The UK scene has the same love-hate relationship with Charlie that you are cultivating. Yes - he does obnoxiously scream down the mic every show but he is also the only DJ on the BBC who'd let Lowkey drop bars for 10 mins straight.
Yeah I feel like that far outweighs him being loud 👌
I'll always respect him for that. Real dude
Exactly. Charlie has done loads for the scene unlike Tim Westwood who is a real culture vulture
But he could still do that without shouting, it's not like Lowkey needs a bomb dropping high-pitched shrieking hype man, if you just give him ten minutes on the mic it's already plenty hype enough. I respect him for the artists he gets and the freedom he gives them, but I don't think justifies him being an annoying twat, it would be perfectly possible to do one without the other.
@@neilschulz1043 I agree with you generally but it is his show at the end of the day. He's known for doing this and it's part of what's funny about fitb like a USP almost
Its no surprise that Akala & Lowkey are very close friends. Same Spirit, Same Energy, 2 of a Kind
Much Love bro ✌🏾❤👊🏾
We need a lowkey reaction everyday to educate and empower the people.
This is what hip hop is... anti establishment and empowering for the people
Next Lowkey songs to react to
1. Terrorist?
2. Fire in the booth (first one)
3. Hand on your gun
4. Obama Nation part 1/2
Soundtrack to the struggle
Bars for my brother
Relatives. Maaan so many dope Lowkey tracks. In due time
PLLEEEAAASSSEE do akala fitb part 4 it will blow your mind. Hands down the best fitb to date and many agree with this
Hell, I'd donate just to get this one done.
Please do hahaha!!
Already done it
They ain't lying! Akala Part 4.
@@IndiNiall. good man! I’ve been so desperate to see his reaction to it. I think it will blow his mind. Dope delivery, dope cadence, fire beats, insane bars, crazy energy. No complaints. Let’s get it
I saw Lowkey in Bristol last week, he came out after the gig to chat and shake the hand of every person there. Honestly the greatest guy.
Gotta love Lowkey 💜 . Thanks again for another great reaction.
I love that you're now having who's top 5 conundrum lol...
It’s about time..
wretch
Ghetts
Akala
Avelino
Lowkey
Kano
It gets tough like that.. 🤷♂️
@@phobsdsr4326 I don't get the whole Ghetts thang... controversial I know. Also whilst I hugely appreciate Akala he's far out in his own lane ...I have to be in a certain mood to tackle him lol.
So my 5 ... in a daily changing order are;
Dave, Lowkey, ocean wisdom, Wretch, then the final position flips between cadet/ Kano and lady leshurr (although Little Simz pushing herself into the mix too)
Thanks man!! Lowkey is a legend!
lowkey ft immortal technique - voices of the voiceless. US and UK artist link up
Also has the song with M1
I had the pleasure of chatting to low-key about 14 years ago at a gig in Peterborough UK, just before he dropped his track with Immortal Technique, always sick flows with some serious messages!!!!!
Before I watch this, yesssssss finally. So glad you got to this lmao. When you watch his first fitb just remember he stops to censor himself thats all. Mic Righteous and Akala here we comeee. Also get into more Vinnie Paz when you can. Thank you and have a nice one brother!
Do Lowkey Free Palestine pt3 ! 🇵🇸🙏
Super on point right now!
No free Israel
@@winstonchurchill5731 From what?

Should make it more clear that you're making a dumb joke in future lol

@@MrAkhalif I didn't know that but it doesn't surprise me. Man is a straight up don.
Dope bro..
Lowkey Ft Black The Ripper - Obama Nation 🔥
Great reaction bro,Lowkey really is on another level man 👊🔥
I love his face when he sees Charlie sloth in the video 😂
"What's commonsensical is sensible to question, what seems to be a lesson is intellectual repression"🔥🔥🔥🔥
if we understand our power they will never sleep.respect from greece
Πες τα αδερφέ.
‘Lobbing bricks like Asterix and Obelix’.. WTF!!🤦♂️
Amazing bar ... hardly ever gets a mention
palicooo only those who know will know lol. Lowkey can pull any bar out the hat and that comes with a wide range of knowledge. 🤯
That was absolutely fire! And you sir have my respect too 🔥💯
It was Lowkey who got me started listening to UK music, that must have been 10 years ago.
