Probably a repost but hey.

white boy in the wrong place at the right time
soon as the car door opens up he's mine

But my favourite verse is the welfare "grift" - gangster rap vibes concluding in bringing home a big bag of groceries for the homies. C'mon now. So wholesome.

If you haven't dug into Dead Prez and like rap then you've been asleep at the wheel and it's time to wake up and turn off the radio, turn off that bullshit, turn off the radio-

I was a late bloomer for The Coup. And Which Side Are You On? REMIX - Rebel Diaz ft. Dead Prez and Rakaa Iriscience and Get Up reminded me that I liked Dead Prez from a couple of soundtracks back in the day. Now for like the past 3 years I've been listening to a Dead Prez and a Coup song at least once a day. data-laughing

Whenever I hear this song I think of my one of my highschool English teachers. She had us write analysis of any song of our choice but it couldn't be rap unless it was Eminem. I really want to go back in time and shove this song in her racist face. Classic example of irony: let's do a hard-core gangsta rap song! What crimes shall we detail doing? I know:

robbing the pizza delivery man
credit card fraud
and worst of all, applying for welfare.

Sprinkle basic Marxist theory throughout. Chef's kiss. Have the 2Fast 2Furious rock remix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcCv2b2jv-I

Now, whut in the ever livin cracker hell is this? That is SO weird. I hope you did one of his super early horrorcore tracks just to make her squirm.

I did two biographies on Biggie in highschool lmao. Such a cringe little white kid I was. Christopher Wallace was a cool dude tho.

It was a pair project and I got stuck with a kid who had Reagan hanging in his living room like he was Chairman Mao. We did not do Eminem.

Obviously the teacher had zero experience with rap. Someone must have shown her one more poetic Eminem song so he got white listed. Its why it kills me that I didn't know better. I could've completely shattered her mind and I absolutely was the little shit who wanted to be smarter than the teacher.
