I was cruising along and the next track Pressure was really good even though I am a self acclaimed Jay Z hater, ok not really just not a "fan" persay(sp?) But when I heard AMERICAN TERRORIST!!!!! My jaw dropped down and I swear if my car had flies in them they would have flown in!!! Everytime somebody brings up racial issues they tend to focus on Black/White relations..This is the first artist/album to mention anything about the Asian railroad building that happened when America was just forming or about the conveniance of the Indians dissipating due to their new found love of alcohol, given to them by the same people that ended up taking over their land....Holy shit I am in love with this album...I got it last night started listening this morning and I am not only impressed I am upset I have to come to work b/c all I want to do is go back in the car and keep listening to it..
A friend of mine told me about Lupe in March and I hadnt heard anythign nad he jsut kept saying watch out for him, but damn I wasnt expecting this...