I appreciate that you are well read enough to catch all his references Lowkey is the kind of raper that gets better the more you know
For another rapping professor of philosophy, I think you'd like anything by Eyedea and Abilities, who were on Rhymesayers with Aesop Rock, Atmosphere, Bro. Ali, and Sage Francis. If you don't know him, he was known for being a battle, freestyle, intellectual/conscious, and speed rapper, Abilities being the DJ. I'd love to see your reaction to him and hear your input.
I agree completely ❤️
Sage Francis is great. Haven't listened to him in in a long time but when I used to Rollerblade his music was on all the edits
Loving your Lowkey reactions sir! You've got to do his song - 'Long Live Palestine' next! So topical and Lowkey was just speaking at a rally in support of Palestine in London last week
Man I love your reaction breakdown of Lowkeys lyrics. The second part of that performance is truly moving. Much respect
Yes he was talking about Grenfell
Crumpets are a yeast bread prepared over a griddle shaped in a ring mold and par cooked and then usually served toasted with butter. I would suggest the nearest American equivalent would be a toasted yeast pancake. Lowkey is a street hero he's amazing. He doesn't give an inch he's done so much even humanitarian work. He's not played on the radio he's literally done it himself he sells out venues we have so much talent here in the UK
Unless they stole it from you, they're not burning your flag, they're burning theirs, they bought it.
He is one of the best to come out of the UK simple. I think he has been discriminated because he's an Iraqi and people know this. The man is more conscious than all these fakers. He brings the essence of what rapping is about.
Lowkey is the best
Your reactions to Charlie 😂 me Everytime but we have to go through the pain of him screaming and dropping bomb effects to get to the pleasure of the talent 😂 😂 🇬🇧
You are also a great positive beacon
Lowkey is a GOD!!!!🙌🙌🙌 His back story is something else.
God doesn't die that is one of the definitions of God. You can't ascribe a meaning to what suits you. He would not like this if he heard this. Im only saying this because believing or disbelieving in God is a life and death matter. You should take it seriously because IFs AND BUTs can be true, what if God does exist and because He knows us more than we know what's right, a person can say what they like to God but its won't work. Like a kid saying to his parents I know better than you in life matters, parents will be like we got you hear and we know you better no matter what you say. I hope you understand the correct belief is not taking risks and that is to believe in God Alone and not to associate anything with Him. You may say how do you know what is right. This is the straight path and makes sense compared to selective beliefs that create confusions. It's what makes sense and what the neutral mind finds true peace in without like I said confusion.
@@thehatman3089 It's all love.
GOD
noun
1.
(in Christianity and other monotheistic religions) the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority; the supreme being.
2.
(in certain other religions) a superhuman being or spirit worshipped as having power over nature or human fortunes; a deity.
The Central Park 5 situation was so ridiculous, when they see us on Netflix made me angry
Lowkey is a top 5 lyricist just underrated AF
Yo bro enjoying your content so far not sure if you have already but you need to check out Akala thieves banquet
He wins.... Until you do Akala FITB pt 4!
And while you're at it, do Akala daily Duppy. I guarantee you won't be disappointed
Lowkey the revolutionary
Imagine being the officer asking this man to do a field sobriety test...
I love the way you see race as an "it is what it is" mentality. We're all people and people power is the peak of positivity 💗
I'm a 42 year old labourer. I weigh less than 9st but can shift heavy stuff better than anyone because I don't let my size get in the way of getting the job done.
Lowkey ft. Immortal technique voices of thr voiceless
Great reaction! Lowkey the GOAT from the UK. Straight facts. None of that trap and money nonsense talk.
Great reaction - most entertaining🙂 !! Akala Fitb's 2-4?
a crumpet is like an inch thick pancake, you make the batter and cook it in a frying pan using a ring, when it cooks you get bubbles in it which is perfect for holding all that butter. you should try them
Love your videos dude. I think you'll appreciate akalas fitb pt 4 even more than his priors!
Crumpet is in-between pancake and bread roll. I'm not sure there's equivalent in US or Spain you have butter or jam...or other toppings.
