So.

Kanye latest, amazing, album, has a lot of slave music. And talking with my friend the other day. He was like. Yeah man. all that shit is fucked. . . and you know what. The Slave traders even started breeding the captured slaves to make bigger and stonger Black, African Slaves.! ! ! ! and then I remembered some of Nas’ lyrics when he goes sayin, props to all the ballin niggas who’re 7 foot some and come from slave master dealin.. . . .or something like that.. . . it so hurtful.

…. . I heard things can change in the future. And that it is possible that we live treating each other as if we were specially created and unique and full of dignity, meriting respect.. . .. . I heard we can make it happen, and leave that world to our kids, and our kids’ kids.



That's that crack music,
crack music,
that real black music,
black music

Our father,
give us this
day our daily bread ...
give us these days
and take our daily
read,
See I done did all this ole bullshit
And to atone
I throw a little somethin, somethin on the pulpit.
We took that shit,
measured it
and then cooked that shit
And what we gave back
was crack music
And now we ooze it
through they nooks and crannies
So our mammas
aint got to be they cooks and nannies
And we gonna repo everything
they ever took from grammy
Now the former slaves
trade hooks
for grammies
This dark diction
has become America's addiction
those who ain't even black
use it.

- Kanye West (last bit of the song Crack Music)
