Maino On Police Brutality…
Police Raid Lil Wayne’s Miami Beach Mansion, Seize Property
New Music: Maino & Unlce Murda – “Real N*ggas Back (Remix)”
New Music: Kap G – “La Policia (Remix)” feat. T.I. & David Banner
New Music: Trinidad Jame$ – “Mr. Officer”
Maybe a day late and a dollar short. This kid-friendly police brutality song is one sign of Trinidad's steady mehhhh-ing over two years. Paving his road with good intentions, TJ stumbles into this hot social debate with some pre-cooked, slowed-down, sentimental nothingness. Nonetheless, good intentions. Listen after the jump.
Video: G Unit – “Ahh Sh*t”
Following in a line of artists like Gif, J. Cole and Dizzy Wright to make specific songs targeting the police state, G Unit releases "Ahh Sh*t" as their response to social issues. Watch the video after the jump.
New Music: Troy Ave & Maino – “Something Epic”
The Brooklyn artists rap over vintage beats from when New York rap mattered to other people and not just them. It's freshened up by Troy Ave, weighed down by Maino. These two are on a very small crusade to make rap regional long after it became democratic and internet-based. It's a strange effort and egocentric but definitely slams the reminder home in 3 plus minutes of East Coast nostalgia. Check the track after the jump.
In a world that causes people to feel the need to carry a gun, violence and brutality is expected even it is unwarranted. You can't carry a gun and be upset when you or a friend is shot. These are things brought upon by ourselves through misguided actions. You may only carry a gun for defense but, the reality is you have malicious intent. In a culture where police are labeled the enemy what more can you expect…these things will happen untill our society as a whole wakes up. Police are not the enemy. Arrogance is the enemy. In the video he states something about a pricey truck and they(being the cops) could never afford this in their lives. This type of statement CREATES the issues he complains against. If you measure your worth as a man by materialistic possessions and discuss the amount of success you have by weighing it against others than you are equally as guilty as the police who enforce brutality instead of justice. True justice is found with love. Peace be upon all people in Jesus name.
