Marx would have been proud. I mean that as a compliment. In America, you have to add that disclaimer or people will think you're being sarcastic. Fuck capitalism.
I want to say I’m always surprised to find the average person not supporting their self-interest, but realistically I’m not. I do think the American dream of “my number coming up” is slowly deteriorating.
CEO's convinced people unions were corrupt and workers were better off without them.. now people think "gig" work for massive companies is a good thing..
if you are watching this video while selling your labour for wages you have been visited by the bolshevist skeltal proletarian revolution will come to you but only if you post 'thank comrade skeltal' in this thread
"toss a Coin in the river, jump in If you find it, you can swim" Perfect metaphor for the unfair treatment's for the loser and reward's for the winner under capitalism
Interesting how changing from an indefinite article to a definite article can change the meaning of "shit" so radically. Oh, and I agree, this video is the shit.
I've seen this video a hundred times, but I only just now noticed the disclaimer in the beginning. Does anyone know why that's there or if the Rosie McCann's mentioned is the one in Santa Cruz? Not too far from Oakland but idk if maybe there's a different pub with the same name closer in the Bay. Just don't know what the connection is, thought it was odd.

Makes me wonder why this gets no airplay & instead we get player,pimp, drug kingpin, gold teeth, diamonds in my chain, cash, strippers, get your money bullshit.
Yes, that was my original problem with hip hop. I could find something to like in just about every form of music there is, but all that "I got mine, see?" and "Look how many girls want me" made me disgusted. It took a lot of time and some happy accidents to connect me with the *good* stuff. I love that Boots writes his own riffs and doesn't depend on loops by other people. It reminds me of all the cool funk that you could hear in the 70's and early 80's.
gat=gun I am going to give you a gun, but for the record (if someone asks you) it is not a gun, in other words, tell them that I gave you something else or basically, if they ask you, tell them that I never gave you a gun.
if you were offered two options : (1) accept the elites' invite to join their side and get wealth and leave your comrades, or (2) refuse the invite and wealth and stay loyal to your comrades? which one would ya choose?
easy. take 1, and then demolish them from the inside. all i need is to get invited to any of the weird sex things they do and instantly like 80% of the elites are demolished
Fuck, I finally read the description. This whole time I thought it was the official video. It's fucking good. Any word on of the Coup has seen it? They are good folks, they'd dig it I bet.
Mannnn if every rapper talked like this thered be some real direct action... There is a good reason most rappers only talk about drug use, sex and making barely getting by in the hood seem like a romantic way of life to white kids in the suburbs.... Thus perpetuating racism by making white parents disgusted by blackness and white kids jealous and indifferent of an existence shaped by poverty and oppression. It's definitely getting better though this more recent generation of rappers dropping acid and shit seem to really understand how their music shapes American culture... I feel like half the reason the war on drugs got so bad is because gangster rap was the perfect propoganda tool for the white man to opress with utter impunity. Idk I'm sure I'll get shit for this so I'll shut up now
+Richard Ferris There's no connection and this isn't an official music video, it's just some random archive footage (non-copyrighted) a fan put together.
I didn't think anyone still read Adbusters, blimey. If spending money is like voting, what thing can you buy that is like not wanting to vote at all? Capitalism isn't determined by your shopping choices but the social relations between those that own the means of production, businesses and the goods and those that don't. Making your own soap doesnae change that.
I love it how this drives home the f*cking depraved greed of these destroyers of everything good on this planet. Nothing is sacred, everything is for sale. Ugh.

