Ouch, I should say the Che part I don't like.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you

Che Guevara is a dual figure, he is a hero for some and a villain to others. I never cared much for him, but some of my friends like him - It's mostly a symbol against the establishment I think. Lenin was a dictator, but he was also grounded on firm principles against the oppressive system at the time and knew how religion was used to control masses. - Again, a dual figure. If we think about it, there isn't an enormous difference on liking Che Guevara and any American president, considering most continue to allow invasions and basically "genocide" of indigenous people of the middle east and other places.

Hip-Hop is kind of hit and miss with me. I love tracks that have a sick beat behind them and when the rapper has really good flow. I don't care much about wether the lyrics are super deep or not, as long as they make sense. What I hate are the Lil Waynes and the (sometimes) Nicki Minajes who just belch out incoherent noises from their mouths over a pretty flat non-existent beat.
Love me some Kanye West and Drake, always. But I guess that's just the mainstream shit most real hip-hop fans find basic lmao

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

Mos Def
 I don't even care that he thinks the moon landing was a hoax. Edit: I suppose out of respect I should call him Yasiin Bey now. Hard habit to get into.I am pleased to see a rap thread. I'll be back. |
