-Caveat Lector- I like some rap, especially some of the more political rap, such as Public Enemy, Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy, NWA, etc. And Paris, who has been on a musical hiatus for some time. He's back now, with this song "What Would You Do?" (download below). This is surprisingly insightful stuff on conspiracy theory. The style isn't totally my thang, as far as rap and hiphop goes, but it's not bad. If you don't like rap at all, you probably won't like this song, but the lyrics are transcribed below. This mp3 version is censored (the "bad words" are blanked out), which is too bad, but it's probably so it will get radio play. Am looking for an uncensored mp3 in the meantime.
Here's an interview with Paris about this: http://www.daveyd.com/parisrespondsback.html http://www.daveyd.com/parisrespondsback2.html http://www.daveyd.com/parisrespondsback3.html http://www.daveyd.com/parisrespondsback4.html (don't follow the links at the bottom of each page to navigate the interview, as they're broken.) He's a bit one-sided on the Dems vs. Repubs thing, but I think he's trying to wake up some people in the hip hop community. - jt ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lysander Zimmerman" <LAMZ@...> from: http://indymedia.org:8081/front.php3?article_id=186982&group=webcast What Would You Do? http://www.daveyd.com/paristrack.mp3 George W. Bush: Good evening, I would like to report on the state of our war against the American people. We're mounting a sustained campaign, a crackdown on every American and every person of every faith in every nation, and to bring them to justice. All missions are being executed according to plan; without warning or provocation Americans are being swept up in an international dragnet. Thousands of FBI agents are on the trail of other citizens here and abroad. It has everything to do with hate and evil and murder and prejudice. America is strong. . ."

And then what if you saw All of the things that's wrong Would you stand tall and strong Or would you turn and walk away?

That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.
