Nature of the Threat - An anthropology class in one song
[sepehr]:
It's a lot of BS, but it's still a sick song to me..I really hope he doesn't fully believe that tho
nibs:
it's mostly real shit he's kicking. some of it is slightly questionable (the origins of man and race), but if a person summed up judiasm or christianity in a song, 80% of that shit would be fiction too, seeing as it's a fictional religion. ras' song is more meaningful and accurate than what you'd hear in the historical accounts that most religions espouse. people that don't like the truism's ras speaks try to pick out a line here or there and then try to dismiss the whole work based on a couple questionable lines.
i agree that his flow is horrible on this track, the beat is horrible as well. ras stepped it up 200% on "interview with a vampire" and "music of the business" in terms of dropping knowledge in a song.

with the phenotypical trait, genetic recessive
Blue eyes, blonde hair and white skin
Albinism apparently was a sin to the original man, Africans
So the mutants traveled North of the equator
Called Europeans later, the first race haters

wow what a dumbass
Eihtball:
Songs like this (probably this one in particulary) are the main reason that "Soul On Ice" got pulled off a lot of record store shelves when it first came out...which of course meant that he started ripping on white folk even MORE on his next album about censorship. Ras has always struck me as being obsessively Afrocentric, often to a lunatic extent that's pretty much racist. He still has a sick flow, though, but not as good as Chino XL (remember that "Riot" song? Chino obviously outshined him on that).
Sikotic™:
I've been getting into Chino alot more lately. Dude's got really crazy shit, its a shame he isn't recognized for it.
