I didn’t look into this artist for the longest time because the main association I made with him was to Bone Crusher’s music video “Never Scared,” which was ridiculous. Turns out he’s a smart dude, and has political music! Didn’t see that one coming. This hip hop song is about the troubles that plague inner city communities (particularly Atlanta and New York City), driving many who grow up there to feel the need to escape. It points out the irony of the communities that seem like they would be most welcoming to Black Americans in that they’re highly populated by them being among the worst places for Black Americans to live. Love the Langston Hughes reference thrown in there.
