December 01, 2006Papoose "50 Shots"Courtesy of nahright.com, Papoose comes with a swift response to the killing of Sean Bell by the NYPD, the night before his wedding day. A rip from local radio, supplemented by the hearfelt commentary of Kay Slay. I like the sentiment more than I like the execution, but good to see someone is stepping up to bat. Posted by jsmooth995 at December 1, 2006 11:35 AM Comments
I just listened. Fuck the police. Kay Slay is so right. I hate em. Hate a strong word. And I know what I'm saying. -Black People Posted by: Black People at December 1, 2006 11:25 PM race profiling not involved..... riight. Posted by: trusouth at December 1, 2006 11:52 PM fuck the police i swear if i could id kill all dem muthafuckin white cops word up dat shyt was wrong what dey did fuck dem niggaz forrreal Posted by: lil one at December 2, 2006 06:43 PM yall are fuckin stupid one of the cops was black and one was spanish so get your facts straight Posted by: jc at December 2, 2006 08:48 PM @ JC above me..It doesn't matter if the cops were white, black, or green, they all stick together no matter what!!! Its cops vs. the rest of the country. Biggest gang in America! So maybe you're the fuckin stupid one? Posted by: KW at December 2, 2006 10:04 PM Yea fuck the po po kill them all right?? If you killed them all you would have nobody to run to when you gettin chased by a bigger nigga. Sleep on your soul you dumb fuk. Posted by: Repin at December 2, 2006 10:10 PM There's no need for the hostility in these comments the point is that an unarmed black man died at the barrel of a police mans gun yet again. They're suppose to be here to serve and protect us not kill us...what those cops did was wrong and if they don't get prosecuted we need to raise hell because that was MURDER. punk ass cops!!! Posted by: angry black person at December 2, 2006 10:58 PM Yo the Police do mess up no1 is perfect but every1 makes mistakes and every1 screws up at 1 time in life they shouldnt have fired that many times but dont diss the police they keep people in line and help make the world a better place Posted by: Devin at December 3, 2006 01:06 AM fuck the police all over the world Posted by: fuck the police at December 4, 2006 09:26 AM yo yo yo!! Bolo in da place representing UK word!! Papoose keep banging the ill rhymes you are right five-o take things to far its the same thing in the UK and its always the black man that suffers. Not saying that we are all angles but then ask yourself if a non black man was driving that car would thay of taken such actions by shooting that many times? Also Black people need to take responsibility for them selfs. PEACE..... Posted by: Ian at December 4, 2006 11:04 AM It's funny how niggas act up when police shot another nigga meanwhile niggas shoting other niggas for steping on sneakers...lol
What cha niggas going to do--Revelotionize the problem,LOL...There's no such thing in BlackAmerica... Posted by: Eleazar at December 4, 2006 08:17 PM Brothas killin brothas is the real problem. 50 shots is uncalled for no matter what the situation. What about the people living in the houses around that neighborhood? I wish our community would be enraged like this when a majority of Hip Hop in airplay glorifies the violence that truly decimates our communites. We need to save ourselves...fuck babylon! Slay da vampire dem...Dead Prez and Midnite to feed your minds. Revolution starts within! Posted by: one love ras jah bee at December 4, 2006 09:13 PM The blue police will never respect the young, the Black, the poor especially when there will be no repercussions to their malicious actions. They also will not respect us, especially when we don't respect ourselves. We can rap about it day in & day out, everything will still remain the same. Posted by: BlackCTzar at December 4, 2006 10:40 PM Shout out to Paps for reactin and havin something to say. But will Slay please..please..(yes, I'm beggin) shut his ign'int ass up? Posted by: jay willz at December 4, 2006 11:21 PM F### The Police I have no respect for this what so ever. Posted by: Lea at December 5, 2006 12:35 AM Good to see some lyrics with a purpose. thank you papoose. as far as the cops go they are conditioned to think that black men are the scum of the earth and even if you are innocent you will not be viewed in that manner. you will be viewed as a young black man who is probably involved in something illegal (even amongst our own people) we are judge by the other races as well as our own. every rapper talks about crime and they are the mainstream medias perception of us. yes it is ignorant but that is the way it is until we