  • Are all the real Cats dead?! Whas up? No posts for the Poets?You youngbloods don't know nothin bout Poetry? Music? Real sufferin ? What its really all about...

    Guess not Poets. The intellectual thinkin man and woman is dead...

  • After watching the Pharoah Sanders + Poets clip, I've spent the last half hour listening to these cats. Great stuff - I mean, lots of energy mojo and political commentary.

    Think I'm gonna hafta see if I can find their albums...

  • much love to the ol head brothas in south philly who turned me on , as a youth to this kind of educating, historical music

  • The last poets, invented RAP...soul in this!

  • When I was a kid this was the music I used to dig

    And today it's still that way

    So they pay me handsomely

    to hear what I say

    I owe it all to yawl

    The Last Poets the true heroes of my day

    You indeed gave me plenty of the knowledge and inspiration

    For the path I've taken

    So this a poetic way to say thank you

  • in 2060,they will say how did hip hop start,someone better rewind a hundred years to ths,cos it is the REAL ROOTS.Luv ya NYC and i miss ya

  • Groovy Man!!!!!!!!

  • The Forgotten Ones....

  • @nocturnecminor We're not dead, we in Coma; A long lasting comma, waiting to be woken.. Released from our sentence, when whispers of revolution evolve to be spoken.. So don't be sleeping on us. For a time will come when our souls will re-ascend like birds, released from our subconscious enraged cage of ignorance..Too used to glorifying insolence..Don't lose faith in mankind, for there's always someone on the grind..even in the new generation..The Realness will bring forth its true representation

  • @nocturnecminor, not dead, but underground...diggin the sound...trying to see if anyone else is around like me..people who wanna be free...freedom of life freedom of song...that rhythm just keeps keepin on..lol

  • Maybe one day we can see how Divine we are... I mean everyone else knows it without saying it. But all u got to do is listen to cats like this, Coltrane, Ella, James, Aretha, Rakim, and and it's obvious... we are the chosen people made to suffer and prevail like no other... as we are the example for the world to see... as we give soul, color, spice, flavor and life to the world. & been doin it for a looonnnggg tgime. Damn I luv my Blackness

  • Peace,some real classic FUNK.

    Not this fake,sell-out cheesy CON temporary safe slave stuff that they play on these

    fake,r and b so-called black radio stations
