Thank you, I'm not into writing prose and poetry much, but nature makes things pretty it seems. Of course you will have a house someday if you want to. xxx
If you want, I can burn you a copy of the unofficial release of RBG but I'm notorious for not sending out CDs so it's your chance to take :) There's also a great review of RBG and all of DPz's albums here.
I think "W-4," "50 in the Clip," and "Way of Life" are my three favorites on the official release. Actually, I think the entire album is good, though, with the exception of the "Hell Yeah" remixes, haha.
I'd take it for sure! But since I want it real bad I will have to send you the thing I was supposed to send you a long time ago first ( I didn't yet! Urghhh. I've been really busy and since stopping at the postal service is more than 10 minutes and I didn't have a U-Lock for my bike, it was hard to do.) Anyway, it will be just a little kick in the ass for me that way. That's very kind of you :) I should have the time to write a letter and send it to you Thursday or Friday.
And... I have to admit I kinda like the remixes! I think that the entire album is a lot more focused on the state and government / poverty than the others ie; Let's Get Free had a lot of diversity; animal rights, school, human / black people's rights, ect. The songs had a clear message, the new one is bit more subtle than the previous ones. Or its just me perhaps.
I think, as pointed out in the review I linked, the major difference between "RBG" and "Let's Get Free," politically speaking, is the fact that "RBG" takes a more focoist / militaristic perspective. Granted, "Let's Get Free" is not without its militancy, but it also praised leaders more along the lines of Mao and Huey, both of whom didn't necessarily advocate a solely-militaristic strategy. Both, in fact, put a huge emphasis on community and education. On "RBG," they're giving props to organizations which are actually at odds with Maoism and supported mainly by anarchists. (Which, in and of itself, isn't necessarily a bad thing but the groups themselves aren't necessarily the best examples in the movement, either. Especially when it comes to Khalid Muhammad who M-1 thanks in the liner notes