change that perception from within. without that there is no cohesive black community and definately no revolution. Posted by: mrh8terman at December 6, 2006 12:58 AM so basiclly the were scared from what they imagined Posted by: mrh8terman at December 6, 2006 12:59 AM The ouestion is can we wait 4 change? what could we do NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my heart gose out to all my black people that lost there life do to the hands of hate.. peace & love jah bless. Posted by: bklyn at December 6, 2006 10:44 AM there where black slave owners, does that mean slavery didn't happen. cops (no matter what race) are trained the idea in white neighborhoods, the people are innocent until proven guilty. in black neighborhoods, the people are guilty until proven innocent. Posted by: ray kelly at December 6, 2006 05:42 PM FUCK THEM PIGS OINK OINK A SLUG IN YA MOUF FAGETS Posted by: Justice at December 6, 2006 05:57 PM big ups to Pap for the song and k-slay for having the balls to air it. that young black man was excecuted for being just that a young black man. we are losing the battle my black nation - look at the incarceration rate of our black males... single black mothers trying to raise black babies that don't have a solid family structure or the dominate male to help raise the children... it's time for a revolution, we lost one of our greatest revolutionaries since Malcom, Martin, Panthers & NAACP. 2Pac was a threat to the powers that be, he could have been one of our greatest assets as a activist in this land we call AmieriKKKa. Black people unite before it's to late. Each one teach one! Posted by: atl - gutta at December 8, 2006 02:01 PM YOu are all amazing...you think the cops are the ones to blame for this...get a grip...if someone was running over you or your friend ur tellin me you would just sit there and watch...at that point it didnt come down to race or whether these guys were cops or not...it came down to saving there own lives...this guy who died was an animal...he was arrested on multiple occasions prior and was no pillar to any community...one less for these hero officers to worry about in a city full of no good low life wanna be thugs who live day to day hatin on each other instead of trying help themselves...thank you to the NYPD the real heroes!!!!! Posted by: NYPDisdabest at December 8, 2006 11:48 PM YO FIRST THING IS FIRST R.I.P SEAN BELL YOU'LL BE MISSED AND SECOND THING IS IT HURTS TO SEE HOW WE HAVE SO MUCH HATE AGAINST EACH OTHER KILLING EACH OTHER WITH NO REGUARDS FOR FAMILYS AND THE PAIN YOU CAUSE EACH OTHER .IT REALLY HURTS YO LIKE ITS SO SO SAD WE ARE ALL PEOPLE AND WE SHOULD LIVE IN PEACE N HARMONY AND WITH HATE AND RAGE FOR OTHERS BECAUSE OF HOW THAT PERSON LOOK OR WHAT COLOR IS THERE SKINN IF THIS WORLD WAS BASED ON KILLIN EVERY COLORED PERSON IN THE WORLD YOU DON'T LIKE THEN IT WOULDN'T BE A WORLD IT WOULD BE HELL.THAT WAS WRONG VERY WRONG WHO ARE THE POLICE TO TAKE ANOTHER PERSONS LIFE WHO THE HELL MADE YOU COPS GOD NO NO THERE IS NO HATE FOR COPS CAUSE DON'T GET ME WRONG SOME COPS ARE VERY WELL KEPT PEOPLE WHO REALLY CARES ABOUT THE SAFETY OF PEOPLE.SOME COPS OUT THERE HAVE NO CLUE THEY ARE JUST IDIOTS FOOLS USE COMMON SENCE DON'T JUST THINK YOUR DOING GOOD CAUSE YOUR WEARING A UNIFORM AND A BAGE NO DO GOOD BY TREATING EVERYONE FAIR THAT WAS CALLED FOR IT WAS A WAY BETTER WAY OF HADLEING THAT SITUATION BUT ITS NOTHING BUT LOVE AND PEACE R.I.P SEAN BELL YO KID YOU'LL BE MISSED YO YOU BE MISSED PAPOOSE THANKS FOR STEPPING UP TO HELP THE BLACK COMMUNITY AND FOR LETTING YOU VOICE AND PAIN AND SUFFERING BE HEARD LOVE PEACE AND SOUL 1.HIT ME UP ON MYSPACE ANY COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS ITS NUTTING BUT LOVE FOR EVERYONE http://www.myspace.com/roc89 Posted by: Mii Amor at December 9, 2006 05:12 PM something for Poose... 51st shot Posted by: True Blue at December 9, 2006 06:21 PM DO you fools even know what happen? The cops were DTz one. They came at that nigga like they wanted problems. They didnt kno it was cops at all. AND The guy was trying to leave and the undercover kept fucking wit him and when he pulled shit out that nigga try to hit him and leave. This whole shit was the cops fault. IF this was in any other neghiborhood. A RICH hood the cops would of took alot more caution. And the other guys are right. BLACK or WHITE cops are the biggest gang in the world. And they stick together. Posted by: J at December 10, 2006 12:12 PM Ounce we as a people start to realize that no one cares about, only then will we take on the responsibility of protecting ourselves. Many of our minds are shot due to the years