"99" was initially an idea brought to the table by Video Directors/Creators the Locker Partners. Noticing the position (& constant social media blitzes) of Mane Rok, the duo who had talked with the MC prior about a linking for a project, approached Mane to see if making a Hip-Hop track with multiple MC's on it giving their take on the movement was possible. No stranger to rounding up groups for work, Mane immediately approached his cohorts Bravo One (who's body of work with his group One Eyed Kings is laced with "politically" charged material,) as well as his most recent collaborator Dyalekt (Diamond Boiz.) Dyalekt handled the production on the track while also lending his hoodtelligent vocals. While recognizing the idea that "99%" is a rather encompassing number, Mane then reached out to The ReMINDers stand out vocalist Aja Black to add her take, which led to the including Denver's political and musical champions Jonny 5 of the Flobots and T Minus Katlyn of Wheel Chair Sportscamp. In essence, giving a representation of WHO the "99" are.

  • @00movieman00 Lol, I dont think you're fully comprehending what I'm trying to tell you. The clothes arent "designer", or anything similar, they're just clothes. The song is free for promotion. I told you the instrumental was donated...I donated it. I made it. The video production was donated by the directors. No one said anything about money. It's just artistic expression. Still, be judgemental if you'd rather.

  • @00movieman00 Designer clothes? Because we look presentable? It's a music video, presentation is everything. My (Dyalekt, first up) outfit probably didn't cost more than $25. Way to assume, though. Now, what album? The song is FREE. The video is watchable & downloadable for FREE. Video production was donated. Instrumental was donated. Our time was donated. So that's not a valid either. Nice assumptions though. So if you make 3 points and 2 are proven invalid, what's that say about your final 1?

  • IF ANYONE IS LOOKING FOR LYRICS JUST GOOGLE THEM THEY ARE ON TUMBLR! AND UHHHHHHHH JONNY5 FOR PRESIDENT

  • @WanaCare2 okkkk

  • Pres. Obama & Colo. Senators Udall & Bennet should be fired-impeached for passing the National Defense Authorization Act (Look up on Thomas Congressional Lib.) (NDAA), which will enable present and future presidents to disappear, torture anyone in the World from NY to Afghanistan and From Alaska to Austria without evidence of any crime and without a trial. This was a guaranteed right in the Bill of Rights/Constitution.

  • @PixelizedProduction -Could only respond with reply: I'm half way through, Sign the petition for the cleared in 2007 tortured Guantanamo detainees please do so quickly-the ending date to present it to Pres. Obama is in Feb.

  • PLEASE DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN HAVE THE LYRICS??? THANKS FOR REPLIES!!!

  • @JClassTV I know it just kills you Yanks to think that your not the center of attention. And you didn't make any point at all lol, So what if You buy cheep designer fakes, or if the song is free, That's worse, because it could be used to raise money for the poor, but instead the money goes down the drain on a silly little gangster rap. Sigh.., Next!

  • @JClassTV So while people are starving, ur taking donations for a music video... way to make yourself look worse LOL. And it would have been a much more dynamic 'presentation' if it was done in normal person attire. Maybe you should have taken the donation money, and set up a Soup Kitchen, that would help a lot more people, I'm a much more humble way. And Regardless of previous points, the worlds eye is not set on you. It's set on the middle east, the Arab spring is much more important than OWS.

  • @ThatShitILike ghuuh is there even any point on telling you thats a Cliche.
