Hiphop Saves Lives

Jag tänkte skriva något krönikaliknande om vad hiphop är, men det är besvärligare än jag trodde. Medan jag funderar vidare på detta lyssnar jag gärna på Lupe Fiascos nya singel Hip Hop Saved My Life, en enkel men ack så stolt och vacker hyllning.

He picked up his son with a great big smile
Rapped every single word to the new born child
Then he put him down and got back to the kitchen
Put on another beat and got back to the mission -
To get his momma out the hood, put her somewhere in the woods
Keep his lady lookin' good, have her rollin' like she should
Show his homies there's a way, other than that flippin' yay'
