Let's re-direct into some positive hip-hop after all that gangsta rap, G-Funk and beefin' in the streets. (After these 2 test grades i received tonight in my government class, i need all the positivity i can get).
KRS-One stands for Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everything. I wonder what it doesn't reign supreme over? It was a tough call as to which KRS (or Boogie Down Productions)video to post, but ultimately i decided on "My Philosophy" instead of "Stop the Violence" (1984). It's interesting how in 1992 (after receiving criticism for being too preachy) the usually conscious minded BDP released an album titled Sex & Violence. Who does he think he is- The Exploited?
It is too sick that he alludes to the NWA song "Gangsta Gangsta" (1988) when he drops "It's not about a salary, it's all about reality". Yuh.
