In my opinion, if you dont know who this man is, you don't know the beginning of hiphop (this is soul music/acid jazz - not even hiphop yet!). We aren't talking about the state now...we are talking about how it was used back then. From Public Enemy to NWA to even Pete Rock. Many concidered this man, one the of founders of Rap--moreover Rap that sent out a message. I concider him the godfather, even though some say Muhammed Ali helped in the publicizing of rap (sting like a bee poetic intimidation). He has been sampled by many, but sampled out of the respect of the man.
The revolution will not be televised, this quote was also used by Common in his track "6th Sense".
"Home is where the hatred is" is a very deep song about a man and his struggle with home. Home being either where he is...or home being is drug addiction and how he finds the feeling of "home" when he is high.
Either or, this vinyl is very hard to find. So if i were you, get the re-issue cd at Amazon.
Thanks for Reading.