He’s the king. Dear listener album is special
Man! Hey MrLboyd... Thank you for the considerate and informative analysis , your deep reaction to Wake Up by RATM most definitely wasn’t lost on me. I agree, holy wordsmith - Lowkey is definitely a genius lyricist, with global knowing, clean showing and not an ounce of egotistical callousness. His love for humanity is hopeful and refreshing, and his grace and clarity is thorough, profound, well researched and perfectionist. If anyone wants to learn more about colonialism and genocide of Australian Indigenous Peoples, read Dark Emu by Bruce Pascoe for more on the untold history of evils... With that my bro, I just wanted you to know at 16:24 I choked while you spun, and at 29:17 my tears began to run. ❤️🌏💫 ✨🙏🏻
It cracks me up when Charlie sreams in your ear 😂
You should check out his album soundtrack to the struggle
Dude I love your channel. Thank you for keeping with the solid picks.
Great reaction bro.
You are the most knowledgeable person I have seen reacting to this.
I have just ordered rabbit proof fence based on your recommendation as does not seem to be on any streaming service.
El Pueblo Unido Jamás Será Vencido ✊️
With grenfell. Remember when experts do cremations it's known that sometimes a few teeth and solid bone like that don't burn up completely so they then have to grind them bones up separately. Cremators can be sued if they don't tell you the body when through this process
Trump basically gave East Jerusalem to Israel even though it has been promised as Palestine's capital (besides which it isn't his to give). Lowkey has been an avid supporter of the Palestinian cause. Would love you to do a reaction to "Long LIve Palestine 3"
PS. You might listen to 'McDonald Trump' and 'Obamanation 1 and 2' to see how he feels about US Presidents in general.
I, for one, really am loving your fire in the booth reactions. I've been watching a few of them, your mic righteous reactions along with the wretch 32 reaction. I'm from Manchester, England and really am surprised how well you pick up the slang, vocabulary and the bars. Keep up the great work.
I've also dono'd for part 1 :)
Thanks for the recommendation, Rabbit proof-fence unreal film
A crumpet is like an English Muffin, but it's more porous. It absorbs spreads better.
Great reaction bro.Have watched the Rabbit Proof fence,sad movie ( the longest man made structure on the planet ) Lowkey 🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥
He's an anti war activist. You should check out his album, The Soundtrack To The Struggle
I’m gonna ask again and again please man do Akala fire in the booth part 4 🙏
For anyone who doesn't know, Albert Einstein was a strong believer in socialism, and wrote an essay called 'Why Socialism?'. If you have no experience with socialism beyond what politicians tell you on the news, I recommend reading Einstein's message. He knew what was going on.
Do relatives next 💥
Love your reactions bro, thankyouu for the hard work,,, would love to see lowkey-voices of the voiceless
i think he's talking about Fire in the Booth when he says 'don't trivialize fire and bomb sounds'
Lowkey is something special..
Akala FITB pt.4 is my favourite but this is in top 5.
There is a show on netflix about the central park incident. it's called 'When they see us'
He also done part one where to done the alphabet from A-Z first dude. If u haven't already check it out, mans an absolute legend 🔥
Thanks for this dude! When he was talking about trivialising Fire and hearing bomb sounds it was a slight dig at the host Charlie Sloth and his “bomb dropping” just before that he was on about Grenfell
I haven’t the words good enough to describe what I think of Lowkey
32:26 the thing is you can be patriotic but instead of supporting that flag make a new one because that reason that flag is burned is because it stands for arrogance, genocide, imperialism, Godlessness, Racism, Greed and illegal occupation over Native American land and the blood of 2 Million Iraqis and the disabilities new born children in Japan experience till this day because of the bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki so tbh I think anyone who knows any true fact about America would burn that flag without hesitation
In awe at the "create muriels making mirrors of walls.. make you reflect .. mirrors AAAHHH-!!!!!
Yes! Finally!
There's a short series on Netflix about the Central Park Five. It's called When They See Us
If you're already putting Akala #1 after his part 1 wait til you get til part 4... And Lowkey will probably move up a spot or 2 after you do his part 1.
Boyds face at the end when charlie shouts WOWWWWWW😂
I told you this bloke is something else. I love hip hop that has messages he is so deep.
He has a nasty street side to if you enjoy things like this. Look up his Diss track on chipmunk.