For once, I thought Immortal Technique, Brother Ali, etc (I can't name all of them, but I grouped them into 'leftist' camp) were the undisputed rapper when it comes to political rap (blunt lyrics, "in your face" delivery, music is consistent with political beliefs). I admit I didn't find the instrumental that catchy or the delivery stimulating but the lyrics is well-elaborated. It's definitely the opposite recipe from rappers that I previously mentioned but lead to the same conclusion, that is, criticism of capitalism.
I like this kind better. It fills you with the joy and hopefulness of revolution instead of just anger and frustration about the way things are.
I mean, Boots is straight communist, so it makes sense for his lyrics to hit so hard. Dude's a fucking badass.
i adore immortal technique but when i’m not in the mood for crying, the coup is the way to go
I love this song but I'm sad because we're even more divided than we were when this song was made.
The new Internationale!
Buddyhead brought me here✌🏻🫶🏻
Wow always saw this cd ( aging myself) but never bought it.
Love political woke hip hop
We need to start a movement and stop listening to this clown music out here
Bezos Musk Koch Brothers Sheldon Anderson etc etc
Murdoch
Ya just gotta love the title!!!
[Chorus]
We've got 5 million ways to kill a CEO
Slap him up and shake him up and then you know
Let him off the flo', then bait him with the dough
You can do it funk or do it disco (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Y'know how this go
We've got 5 million ways to kill a CEO
Slap him up and shake him up and then you know
Let him off the flo', then bait him with the dough
You can do it funk or do it disco (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Y'know how this go
[Verse 1]
Well I hope you testify that it was worth your waitin'
On the turf debatin' how to get it percolatin'
He workin' you while we happy just to work a day
But I'ma slap him 'til my blood starts circulatin' (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Do your checks have elasticity?
Did they cut off yo' 'lectricity?
Did you scream and yell explicitly?
Force the boss into complicity (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
I'm a white chalk stencil but I push a pencil
Rollin' dope fiend rentals through your residential
Broke as fuck, eatin' lentils with no utensil
Finna teach pimp class with a ho credential (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
They own sweat shops, pet cops, and fields of cola
Murder babies with they molars on the areola
Control the Pope, Dalai Lama, Holy Rollers, and the Ayatollah
Bump this rollin' in your bucket or your new Corolla
Well you might catch me on the scenic route, with my penis out
Yellin', "Twamps for the executives with the meanest mouth!"
Wanna know what this demeanor's 'bout? City tried to clean us out
Green is clout, shut 'em down, they ain't never seen a drought
You interviewed but they ain't callin' you back
And for the record I ain't called it a gat
But tuck this in the small of your back
Wait in the bathroom stall 'til I tap (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
[Verse 2]
'Cept this game ain't slow, it's the creeper
If you a janitor, get a street sweeper
Ugly is even skin deeper
If you can't get the Pres, get the VeePer (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
They made the murder scene before there was a coroner
I mighta been born here but I'm a foreigner
Spillin' swigs for victims of pigs and Afeni's kid
Flip off the lid, who you pourin fo'? (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
You too could be a corporate green killer, bean spiller (uh)
"Gangster of Love" just like Steve Miller
They wear skivvies that's made of chinchilla
Factory in Mexico, bought a spring villa
I'm from the land where the Panthers grew
You know the city and the avenue
If you the boss we'll be smabbin' through, and we'll be grabbin' you
To say, "Whassup with the ra-venue?" (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
And if you feel it we can even try to seal it with the...
[Verse 3]
Tell him it's a boom in child prostitution
When he show up at the stroll, give him lead restitution
You could throw a twenty in a vat o' hot oil
When he jump in after it watch him boil (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Toss a dollar in the river and when he jump in
If you can find he can swim
Put lead boots on him and do it again! You and a friend
Videotape and the party don't end (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Tell that boogers be sellin' like crack
He gon' put the little baggies in his nose and suffocate like that
Put a fifty in the barrel of a gun
When he try to suck it out, a-ha, well you know this one (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Make sure you ain't got no priors
Don't tell 'em that we conspired
We could let him try to change a flat tire
Or we could all at once retire (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
There are just a few of the...
Thanks!

