We don’t think you fight fire with fire best ; we think you fight fire with water best. We’re going to fight racism not with racism, but we’re going to fight with solidarity. We say we’re not going to fight capitalism with black capitalism, but we’re going to fight it with socialism. We’re stood up and said we’re not going to fight reactionary pigs and reactionary state’s attorneys like this and reactionary state’s attorneys like Hanrahan with any other reactions on our part. We’re going to fight their reactions with all of us people getting together and having an international proletarian revolution.

    not surprising that killer mike gets all this press and el-p gets nothing because one of them is actually anti-capitalist and one of them is a purely aesthetic landlord defending ass

      He's not even as anti-cop as he is in his music. Started crying when protesters were tearing shit up in Atlanta. And that shit was mild compared to some of the things he says in his songs.

        look I'm no Landlord Mike stan but the backstory behind how he wound up at that press conference is pretty wild. TI pretty much dragged him there

        pretty sure those tears weren't about shit getting smashed, but given how he makes his money who knows

          Why is he still having anything to do with T.I. "Hymen Inspector" P.?