Also not sure if I missed your reaction or if you have Done it but mic righteous fitb 1-2-3-4.
Also akala fitb 4
These guys are poets.
My favourite in order are.
Akala
Lowkey
Mic righteous
Wretch
Like to see any other rapper put same words together his class uk legend
So get this.... Mr Lboyd
I think I watched a only a few of your Harry Mack Reactions and 2-3 other videos and recently decided to subscribe to see if you ever get to Lowkey bc I was sure you would appreciate his overall artistry and contribution to HH community...
his delivery, lyricism, his cadence ranges, his wittiness with double/triple entendres , his storytelling, vocabulary....etc
Definite next is FITB 1.... Doubt you will be able to catch 100% of the words listening first time... so there is a video version with lyrics
and
200 Bars of Power
Keep it up
Bro you need to check out mic righteous fire all day long
Akala FITB Part 4 is unbelievable, would love to see a reaction to that!!
Love how the depth chimed with you.
Man said "Protect this man" he gets Lowkey
Top reaction bro! Just like to point out that body's in Grenfell were never found as the building is unsafe to enter. So ther are a lot of people that are officially missing, presumed dead 😢
The second part is about Grenfell and is only written because this fire in the booth was just after the Grenfell incident that Lowkey witnessed
Definitely need to check Ghetts out my bro!!! One of the pioneers along with Kano, Wretch 32 etc 🔥🔥
Fire In Booths (part 2) Lyric {Timestamp on original Video}
th-cam.com/video/elFWRsYn1SU/w-d-xo.html&lc=UgzwP1EffSXuLX0NOeZ4AaABAg
.
[Intro]
You know what time it is when you hear this right
["Stillmatic" instrumental]
Yeah, Fire in the Booth, much anticipated Part 2
Hold tight suspense, listen
If they don't let us dream then we won't let them sleep
If they don't let us dream then we won't let them sleep
Listen
.
[Verse - Alphabet Assassin Part 2]
It's the zeitgeist, Zapatista, Zorro at his zenith
Z of zinc in the zebra zig-zagging zealots
Zilch to zombies and Zionists he's zen in his zodiac
Fire in the booth? It's Zoroastrian the zone he's at
Like yapping like Yokozuna in Yemen youtubing yoga
Or Yokozuna in Yeovil yodelling in Yoruba
They yelling your yardstick of yesteryear like Yeboah
They're yearning, I'm yawning this like a yeti vs Yoda
I’m an X-ray you're Xerox, I'm Xavier to the x-men
Ex out xmas like your Xanax to an extent
A wonderful world is waiting while weapons wage war we're weeping
Who's winning? We're wishing well while wicked wizards webs were weaving
They whip us 'til we're wheezing
Our Words of wisdom won't weaken
Witness these whatlass witless wallies waffling with their weekend
Their wording is Wikipedia virtually void of vitals
Verses visceral
Vintage but vivid videos going viral
I'm your uncle that understands
Now it’s us with the upper hand
We were underlings underrated unhuman to Uncle Sam
The theory teaches that there are those thinking tactics to take the throne
Though the truth tends to be told
Through their thesaurus it takes its toll
Slivering snakes stipulate systems to sell your soul
Secretly seek social stratification set in stone
Regiments ravaged the region now its ripe for reparations
Rendered refugees can't retract or repair ramifications
On a quest to quash the quarrels I’m quintessentially qualified
Quitters quake the quality of my quotes can't quite be quantified
People pass prematurely and pay the price for passivity
Pretext to pillage, plunder prepare to prolong proximity
A puppets pathology pulverized by these possibilities
People power is potent and the peak of positivity
Oligarchs ostracise others offer obituaries
Overall I overstand the odyssey optimistically
The norms of a nascent nation should never negate nature
Nasty as nefarious neo-con naysayers for neighbours
This masterful maverick mic man, will make you meet your maker
Meanwhile merciless mercenaries manoeuvre to meet to the majors
Lyrically lacklustre literally lack love
Lust living lavish in luxury listeners lap up
A kaleidoscope of kindness, knowledge, knuckles and kerosene
To kill the kleptocracy and cool the kettle that they kept us in
Jabbing javelins at jingoism
Jealousy justified when jeering at jobless is journalism
Information industry interlinked with infantry
Instrumentalise identity implant ignorance instantly
Hackers in handcuffs, harvesters of hatred hand gliding
Harbingers of harassment harbour harmful handwriting
Gangsters of globalisation glorify glitz and the glam
Give us guidance to the graveyard they got the gift of the gab
It's flawless how they fabricate the folklore of the fiefdom
Funnell funds to freelance fighters and fawn over fights for freedom
Entertainment is education, empathy is eccentric
Economics everything, exploitation an epidemic
