Death to America
I knew it was shit when a bunch of neoliberal media ghouls were fawning over it and talking about how they liked the rapping. 40 years of Rap and they finally found some they liked. It had to be awful.
It feels like having a history book of questionable accuracy rapped at you by the whitest person on earth.
The history is revisionist and I’m convinced it’s effective contemporary propaganda placating the founding fathers and American Revolutionary War. Providing a modern interpretation which folks can connect to with a veneer of progress.
The music is wonderful, as much as I dislike the content, the musical prowess, I think, needs to be commended.
I always hated that overhyped liberal shit and I got so much shit for saying so when it was new, but I kept saying it anyway.
I always assumed the rap in the musical sounds like the conservative raps Troy did on community when joining the football team. I.e. extremely dated and lame.
