Such a masterpiece ! Loved it when it came out and it ages very well ! The last beat à la Lemon Incest by Gainsbourg is rad ! M. Blanco is sooooo underrated...
As an artist, Mykki feels the sharp corners of the mayhem we live in. Dope doesn't help to forget. Forgetting doesn't stop evil, e.g. KKK. Being yourself doesn't cure from being lonely. There is a lot of subtle violence that we are numb too. I am not surprised Mykki evoked the Robinsonian story. It had the same premises.
The voice speaking in greek in the beginning talks about an incident that took place in August 1996. After the funeral of Tassos Isaac - a greek cypriot refugee who was beaten to death by Turkish Nationalists - his cousin Solomos Solomou, a 26 year old greek cypriot was shot in the head by a Turkish officer while trying to remove the Turkish flag in the United Nations Buffer Zone in Cyprus, the place where his cousin had died a few days before. He and his cousin were refugees from Ammohostos, a greek cypriot town which was bombarded and occupied by Turks in 1974 during the second phase of their invasion of Cyprus. I can't make out whose voice this is, but he uses this incident (as many far-right supporters do) to serve the concept of the "Great Idea", a concept of Greek Nationalism about a future Greek state that extends from Cyprus to Northern Epirus (they mean Southern Albania). This idea is still preserved today by far-right party Golden Dawn.
+ghettobarbie its the voice of nikos mihaloliakos, the golden dawn leader. Btw golden dawn is not a far-right party, it is a neo-nazi criminal gang who murdered antifascist rapper Pavlos Fyssas.
+ghettobarbie I just googled the incident, and it says the guy went into a Turkish army base and tried to remove the flag from its pole. I think every country would haveve acted the same, I'm not defending militarism, but its the truth..
I (also) didn't like the octopus kill, but otherwise the video and music is great. I'm learning about it over a month late, and I think Mykki would get more views if he posted it on his channel.
Mad love and respect to Mykki Blanco!!!! This song is amazing. Betty rubble is amazing. Everything she touch turns to mother fuck'n gold. The queen bee about to go the distance. !!!!

This whole production is off the hook top to bottom!!
That opening slayed me
Genius. Period. Blessed to have Mykki in this world then, now, forever.
this is a masterpiece
I haven't seen anything and/or heard anything that strange yet so mesmerizing lately. Also, the outro is pure gold.
I love Mykki Blanco
With talent like this Mykki must be right... "They don't wanna see a man in a dress succeed"
They don't want to see a woman in a dress succeed either..

I think neonazism is the only way of being far-right, anyway, George.
+ghettobarbie lol. think again.

+iskander x perhaps she does not perceive other right wing ways of thinking as 'far' right. In which case she is thinking correctly.
Respect !!! Awesome video, Awesome message, Awesome music.

Loved the octopus stabbing
What is this song about? Is it talking about drugs usage? I like it but I don't know if I should..
I think song is saying that all other rappers are fake and trash and pussies

Too much privilege Mykki, too much.

Goodbye La Blanca, farewell Mykki.
+Alejandro Vidal Castillo It was probably already dead. You can buy that shit in the stores xD