Exhausting environment is easy but the dividends are deadly
Don't dare dream of doing different dread our destruction is definitely
Coming as the catalysts clamour for capital
Can't counteract the cycle this catastrophe could cancel all
Bring borders to bear bombarded with the broken
Basically bribery beckons business we are beholden
Though accurate answers to all of the above aren't available
I attack the alphabet again and aced it just to aim at you
They say anything is attainable
Attack the alphabet again and ace (it just to aim at you)
["Beautiful Mind" instrumental]
[Verse 2]
If they don't let us dream, then we won't let 'em sleep
If they don't let us dream, then we won't let 'em sleep
How can I do a fire in the booth, when I'm trying just to maintain
And since June don't hear the word fire in the same way
Heard screams, splutters and them gasping for air
That’s not bars in a booth it’s so hard to compare
If I use fire as metaphor
Does that disrespect the people that are never more?
How does that bomb sound sound to those that bled in war that we never saw?
Remember when they settled scores with metal swords like Skeletor
Chinese made gun powder, Nobel invented dynamite
They say the guilt in his mind compelled him to design the prize
We know what Einstein's mind was like
How many geniuses we never knew that were deprived of life?
I can't philosophise on horrifying flames
We don’t have to apologise or qualify our pain
Degrenfellise our loved ones of the colonisers name
Should we let the corporate media lobotomise our brains
You are beautiful, no matter how this life disfigures you
You’re beautiful even if that image you emulate isn't you
I don’t know if history is linear or cyclical
But know I’m ridiculed for making invisibles visible
That's why Plato said banish poets from the republic
‘Cause they know that we can shake the social system and disrupt it
The land of liberty, they tell us leave it or lump it
When Trump comes to the country we hope he chokes on his crumpet
Before we sink in the ocean, consider this as an omen
Natures blessings aren't ours just ‘cause we think that we own them
Never think that you're broken, or think that you're no-one
Remember a rope is strong because of strings interwoven
Would they love you more if you mock the people that you're from
Self-orientalise and believe that you belong
Overcompensate and propagate the image of the imbecile
Not uninvolved though you're further from the killing field
Take solace in the fact there's always cracks in the monolith
Now we're practically lobbing bricks like Asterix and Obelix
Distracted with gossip it's twisted news an interlude to adverts no hidden truths to listen to it's pitiful
Rosa Luxemburg gave us this simple truth
You won't feel your chains till the day you begin to move
He photographed a corpse and they flung him in the cage
Those that signed off on the cladding are still receiving their wage
Helicopters hovered close, pictures for the front page
Tried to speak all I really felt deep was numb rage
How could they see this pain at such a young age
Leaning out the window, screaming for help but none came
If it bleeds it leads, trauma tourists they gravitate
Shock doctrine in effect, disaster capitalists salivate
Privitisation, deregulation and austerity
To zero hour contracts, exploitation and precarity
Adults didn't make it, children to be fostered
Saved pennies on the block, dropped 20 million on the opera
We see through your cold plans, your programme is done
We don't want a Prime Minister that holds hands with Trump
We don't want DJs doing shows on military compounds
Can't trivialise fire or hear any more bomb sounds
How can I smile when I know the remains are still not found
And echoing in my mind is exactly how the sobs sound
They say we're criminals for the syllables and stanzas
When they subsidise the killers tools, the pillagers and bankers
Who are the engines of history, people like me and you
Who got massacred for the right to vote at Peterloo
It was imagineers, the poets and the artists
The miners, Tolpuddle Martyrs, William Cuffay and the chartists
Rebel and resist even through something small
Create windows with words and mirrors where once were walls
Manure contributes to the beauty of a rose
Why can't we accept our pain as something that helps us grow
They wonder why songs that make you cry are more moving
‘Cause crying's the only thing that we were born doing
They tell us tea is tradition to the English
When I look around this island not a tea plantation in it
Earl Gray gave 20 million to the slave traders
Multi-polar world now the Indians are space raiders
Freedom to be even or merely alienate labour
Freedom for fossil fuellers to desecrate and invade nature
Albert was an immigrant, Prince Phillip is an immigrant
Were the Celts, Normans and the Anglo-Saxons English, then?
