DJ Green Lantern produced a song called "Bin Laden", featuring revolutionary hip-hop artist Immortal Technique, Mos Def, and Eminem.
Lyrics-------------------
Man, you hear this bullshit they be talkin'
Every day, man
It's like these motherfuckers is just like professional liars
YouknowwhatI'msayin? It's wild
Listen
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)
Tell the truth, nigga
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)
I pledge no allegiance, nigga fuck the president's speeches
I'm baptized by America and covered in leeches
The dirty water that bleaches your soul and your facial features
Drownin' you in propaganda that they spit through the speakers
And if you speak about the evil that the government does
The Patriot Act'll track you to the type of your blood
They try to frame you, and say you was tryna sell drugs
And throw a federal indictment on niggaz to show you love
This shit is run by fake Christians, fake politicians
Look at they mansions, then look at the conditions you live in
All they talk about is terrorism on television
They tell you to listen, but they don't really tell you they mission
They funded Al-Qaeda, and now they blame the Muslim religion
Even though Bin Laden, was a CIA tactician
They gave him billions of dollars, and they funded his purpose
Fahrenheit 9/11, that's just scratchin' the surface
They say the rebels in Iraq still fight for Saddam
But that's bullshit, I'll show you why it's totally wrong
Cuz if another country invaded the hood tonight
It'd be warfare through Harlem, and Washington Heights
I wouldn't be fightin' for Bush or White America's dream
I'd be fightin' for my people's survival and self-esteem
I wouldn't fight for racist churches from the south, my nigga
I'd be fightin' to keep the occupation out, my nigga
You ever clock someone who talk shit, or look at you wrong?
Imagine if they shot at you, and was rapin' your moms
And of course Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons
We sold him that shit, after Ronald Reagan's election
Mercenary contractors fightin' a new era
Corporate military bankin' off the war on terror
They controllin' the ghetto, with the failed attack
Tryna distract the fact that they engineerin' the crack
So I'm strapped like Lee Malvo holdin' a sniper rifle
These bullets'll touch your kids, and I don't mean like Michael
Your body be sent to the morgue, stripped down and recycled
I fire on house niggaz that support you and like you
Cuz innocent people get murdered in the struggle daily
And poor people never get shit and struggle daily
This ain't no alien conspiracy theory, this shit is real
Written on the dollar underneath the Masonic seal
(I don't rap for dead presidents
I'd rather see the president dead
It's never been said but I set precedents)
(Shady Records was 80 seconds away from the towers
Some cowards fucked with the wrong building, they meant to hit ours)
Opinionated! sounds good but all the people producing this make money by sensationalizing violence. They are no different to the hypocrisy!
Making a buck from society's love of hate!

Good point, but i think the majority of people underestimate the power of television and radio, meaning people on both ends of the media.
Singeling out rappers is a bit easy, and also introduces a false generalization.
Blame the messenger, not for being a messenger, but for the message it brings. Its not about rappers, its about individuals.
Hypocrisy is ingrained with the fate of humans, we're all hypocrits one way or another.

Points.
1) It was widley publisiesd that the american government (The World Bank and the Federal reserve cartels) orchastraited and funded the 9/11 and the 7/7 attacks to gain public support to invade Iraq.
2) Who singled out rappers? No it is the individuals in this respect. at no point was H-H/G mentioned.you in fact singled me out and literally called me a Hater, I made no generalization and ask you to take back that statement! as it implies that I have racial issues!

Dude,.. your overreacting and confirming my statement on hypocrisy.
"you in fact singled me out"
I just replied to a comment,.. i didnt single you out. (again the message, not the messenger)
"and literally called me a Hater"
I didnt even figuratively call you a hater, i never implied hate either.
"it implies that I have racial issues! "
Well now i think you do, cause i never made a race related association, you just did that yourself.
So why dont you take your last statement back?
