'dead prez was right about everything' - afropunk

[OfTheCross]

GOAT 2000’s album no question

I play this regularly and make sure to play it on long rides with my niece and nephew and any young ppl, tbh

Now, pwople denying their message looking extra stupid and hella c00nish

The cat is out of the bag, and society will never go back to the way it was.

They are.....

My friend had this tape. We had a legendary weekend in NY with this playing in the background the whole time...


I saw them live at TLA in philly right after this dropped. The feds was watching everyone as they entered the door. That just made me more hype

They were hyping up The Information Age only to totally go missing once social media took off the way it did. The irony is that Joe Budden was the one to lead the charge in terms of being a rapper who used social media as a platform. Joe Budden became what Dead Prez was hyping up for the future.

I will go on record to say that Stic Mans 2011 album "The Workout" in my opinion is the greatest concept record in hip hop history because its 1) An album that can be appreciated by all races, ages and genders 2) Its an album that truly gives back to the community on a level like no other hip hop album by having its concept revolve around motivation to live a healthy lifestyle and exercise. I have yet to see an album that has a universal appeal to actually help and improve peoples lifestyle on such a level. I mean ,the man has a song ( "Sober Soldier" ) acknowledging that smoking weed is slavery...what other rappers are talking like that?

That album moved me out of potential status.

Watching these brothers have a festival tent full of White kids scream 'Fukk The Queen!' in the UK, in the early 2000's is still one of my mostlive show memories.

Album was incredible too. As much classic music as they had on Loud 'Let's Get Free' fit right in there with it.

This year is the 20th anniversary of 'Let's Get Free' too

Can’t believe I never listened to this album until today. Amazing, ‘woke’ album without feeling forced and above all it’s enjoyable to listen to cause of the production. Conscious rap hits differently right now