The words Sugar, Cotton and Rice come from Arabic
Now we import democracy to civilise the Saracens
Analysing planets when this back water was wilderness
It seems we're still obsessed with immortality like Gilgamesh
Pessimism of intellect, optimism of will
Wear the skin of their victims its syndrome buffalo bill
In times of permanent war there is always someone to kill
But when life and death are virtual almost nothing is real
They got my snapshots in a padlocked box
Settle with the heavy metal this is rap not rock
It's fire in the booth but man's not hot
I just got genius bars like a laptop shop
They wanna know if I've got a flow, or I'm gonna blow
Back like Geronimo Pratt let's rock ‘n roll
I never sold my soul for a pot of gold
Now feel this scholar’s solid knowledge in your collar bone
Subject of propaganda, that terrifies the slumbered
But the albums still sell you can verify the numbers
Collectivise or die, protect your mind or suffer
Life is paradise to some and a pair of dice to others
While these twittering teens, are sinking in screens and thinking in memes
They blink and this machine is pimping their dreams
I think it’s obscene, as sick as it seems
They don’t know what lyrical invincibility means
Barge through for part 2, I can't lose
Labels astroturfing trying to make it look grass roots
Gone are the days we sold our CDs from the car boot
A sharpshooter shooting harpoons through your chart tunes
I saw pain in the eyes of a tired retired fire man
Knowing he couldn't save a child survive the frying pan
When we riot we disquiet the leviathan
Forget iron man I got an iron lion’s diaphragm
My salutation to those with imagination
Most anticipated and that's no exaggeration
The flag doesn't exist let me back up that statement
What happens to the nation, if the Queen has a tax haven?
What's commonsensical is sensible to question
What seems to be a lesson is intellectual repression
Say the ting goes… as expression of aggression
Remember there are two victims on either side of the weapon
We won’t let ‘em sleep
If they don't let us dream, then we won't let them sleep
If they don't let us dream, then we won't let them sleep...
Listen, check it
[Verse 3]
Power to those who read bell hooks
Power to those who sell books
Power to those who know how the inside of a cell looks
All those feeling helpless, forgotten or discarded
Power to the strange fruit they thought was rotting in their garden
Power to those sitting alone seeking solace in the calmness
Power to those feeling stained know your tomorrow isn’t tarnished
Power to those who sweep the streets
With more knowledge than PhDs
Power to those who keep their keys
Return is promised please believe
Power to those that suffer in silence
And those it hurts to hear
Power to those that hold their ground
Power to those that persevere
Power to those that love humanity more than they love style
Power to immigrants that’s probably raising Donald Trump's child
Power to the blind who can't imagine what sight is
Power to those staring at the moon and all those working night shifts
Power to readers, the writers, the illiterate
Power to those that struggle to decolonise their syllabus
Power to the shy ones that always struggled to make friends
And to the half of humanity worth less than 8 men
Power to those that risked their lives to dig the coltan from the ground
For the mic I’m spitting on and the phone you’re holding now
Power to those that built the stadium they're playing in
Power to those that mowed the grass and the stitched the ball that their playing with
Every rapper that doesn’t rap about killing
Power to the builders who build buildings that outlived them
Power to the slaves of ancient Greece that never had the right to vote
Democracy dead like Gary Webbe when they import it like it’s coke
Power to those that write to prison
Power to those writing home
Power to those writing poems, power to those that died alone
Power to Curtis Mayfield, power to Ronald Isley
Power to the fishermen that were forced into piracy
Power for every person that is working in a library
Power to every nurse that we turn to in our times of need
Power to the unions and the miners Thatcher punished
Power to those that drive the buses and those that collect the rubbish
Power to the youth desiring the truth
Power for every rapper that is dying for a fire in the booth
For those that lost limbs to King Leopold's quota
And those risking their lives for the P&O to Dover
Power to union leaders murdered by...
