[Harry Allen]

We're coming to you live from the Scottish Right Temple

Near the intersection of Crenshaw and Wiltshire

Where, as you can see in the background

Military personnel are mobilized and waiting orders



Despite the quiet and the deceptive calm, tension is still

thick in the air after last night's concert and rebellion



The incident was allegedly sparked by police officers trying

to shut down a reportedly peaceful concert by hip hop artists

Dilated People's



We'll keep you updated with any new developments. For Triclops

Media Watch, this is Harry Allen, hip hop activist and media assassin



And now, Proper Propaganda..



[Begin Song]



Watch it. Yes. [Indistinct shout-outs]



[Verse 1]

Hey yo we handle it, these brothers are fabulous

Dilated showing you what rhyme travel is

Words spitoon from sunlight to moon

Bustin' on stage like gunfight saloons

Click clack, my mic back, you like that?

Journalists? We're journalists too, we could strike back

Hardcore reporters with orders from headquarters

Behind enemy lines, sidestepping the borders

With press passes, we bring it to you as it happens

The streets love my crew for music and rappin

Street commander slash beat expander

Here to fight the slander with the proper propaganda

What's happenin'? You got a question? Then ask it

The news is just a TV show, get past it

And this, from a quiet wartime journalist



Headlines, wake up, refuse and resist



Resist, like this, like this, like

Like thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-this, y'all



[Chorus]

We kick finance action, and scores of sports

Politics, new fashion and war reports

Entertainment, when we come to perform watch

And the illest weatherman in the biz, I'm storm watch

Triclops Media, record, tape and TV, Net radio, CD or DVD

Iriscience (write rhymes on paper time)

This is why Baboo is scratching and keeping time



[Scratching] I make the people listen boogy down and move



[Verse 2]

Glory, The pen is mighter than the sword

Cause the pen gives the word sending swords to war

They twisted it when they quoted Mao Tse-tung

They said political power comes from the barrel of a gun

The officer meets his fate, by .44 .38

It was a dirty deed, but that don't mean a dirty case

Witnesses against the state are shushed

Facts overlooked so the judge can throw the book

Perhaps for politicians with something to prove

In the city where they blew the roof off and move



Yo, questions when answered leads to more questions

Why'd it take months to remember a confession?

The principles are the same even without the name

But I still say M-U-M-I-A



I have to fight, it could easily be me

But just being the thinker than speakin it freely

Although I use my brain before using a fist

Don't push it, wake up, refuse and resist



[Scratching]

[Chorus]
