Saturday, February 05, 2005Nike Who count the money
In da neighborhood But we spendin' money To no end lookin' for a friend In a war to the core Rippin' up the poor in da stores Till they get a brother Kickin' down doors Then I figure I kick it bigger Look 'em dead in the eye And they wince Defense is pressurized They don't want it to be Another racial attack In disguise so give some money back I like Nike but wait a minute The neighborhood supports so put some Money in it Corporations owe Dey gotta give up the dough To da town or else We gotta shut 'em down (Public Enemy - Shut Em Down) What happened to this type of thinking? I'm calling out Nike because they have so many people in the Hip Hop community mesmerized and brain washed in thinking that owning 20 pairs of kicks is in. I'm not hating on people who own Nike's, but if you have more than three pairs and paid more than $75 for each pair, then you have fallen into the major corporation trap. How many more corporation are going to pimp the Hip Hop community for outlandish profits and use these profits to make themselves look big. How many big time athletes are going to make more millions on top of the millions they make at the Hip Hop communities expense. It's sad that Hip Hoppers around the world blindly support such corruption.