Power to victims of this globalised Cosa Nostra
Power to those dying on the shores and the borders
Power to human beings that were rendered fauna and flora
Power to those that clean up after the stage shows
And carnival goers haunted by Kelso Colchrane's ghost
Power to Kevin Carter his picture taunts us ever after
So many questions never answered....
Remember the last words of Abd al-Mohsin al-Sadoun
الامة تنتظر الخدمة الانجليز لا يوافقون
Power to al-Jawahiri and his rebellions
They killed his brother Jafar and he cursed the rotten Thamesians
Enlightened despots pursuing tactics Machiavellian
Chinese steel preceded Europe a millennium
Think about it, printed press half a millenium, never get close
Power to Ken Loach and every volunteer in Lesbos
Cuban doctors sent to Sri Lanka for the tsunami
Power to those that cleaned up after the Bullingdon parties
Kids knowing Apple products before they know what an apple is
Forgotten like passengers on the USS Indianapolis
Dying days before they could see what Little Boy's damage did
On precipice of fascism our passiveness is cancerous
Power to those strong enough to dream
Power to those that choose not to be a cog in the machine
Power to those that love first and hate never
Power to those that sleep on streets through grey weather
Power to Aziz Ali and Bone Thugs and Harmony
Power to Norman Baker, David Kelly's ulnar artery
Power to the genocided population of Tasmania
The internet descends to Trumptastic fantasia
Let them try quote this, you'll never find a better diagnosis than collective psychosis
It’s getting quite hopeless but hope is all we have
Trying cultivate the positive not focus on the bad
But the globe’s under attack
The obnoxious rage of a fake intellectual
Amazing Grace in the age of the spectacle
Not the first time they found a racist electable
To raise to the pedestal and desecrate the place that translated the decimal
I don't want to tempt fate
Power to corpse washers like Salvador Allende
Power to language learners from Bernie Sanders fans to flag burners
One man's inertia is another man's purpose
In utopia of song we are victorious
But the bitter sweet reality's not this glorious
Power to Coltrane watching Malcolm X
Power to Paul Robeson under house arrest
Power to Galileo under house arrest
Power to Ibn Haytham under house arrest
Forgive me if I sound obsessed
Forgive me if I sound depressed
Believe me that's not how it's meant
They probably thought I couldn't come back and kill the alphabet
¡El pueblo unido, jamás será vencido!
¡El pueblo unido, jamás será vencido!
Sayin' ¡pueblo unido, jamás será vencido!
الشعب يريد إسقاط النظام
Sayin’ pueblo unido jamas sera vencido
El pueblo unido jamas sera vencido
Sayin’ pueblo unido jamas sera vencido
الشعب يريد إسقاط النظام

Lowkey - hand on my gun,
America has 52 stars but one star left to make more stars
IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE - CIVIL WAR. You wont regret it. Beast 1333 - Global Soap Opera. Another banger
Who ever finds him he can find him self
masterclass
You were losing me at "don't burn my flag", and confirmed it at "piece of shit". I'm not sure how you can love Lowkey and Akala's work so much and love a flag as much as you seem to at the same time. That's some wild cognitive dissonance.
One love✌🙌💪🤙
Much love to anyone & everyone who may read this.
Is that the central park 5? Netflix have a doc called when they see us.
As a human who comes from a place where racism is near to non existent, I was shocked at the persecutions young black males face. Its an eye opener and brought attention to how bad that country is for Black people.
yea Central Park 5, I Never Saw that Doc But will have to check it out
@@MrLboydReacts It's a real eye opener. It's a mini drama/doc series played by actors. It's really well made and could pass as a big budget movie. The original 5 are also in it at the end talking. It also goes through their court case they won in 2014. If it wasn't so heartbreaking I would call it a masterpiece but its so Raw how they were treated.
I see you've been doing these fire in the booth's lately, so I was wondering if you could react to Griselda's FITB? They are a hip hop group out of Buffalo NY and they bring that 90s New York boom bap HIP HOP feel to their music while keeping shit fresh and modern, plus they actually lived the life that they rap about. I think you'd have no complaints, sir.
