Lupe Fiasco: "I wanted to flip 'Jesus Walks' when it first came out, and I did a record called 'Muhammad Walks' because I'm a Muslim, so I flipped it from a Muslim perspective."
'Superior' atheiest beliefs...as displayed by Bill here....will always prevent the acceptance of reality and truth. Props to individuals & artists like Mos Def for exercising their rights to speak up against the rubbish fed to us by fake politicians and governments....
and....erm...big foot comment was jokes...!
Lyrically amazing track....he flips verbs and nouns so well..... bars that flow without seam, transitioning from detailed description to elaborate story to elongated metaphor fluidly.
"Uncle Sam Goddamn", Brother Ali's riveting take on America's checkered past...reminding us of the American political system's addiction to war and that the taxes are an effective funding of crack heads...he believes that the actualities of life are more important to rap about...a true poet...with excellent flow...I can see the revival of true hip-hop...what do you think?!
Ponder over the lyrics...few can fathom them....
