    Nas’ song “Ether” is considered the greatest beef track of all time. He took down Jay Z with it (Nas Jay Z beef was huge and Jay Z was rolling with the dark side the whole time). Literally now there is a verb in English because of it: Ethered - meaning to ruthlessly humiliate an opponent. Then Nas wrote jams about empowering the children, like “I Can” and “If I Ruled the World.” Nas’ wife cheated on him with Jay Z and then Jay Z released songs about leaving condoms on Nas’ kids’ car seat. Nas stayed real, man. It feels good to see it.

    Interesting, she’s is quite pretentious , but very cool interview. Maybe she seems pretentious due to the extreme difference in the two socioeconomic sub populations they are from. It could also be that Harvard is pretentious and Cambridge, MA is a cess pool of left wing weirdness. She’s kinda “telling ,” him what he was trying to say. It’s like he’s just “ too black” and “too street “ for anyone, especially a white person to know what he’s saying. But the she takes it a step further and, pretty much, “helps him to understand,” what he really means because… he’s “too black” and “too street,” for him to even know what he’s saying means. So she’s gonna be the typical “black whisperer,” Liberal and she well help break down his thoughts in a simple and easy to understand format. Thus way whites, blacks and even himself will get to what’s really spilling out of his “grapefruit,” which fortunately, she helped us to understand he means his mind. 😲 Weird.

    This is beautiful. More people to.need to hear this. Im embarrassed..but I had no idea you were an actual performer, until I went hunting for a way to get a message to you. You have a great sense of humor, and seriously...a talented singer and song writer. I am a female btw...I didnt want you thinking some guy was stalking you!!! 😆

    Shalom Alicia. I hope you see this. I am a Christian. I started to honor the Sabbath a few weeks ago and I ran across your "Shalom Alechiem" song on Bim bam. I LOVE IT!! I play it even when its not Shabbat because it is so beautiful. I want to tell you, even if you dont know me, I.pray for you and Israel. I support Israel as much as I van by prayer and by finances. I live alone (very alone) so I am so grateful for your music. I dont know iif you have a relationship with Yeshua....but I want to leave this verse ISAIAH 53 And Proverbs 30:4. Please....read them both. The answer to both is Yeshua. G-d bless you and your family.❤

    I want to thank you for this eye-opening depiction of "the plight of the African American". It was truly inspiring and I hope that everyone who sees it is as inspired as I was to right this wrong. It is so sad that anyone has to live with this stigma held over them for no fault of their own. I can almost assuredly say that most people without color (as if that was possible, lol) would not have been able to go through the years of oppression that the average AA goes through on a daily basis. So AA's deserve the utmost respect for not going on a rampage like they did in VA (shout out to Nat Turner) & killing as many as they could (DC sniper, but I don't know if it was racial with him.) But you get what I'm saying, a strong people as well as merciful. Those pinks should be glad, cause they could be getting treated the same way.

    I'm amazed this is my first time seeing this interview😮 I used to break down other people's raps in a similar way as a youngster and it enabled me to formulate my own raps. When you see what a rap song looks like on physical notebook paper you get a certain perspective that allows you to build further.
