In a thought-provoking video, Jasiri X and Paradise compare real gangsters – the corporate criminals that rule the world with violence – with the people that label themselves (or are labeled by the media) as gangstas.
Jasiri doesn’t hold back, with lines such as these:
“Real gangstas make billions making slaves of civilians, making slaves of your children, making slaves through they killings.”
“800 billions in bailouts is what the banks get; Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch – throw up your gang sets.”
“If your land got resources, you’re getting attacked for it, cos real gangstas run the world on the backs of the poor.”
The video ends fittingly with a clip of George Carlin’s classic sketch: “It’s called the American dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.”
Jasiri X is a talented, militant rapper with a message that needs to be heard. That’s why no major label would be stupid enough to give him a deal!