Love this song, love the video you made for it, and love the comments section here.
If the people don't have a peoples army the people have nothing
Nice clip!! Well done, gives the song the respect it deserves.
Big love to the coup from Ireland, let's eat the rich
Makes me wonder why this gets no airplay & instead we get player,pimp, drug kingpin, gold teeth, diamonds in my chain, cash, strippers, get your money bullshit.
Capitalism.
Yes, that was my original problem with hip hop. I could find something to like in just about every form of music there is, but all that "I got mine, see?" and "Look how many girls want me" made me disgusted. It took a lot of time and some happy accidents to connect me with the *good* stuff. I love that Boots writes his own riffs and doesn't depend on loops by other people. It reminds me of all the cool funk that you could hear in the 70's and early 80's.
Uploader dropped this masterpiece and dipped
Complained about unpaid overtime, got laid off. You know what song I went to first.
"Tell him that boogers be sellin' like crack hes gon' put the little baggies in his nose, and suffocate like that".
Haha I'm just at that part when I came across your comment 3:30
“For the record I never called it a gat” beside being awesome what does that mean
gat=gun
I am going to give you a gun, but for the record (if someone asks you) it is not a gun, in other words, tell them that I gave you something else or basically, if they ask you, tell them that I never gave you a gun.
also referencing gatling guns I reckon
if you were offered two options :
(1) accept the elites' invite to join their side and get wealth and leave your comrades, or
(2) refuse the invite and wealth and stay loyal to your comrades?
which one would ya choose?
easy. take 1, and then demolish them from the inside. all i need is to get invited to any of the weird sex things they do and instantly like 80% of the elites are demolished
Revolution when?
New anthem of 2020
Proper lyrics!
This beat breaks the basic music rules and yet its awesome.
I love the beat
This song is actually a cover. Look it up.
Hydraulic pump by P funk allstars if my memory serves me right . 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Those are the best kinds of songs
@@jimjohnson569 I would more call this a sample.
This video is a real achievement. Congratulations. Better than many videos one sees on MTV.
Is there still an MTV and do they still show videos?
Fuck, I finally read the description. This whole time I thought it was the official video. It's fucking good. Any word on of the Coup has seen it? They are good folks, they'd dig it I bet.
Eat The Rich!
i am not watching this song as a cover for research on how to kill CEO Stephen Price.
Mannnn if every rapper talked like this thered be some real direct action... There is a good reason most rappers only talk about drug use, sex and making barely getting by in the hood seem like a romantic way of life to white kids in the suburbs.... Thus perpetuating racism by making white parents disgusted by blackness and white kids jealous and indifferent of an existence shaped by poverty and oppression. It's definitely getting better though this more recent generation of rappers dropping acid and shit seem to really understand how their music shapes American culture... I feel like half the reason the war on drugs got so bad is because gangster rap was the perfect propoganda tool for the white man to opress with utter impunity. Idk I'm sure I'll get shit for this so I'll shut up now
Dedicated to the 2015 bilderberg meeting attendees !
How did this track not break a million?!
Only posted 15 years ago dude. There's still time 😎
On the way
This video’s 13 years old and the lip syncing remains impressive
what's the reactionary cartoon footage from?
Next generation of Disposable Heroes.
This song lists a handful of methods at most
Just out of interest, what's the connection with Rosie McCann's Irish Pub and Restaurant?
+Richard Ferris Always wondered the same thing...
+Richard Ferris There's no connection and this isn't an official music video, it's just
some random archive footage (non-copyrighted) a fan put together.

The time for this song has arrived...

Fastlane, ep.14 Aquariu's bowling 🔥 🔥 🔥
I didn't think anyone still read Adbusters, blimey. If spending money is like voting, what thing can you buy that is like not wanting to vote at all? Capitalism isn't determined by your shopping choices but the social relations between those that own the means of production, businesses and the goods and those that don't. Making your own soap doesnae change that.
DJ Pam The Funktress aka Purple Pam...RIP
...that sent chilled down my spin... seriously! I didn't know as I set here in Berkeley (raised in Oakland)... and I am new junkie, wow! (050218).

The Funk is real with this one

45 and doing the same. This song and album used to rock that cassette player back when it first came out.
I love it how this drives home the f*cking depraved greed of these destroyers of everything good on this planet. Nothing is sacred, everything is for sale. Ugh.
Hello from Minneapolis Minnesota United States 2024 hey corporate start treating your employees with decent dignity instead of as resources to exploit
This song = *Activision in a Nutshell*
Old white guy... Broke as fuck and I support this message... Damn I have to go split wood again to keep the house warm
The time signature is crazy on this...boots is a genius
You FUCKIN SLAYED THIS!!!!!!!
Soon?
Thank you. Been looking for this song for a while now. So great :0 :) :)
The national debt is growing by a LOT more than that now. $12,000 per minute is by comparison rather insignificant.
Video is soooo coool!
