outcome—drugs and crime. In the song Notorious Thugs, the uneducated masses are revealed to play a destructive role, allowing themselves to be taken advantage of. During the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s, African Americans endeavored to improve their social situation, to galvanize prejudice’s final Gotterdammerung. Bone and Biggy adduce that as the 1990s dawned, black people found themselves atop a maelstrom of momentum and potential—only to be powerless due to infirmity and internecine struggle. Hitherto listening to Notorious Thugs, I was unaware of that the African American movement had achieved so much, only to be stopped before reaching the light at the end of the tunnel. It was Notorious Thugs which opened my eyes to this halt of progression, to the sequacious masses who live oblivious to their own kind’s misdeeds and voice scant opposition to rampant injustice. |
