This song is the personification of black excellence and creativity when we have little to work with from an economic standpoint. The song provides a history lesson and inspiration for future black entrepreneurs to realize that they can own the intellectual property they create on social media platforms like twitter and Facebook. Since historically blacks have not owned any real big money white corporations, we can benefit from coming together and sharing our own resources to make more money.
My opinion on this song is that it is a good and inspirational vibe reminiscent of the socially conscious lyrics of Marvin Gaye or Grandmaster Flash back in the day. Even though we are oppressed as black creative people, we do not have to be in competition with each other economically. There is enough of the money pie for all and ultra rich whites that own these firms have proven to us that the model works in America.
The lyrics make reference to the black Twitter world and the way that we brag about “owning” that but Jack Dorsey is the one getting paid from all of that. This lyric is kind of a flashback to Kanye West lyric on All Falls Down song that says “ buying Gucci but the white man get paid of all that”. The lyrics stress the importance of ownership and personal accountability to ourselves to be all that we can be in a racist world.
