“The white unemployment rate is nearly more than triple for black, so front liners got they gun in your back… Bubbling crack, jewel theft and robbery to combat poverty, and end up in the global jail economy… Stiffer stipulations attached to each sentence, budget cutbacks but increased police presence… And even if you get out of prison still living join the other five million under state supervision… This is business, no faces just lines and statistics, from your phone, your zip code, to SSI digits… The system break man, child and women into figures, two columns for who is and who ain't niggas… Numbers is hard and real and they never have feelings, but you push too hard, even numbers got limits… Why did one straw break the camel's back? Here's the secret The million other straws underneath it, it's all mathematics.” Yasiin Bey CARTER™️ Magazine carter-mag.com #wherehistoryandhiphopmeet #historyandhiphop365 #cartermagazine #carter #yasiinbey #mosdef #blackhistorymonth #blackhistory #history #staywoke https://www.instagram.com/p/CjSpgXMLPaP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hustle never quits. From the DJ spinning on turntables to the space decked out in graffiti – real performers make bystanders break out and dance. In the beginning, Brooklyn seismically shook the genre to its core…
