Yes this is PSA rap and it is definitely old-man rap but I guess I am an old man cause I’m feeling it. J Rawls brings together two pioneers of conscious hiphop–Sadat X and a surprisingly youthful Wise Intelligent for the first time on this slow thought-provoker. Two of my all-time favs. Maybe Brand Nubian and Poor Righteous Teachers can just mush into some kind of super-group and call themselves the 5% All-Stars. That would be fresh.

    Good track but most from this era get too focused on what’s wrong with hip hop and lose the creativity they are best known for. Do your hip hop psa’s but still make songs that are creative or just make it a battle rap. We all hate what’s on the radio and miss the good old days but someone has to spark the next golden era…

    This joint is Hip Hop at its best… We have to make this song go viral! J Rawls production is straight to the point dope…Wise and Sadat both represented well on this song… I hope they continue to work together… This has been a pretty good year for quality Hip Hop songs and albums…