of keeping us out of the main stream. Some how the polititions convinced us to kill our selves. The greatest war on us is ourselves. Black people unit, and realize money and education is power along with the faith and strength of God. Keep it real family. Love ya with all my heart and soul. Posted by: mike at December 10, 2006 12:37 PM I'd like to thank Papoose for stepping up to the plate & I'd also like to thank Kay Slay for being honest & letting the young brutha Pap vent. Now, it's my turn...no, it's OUR TURN. We need to stop accepting what these PIGz & this crooked government does TO us lying down. We need to patronize our own Black businesses. We need to wake up & educate our youth. Bruthaz, if u know a Sistah raising some young boys, lend a hand. Only a MAN can raise another MAN. What ever happened to "It takes a Village to raise a child"? If our Village is in shambles, what do you think the condition of our youth is? WE OWE IT TO OURSELVES, OUR COMMUNITIES & OUR ANCESTORS. LET'S GET IT TOGETHER & TAKE CARE OF HOME. Now, as for the LOW-LIFES that call themselves Officers, THEY'VE GOT TO GO. I don't live in N.Y. but please believe it's the same thing out here in Cali. I am SICK & TIRED of cops KILLING us whenever they feel like it & NOT BEING PUNISHED FOR IT. Rest In Peace to the Brother Sean Bell. Posted by: TRAMELL at December 11, 2006 11:52 AM God help us. violence begats serious violence. it is made no better because now all of blacks america embraces this violence as a cloak of fury to further fuel the fire of history. things may get better but then again they may not, but regardless i'll be praying that we learn to forgive those that wrong us... so that we can progress. because it is unforgiveness that impedes our progress. God help us. Posted by: Rah Sizl at December 13, 2006 01:02 PM I've seen some of ya coments above talking about that one of the cops was black and the other one was spanish!!! guess what they all just fucking pigs!!! they think they can do what ever they want!!! and get away with it!! u make choose 2 belive this or not it dose'nt matter what race u r once u put on that uniform u become just like them dick sucking crackers!!! that brain wash u 2 be racist against ur own race!!! Posted by: miss.diamond at December 13, 2006 05:51 PM Bigups to Pap for this one. The issue seems to be raising controversy but we should all applaud Pap for keeping the dialogue alive with this track. Only discussion and progression will rise us above these problems. thestreetstalk.com PEACE! Posted by: thestreetstalk.com at December 17, 2006 10:46 AM Fuck all of you, you dont see white people gettin' mad over BET Black Entertainment Television, if that shit aint racist IDK what is, sick of all these black people thinking they own this world, look at the statistics black people start the shit, all of the crime man fuck this. Im not racist but a song cant control your lives I see all of these kids that I used to hangout with in Elementary fucken change because of some stupid shit some guy said on a record its like everyones gettin brainwashed, change your fucken self. Cops maintain this country so Kick rocks if you dont like it!!!!! Posted by: ????"""???? at December 17, 2006 09:33 PM Listen!We've been rob,lyunch,enslaved,and demoralize...Whats new under the sun...obviously Posted by: Gotellonthemountain at December 22, 2006 09:06 AM Q&A Why didn't these Police (thug officiers) Posted by: Followup at December 23, 2006 07:09 AM I've just been hanging out not getting anything done. What can I say? I've basically been doing nothing worth mentioning, but pfft. Not that it matters. Pretty much nothing exciting happening to speak of. I haven't been up to much these days. Posted by: TramadoL67620 at December 25, 2006 09:43 AM FUCK THE POLICE Do WHAT YOU got to do wats poppiu Posted by: akillz fsg at December 29, 2006 07:14 PM FUCK DA COPS!!!! Posted by: YoUnG TrAcK at January 2, 2007 07:54 PM Fuck all this shit. Slavery ended 142 years ago get off your fucking high horse and shut the fuck up. This was not racial profiling when an undercover cop tells you to get the fuck out of the car, or freeze do as your fucking told. Another nigger dead because he didn't fucking listen, and don't even bring up that king shit either because he got what he deserved to, he didn't fucking listen either. Fuck this song, I hope your the next to die in a hail of gunfire, after all it's in your nature..... Posted by: John at January 18, 2007 06:23 PM it don't matter man pigs are pigs and they do what they want and don't nobody care Posted by: *D-Star* at January 19, 2007 01:37 PM Post a comment |
