Although, Hip Hop was still in its commercial infancy, Professor Griff, Sister Souljah, Ice T, Tupac Shakur and others felt the wrath of an America scorned at the hand of the Conservatives and those who courted the Conservative vote.

So, now in 2007 we see a renewed attack on Hip Hop from a post Michael Richards/Don Imus America aching for a scapegoat upon which to blame all of this nation’s problems.

But a few of the homies have gotten together and recorded a "diss" record aimed at those Right Wing talking heads who have been guilty of "dissing" Hip Hop. (And frankly, a few were thrown in just cuz we don’t like ‘em.) The track, "Drums of War" featuring Big Swagg, Mr. Cox and yours truly can be downloaded at  http://www.hiphopstrikesback.com

Let this be the song that sparks the revolution! The Left’s new anthem that makes the Right shake in their boots! The song that will bring about a wave of social equality that....

OK, I’ll settle for making Bill O’Reilly have nightmares about a bunch of "gangsta rappers" bum rushin’ the No Spin Zone, tying him up and forcing him to watch 48 uninterrupted hours of Black Entertainment Television...

One man said..........

previously (on OpedNews), the Civil War was not about slavery. But went on to say, was about keeping certain states from withdrawing from the Union. I tend to think there is certain truth in that statement, because there was as many or more slave plantations in the North as the South.

Word of Caution John, you can tell a lot about a man by looking at his face.

Nuff said........................................................
