Beats, grooves, voice, flow and lyrical content on point, feels like a full album for 10 tracks.
An album of the times indeed.
9 - 'Walk Like A Panther'...This one really blasts :scarface:
In this era of reckoning for American policing, increases of instances racism fostered by the most incompetent president in modern times, and a global pandemic that has affected all areas of life as we once knew it, voices of dissent in entertainment have become more relevant than ever.
Enter Paris, arguably one of the most politically outspoken artists in hip-hop history, with his latest album, Safe Space Invader. Entirely self-produced Safe Space Invader is a brutal commentary on Black life in 2020 America, touching on the topics of police brutality, racism, gentrification, economic inequality and cancel culture, among others.
From SSI's opening track, "Bang Bang," the mood is set. With an appropriate sonic backdrop of civil unrest, Paris rages with his characteristic menacing snarl:
"Won't stop till we all eat
Beast mode, Bay niggas all beast
Spit clearly so we can all see
It's no fun if we all can't get a piece"
Its follow-up, "Why Reconcile?" asks that very question - in stark, uncompromising terms over an ominous soundscape:
"Ain't no middle ground, ain't no understandin'
Just demand fairness 'til we advancin'
Apply pressure, ride on the enemy
And why reconcile if we ain't free? Fuck peace"
And it goes on from there. "Press On" displays Paris' unbridled fury at police misconduct and the apologists who support and embolden it, and "Turned the Key" is a poignant lament of the effects of gentrification on communities of color in the USA.
However, it is Paris' first single and video, "Baby Man Hands," that truly engages and emboldens listeners disgusted with the current state of affairs brought about by the ineptitude of our Commander in Chief. It is a vicious takedown of Donald Trump and his related buffoonery, and serves as musical catharsis and affirmation for those at their wits end with his shenanigans:
''Call Trump University
Cause his fake shit brings out the worst in me
Fake news, fake views, fake telecast
Fed to the fake by the fake fulla fake facts
Fuck y’all with Kellyanne’s dick
And start pickin’ truth over fake shit
Start realizing you made this
Dimwit racist rapist president"
Continuing in the tradition of artists who can be relied upon to remain consistent with both content and dedication to musical quality, this effort by Paris pleases not only his existing loyal supporters, but continues to gain him many new listeners as well.
30 years after his classic debut The Devil Made Me Do It, it is a sad truth that politically astute activist rappers like Paris are still needed to address wrongs in the world we live in. As uncompromising as ever, Paris pulls no punches on Safe Space Invader. His lyrics are as vital and fiery as they were on The Devil Made Me Do It in 1990, arguably even more so. And it is timely too - in this year of unreal political discord and social unrest, Safe Space Invaders is an incendiary but important statement. The beats could have been better here and there, but this one is all about Paris' hard rhymes. Whether you agree with his ideas or not, there's no denying voices like Paris's are NECESSARY

Yup. Anybody know the vocal sample/interpolation on the chorus where he goes “Where did we go? where are we at?...” There’s some other song that uses similar lyrics sung in the same way and it’s driving me crazy that I can’t remember it.

big disappointment... Paris is just spewing the same mainstream media narrative, Black Lives Matter, Fuck Trump. Branded, marketed, and commercialized pawn in the globalist takeover of America.
..but on the real issues of the day he's a sheep who probably wears a mask and supports lockdowns (house arrest)

Nah you ain't gotta blast it like that bro -- CNN, MSNBC, CBS, all the networks are promoting what Paris is rapping about in 2020. He's a tool for the machine now. Times have changed, and they found a way to market dissent. Paris became a pawn and a LAMB became a Sheep.

lol why are u so dumb .. you just named a buncha white supremacist networks ran by old white cacs who call black people monkeys behind closed doors. so they throw black folks a bone here n there to keep em at bay, that don’t mean shit in the end game.
just like obama, just like biden (who wrote the 94 crime bill and was FOR segregation in his day)
they all have one thing in common.. all a buncha racist crackers, just like u. THATS what paris is talking about ..... a song like “TURNED THE KEY” is probably too sophisticated for a hillbilly like you to understand. shit went right over your head LOL.

Somehow I doubt they will censor Paris, in fact they will probably put him on the cover of Newsweek...
...meanwhile, the real story is Doctors like Dr. Simone Gold and the FRONTLINE DOCTORS group that are being censored from every media platform for speaking the truth about the virus scam and calling to end lockdowns, mandatory facemasks, and restore liberty.
...Paris doesn't even realize all his freedoms are being taken away

once again, why would they censor him when their whole M.O is making them think they have freedom? black people are being played, and Paris knows that. again, is “TURNED THE KEY” too complex for you to wrap your mind around? i see u dodged this and ran straight to the lockdown scapegoat again.

Lol@Newsom just ordered more lockdowns on Commie-fornia. You are being put on house arrest in a prison planet and all you fools wanna talk about is the same BLM-Black Lives Matter, Donald Trump is racist—propaganda campaign played everyday on CNN.

No I didn't even listen to it... cause I feel like if our government is putting us on lockdown and muzzles and you ain't got a damn thing to say about that... but yet you claim to be some voice of the disenfranchised... I'm sorry but I got no time to listen to you... this is 2020 and in case he hasn't noticed this is the Great Reset and all our liberties are being taken right before our eyes.

do you know what happens to a paranoid schizophrenic when something fishy takes place?
it eats them alive and engulfs their soul
so now they’re in threads about a rapper named paris babbling about lockdowns
the biggest effect of this covid shit is the mental anguish it places on weak minded people like u

No it’s compliant sheep that make the communist tyranny of figures like Hitler possible. All they had to do was front some bogus state of emergency and you rush to give up all your liberties so the government can protect and take care of you. The weak ones always look to government orders.
The strong are self-reliant and are weary when government promises to keep them safe if they just obey and do what they are told. As your God Dr. Fraud-chi said “now is the time to do what you are told”
-
please dont talk bout communist, or communism over there in the US.
U guys neva lived in it cant imagine whats like.
(like Scitt said earlier bout culture vulture in the US)

Paris has been consistently rapping about the issues facing black people for 30 years. It doesn’t align with your world views so now he’s a “tool for the machine”? FOH

Actually I've lived and worked in two socialist countries. And when Biden takes over as President America will become a Socialist country as well.

You think Biden, who has been a moderate Dem for nearly 50 years, is just gonna flip a switch and become a socialist? What socialist policies do you see Biden implementing?
