One of my favorite albums of Gil Scott Heron and it stands today what's going on timeless as I am revolution is near the revolution is here and it won't be live. So here's to you brother heroine see you on the other Side Nathaniel Trone Timeless3 Hotep! Means peace! Travel Safe. MayAssur Asset andHeru with Amon Ra watches over you. Ase and Amen
And his last album let the blues pass by was “I’m New Here”. Epitaph for our “half-assed freedom”: Song of a human being arriving in an Atlantic crossing from Africa and disembarking in this country from a tall masted slaver, anew, again and again. This man is immortal.
These words are more appropriate now than ever - the man was a genius
The blues grew up in Satchmo’s horn, on Duke’s piano and Langston’s poetry, on Robeson’s baritone, on Gil Scott’s rap.
Shout out to Warren G from 213 and Drake for bringing me here 🙌🏿 🙏🏿
The Blues made everything 💯
America has still got the blues...
Salute, Pioneer... way ahead of the times.
Yes, the 'Blues' is as American as apple pie, but it's interesting that we in the UK took it to our hearts and loved it!
RIP Gil -- Where is your voice now, when we need it more than ever?
Up to us now.
He handed us the relay baton and now it’s up to us to carry it a little further and hand it over to some else.
Still with us! God, or whatever, Bless!
very very appropriate for today. appropriate in dead-on truthfulness, but also inspiring and comforting, like the blues.
Amen, may we let it be heard and respected. The fight for your rights never stops.
"the blues remembers what the country forgot" i see you two Moor Mother and billy woods i see you two
Golden classic!!!
RIP Gil.
appropriate for today, for everyday. today is certainly a blue day.
Warren g brought me here! Thanks 90s hip hop for having some type of conscious.
Ditto. I wanted to hear the quote and the context.
@MrArchangel73521 yeah, but I wouldn't have known about this without him! That's the connection.
And still relevant on July 2nd, 2020 as I type this
