| Nas – One Mic Lyrics | 23 years ago |
|
I'm not saying any of this just because I think this is, well, one of the best songs I've heard in a long damn time, but it sounds like someone needs to reread the lyrics and with an open mind this time. Maybe I should assume LoganNYC and Nas come from different backgrounds and different situations. LoganNYC's thoughts and feelings and opinions are the type that scare me because there is an obvious lack of compassion..of understanding or even a need or want to understand. It's just immediately dismissed as "propaganda". I'm just running on assumption here, but how can you label it as propaganda when you haven't experienced it? Don't know about it? You are only expressing what you have experienced. I guess that's pretty natural, but I think it's pretty close-minded of you to think that your reality is the only reality. "You know the block was ill as a youngster. Every night it was like a cop would get killed, body found in the dumpster" ? If that's the line you're talking about..how does that glorify copkilling? And all of this about how things should be today..that's all just great..I agree..but if it ISN'T what things are like today..how can you expect someone living today..someone who is obviously angry and who feels suppressed in more ways than one to write about anything other than that suppression and that anger? damn..thought I was done..I'm not..if you've lost respect for Nas because of this song..I doubt you ever really respected him. And in my humble (but definitely right..ha) opinion..you didn't respect him for the right reasons. This is honesty..in his opinion (key word) and such a pure fucking expression of a deep emotion. How could you not respect that? ok. done. |
