boat..Economic oppression knows no race, maybe social racism is different...we ALL need to stand up against the corrupt Governments, simple as!
Join the zeitgeist movement! google it! it's awesome. free humanity now! I also recommend looking up "the venus project" it is an example of how our world could be like if we wanted to.
ummm, I know maybe this is supposed to be a current sound, but the opening guy's rapping is not what I want to hear. When Chuck D comes in, it's what I want to hear.
Griff is a much better rapper than I realized. Dump the first guy.
Revolution is being called out on every city street corner in America.instead of a weapon in our hands we have their weapons that are used against us either in a phone or I-pod etc.oh yes we cry ------LULLABY!!!!!!!!!! wake up snap out of the trap set before us...If we stand for nothing ,we will fall and never be able to come back.
This song isnt just for the 70's it goes for now also we are in a revolution against the same government..Check out New World Order once again we as people all colors no lines one world REPRESENT AND WAKE UP! check out also Bohemian grove also they are here but more people must wake up to whats really going on! REVOLUTION!
BREAKING NEWS:It seems presidential canindate Barrack hussein Obama was caught on video robbing a 7-11.On being searched after his arrest he was found in possesion of crack cocaine and PCP.Experts say his mixed blood has been in conflict for years and the negro blood finally made him chimp out.He also began flinging his poop at guards when being booked in to the county jail.More on this at 11:00.
This song is real, it's time for people to RISE. How are the american people gonna let this TERRORIST run their contry for 9 years and say NOTHING!!!! Kenya said "FU" to their dictator and so does almost every other country in the world when people have had it, but this Tyrant has stayed in office while people do NOTHING!!!!! just keep waltzing along while innocent people in Iraq die and gas prices get manipulated. People just sit there an complain...DO SOMETHING!!!! GET MAD!!!! SO SOMETHING!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Actually, no president in the history of the United states has done so much for Africa than the current one. Billions upon billions have been given in aid and debt cancelation, along with billions for the military to train African nations to protect themselves from terrorism and anti corruption. Also he presided over the strongest economy in history, while keeping the minority employment rate the highest it has been in years. Fight from strength, get the facts strait, ignorance is not power.
Nazi propaganda. Bush undermines Africa's ability to gain access to affordable medicines.
The Bush administration has a simple choice: Heed their paymasters in the brand-name pharmaceutical industry, or deliver on their commitment to provide treatment to two million people with HIV/AIDS. They can't do both.
Almost but not quite, the truth is that 73% of the drugs bought by "PEPFAR" are generic and not made by the giant pharmaceutical companies. The reason that it is not 100% is because of a turf war between the WHO and the FDA which has nothing to do with Bush. As for the funding 18 Billion has been procured in the last five years, another 30 billion for 2008-2013 with most of it now planed for prevention programs (non pharmaceutical). Get the facts strait before you argue, fight from strength.
What Bush has done for Africa is the best thing Bush has done as president. But considering that his presidency has been a total and complete failure, it says nothing.
Two-thirds of the money for the prevention of the sexual spread of HIV goes to abstinence, leaving little money where it's needed and would make a difference.
Actually, it is only 33% that go to the requirement of abstinence education (which a great number of Americans support abstinence over condom education) and not Two-Thirds. As for the "complete failure" statement, the last president was impeached in the house, kept Saddam in power by sabotaging the CIA planned coup in 1992, thus killing 10,000 Kurds and giving the U.S the moniker "Paper Tiger" in the Middle East. Dismantled the military and paved the way for 9/11. Ended on a major recession.
First president to establish a legal defense fund. First president to be held in contempt of court- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions - Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad- First president disbarred from the US Supreme Court and a state court.
The point is that it is the system itself that is the problem. Even FDR had an under 30% approval rating during WWII and he was considered America's greatest president. PE says fight this Satanic system in whole.
Evertz was a Log Cabin Republican who trusted in the administration's good faith, and thus was quite shocked to see how HIV prevention funding turned into a patronage system for the religious right.
HIV-activists have spent the last two decades trying to show that condoms aren't just for prostitutes and the promiscuous; Bush has undone much of their work.
Clinton cont...The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance - Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates* - Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation - - Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify - Most number of witnesses to die suddenly - First president sued for sexual harassment. - First president accused of rape. - First first lady to come under criminal investigation cont...
racism was institutionalized origianlly in the united states to keep the lower classes fighting each other istead of taking group political action. its also the reason the middle class has been nurtered and developed, as a buffer againts the poor.
the white servants, slaves and poor of the collonies tried like 24 times to rebel and take over power from the land barrons, but they were violently killed by slow burning and other means of execution. they even tried after the revolution which was sponcered by the landowners. Sam adams once said "In monarchy the crime of treason may admit of being pardoned or lightly punished, but the man who dares rebel againts the laws of a republic ought to suffer death." he then passed the riot act.
We have crush the power sorce of the corporate oppressers.We have to demand the federal reserve be obolished. The federal reserve is the largest PRIVATE corporation and by far the most dangerous to all of our liberties. Its owners have controlled our government since the days of president Andrew Jackson who abolished the private central bank scheme in his term in office.If you want more info you can watch online "freedom to fascism" by Aaron Russo or read the book "the web of debt"by Ellen Brown
'' when the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace" Jimi Hendrix.
There's no skin in heaven; so forgive and step forward to the problem at hand. REVOLUTION. Vote RON PAUL or OBAMA, but don't just pick Obama because.......
Werd...Matter of fact dont vote ron paul dont vote for anyone. Just stand the fuck up and start walking to washington. What will the president do if 3/4 of america is standing at his door wanting a head? The revolution has started the next right they take away will start a civil war and the revolution will win.
When it comes to the powers that be. it isn't so much about color as it is about everyone being free.separation of classes continue to separate. Difference of the common good and the special interest of those pullin the strings, in congress, in the executive brnch, in your own town. who educates for progressive action? who acts on progresive ideas? The public becomes the enemy when the private classes don't support the common good.public is the majority, the majority rules when properly informed
The only hope for America, no the planet, is when we stop using skin color as way to judge who somebody is. This is probably the best rap song this year. Gotta love PE.
There's an old Native American prophecy I read a while back... it says how the only hope for America's TRUE freedom lays within the strength of the black/african american community ... that's where I truly believe and pray it will start...

Gangsta rap's message is for young black men to become niggas then for niggas to kill niggas over everyday bullshit while fearing the Police.
To sell drugs to our own people, terrorize our own communities with violence & crime to disrespect our women.
For women it's to be hoes, gold diggers, strippers- anything for the come up.
The dollar is the end all & be all in gangsta rap.
The Hood is a marketing gimmick.
