#you havent listened to a kanye west album

[barnbridges]

i dont give a shit about the public's opinion on "modern eminem" because some of yall dont know this man has albums, it is fair to listen to kamikaze and love the way you lie and say that's a downgrade.

but when you call yourself a "hiphop fan" and don't know who ja rule is and what role he played in eminem's early career you can walk OUT.

i think the lst few months is just proof that nobody listens to hiphop anymore sorry.

#SONICSUNDAY

#JuneIs #BlackMusicMonth

The track list of Black music that I havent heard is endless. Gil Scott Heron made so much music for the movement. To think that The Revolution Will Not Be Televised is the only song he made is to belittle a giant into an ant.

The 6'2" piano player / singer / song writer tracks include Pieces of a Man (the title song for the album his known poem was on), Johanasburg, Winter In America, Waiting for the Axe to Fall, Whitie on the Moon, Almost Lost Detroit, (Ray)Gun, and countless others.

Many of you heard him first in #KanyeWest short film reciting the poem at the end "Who Will Survive in America". Kanye West & @common have samples for new tracks, by the same name possibly, from his original "Home."

Born in Chicago, raised in the South, The Bronx, & lived his adult in DC and Harlem NY where he passed in 2011.

Active all the way through the 1980's his discography is incredibly long with over 10 albums.

Then Prince hit the scene.

Carrying on the legacy of making social justice and esoteric consciousness sound like a party, he far more than just the "Love Sexy" media is comfortable with.

For A More in Depth Idea,

Listen to the #PrincePodcast episodes by @podcastjuice ft. the artists firt band leader and older cousin Chazz Smith.

His tracks include Baltimore, Bold Generation (1999 album), Dreamers & Colonized Mind (Lotus Flow3r album), Affirmations l, ll, & lll (Art Official Age) released after his pasing. After he frees himself from Warner Bros, he droped Black Sweat (3121 album) because Black men and women together is a revolutionary legacy, New World & Slave, (Emancipation) Sign of the Times and the beat goes on.

Very subtle, but definitely there!

Listen to the lyrics
