  • @adamsee123 adam, you seem to have the inferiority complex about the white thang. I have a problem with any d-bag of any culture that can't keep a beat and doesn't know when to kill the noise. I've been a DJ for over 15 years, so I'm admittedly more of a critic than most but would be surprised if any DJ/MC/drummer wouldn't agree. Protest or anywhere, when music is being played/made by a master, the amateurs need to shut the f up, listen and learn. Remember that.

  • The off beat drums are terrible!!! Hippie types I love you and know your hearts are in the right place but too often your #@$%ing annoying. Hip Hop is always(almost almost) in a 4/4 with the snare hitting on the 3. Get it together or stop playing when a Hip Hop Hero is trying to spit!!! Making white people, my people look rhythmn-less! D-bags!

Everybody here with a camera, everybody here with a computer, everybody here with a smartphone, everybody here with a voice: DO YOUR JOB and spread the word..." (continued)

  • @helrazer19devil re: who made those [camera phones]. People made them. Workers on assembly lines. Likely, workers in China, who get paid close to nothing with no protections from abuse or injury, all for the sake of maximizing profits for the 1%.

  • dont let socialists take over your movement. Taxing everyone solves nothing.

  • these occupy people are so full of it. all of them have their camera phones out recording this event. Who made those? Corporations! lol Also, dont think its a coincidence that Kweli has a CD coming out soon (maybe already came out). Unreal amount of hypocrisy out there

    helrazer19devil 4 months ago

  • @helrazer19devil That is such a weak argument. Do you expect them to go back to caveman times to protest? Corporations can do good and bad things. OWS is not anti-corporate or anti-capitalist specifically. It's a movement that welcomes capitalists, anti-capitalists, pro-corporation, anti-corporation, Republican, Democrat, red, blue etc. Read and get informed.

  • really sad to see a rapper exploiting this to promote his music

    TheStartSomething 4 months ago

  • @TheStartSomething what the hell are you talking about. This is what his music has been about for years. and picking sides with the protesters wouldnt be good promotion to most artists anyway
