Klanhattan KlanVillage Mixtape – Median Income Edition is the definitive version of the Klanhattan KlanVillage Mixtape. We know “ukabila ni ujinga”; there are two klans, the global elite minority “barbie” / “Klanhattan” economic klan and the village poors. A two-year effort from the struggle heart of the village, Median Income Edition includes new collabos with Mohjay, Pope Quiet Tha Loudmouth, Bosco Baya, Ekori Turkana, and Qama. Featuring “MohTeachins” from Mohjay, and new mixes produced by Block, Mohjay, Pope Quiet Tha Loudmouth, and Kevlexicon. This tape bounces from the respective KlanVillages across continents. We are supporting a federation of the dispossessed, united in our struggle for economic rights and justice in the face of generational poverty and institutionalized economic exclusion. By engaging openly and actively with reality, we generate our potential. “When we unite, we are very powerful.” Pamoja.
mistari / lyrics:
hole ( you’re just poor )
maybe I wuz born strange, breakin thru ur door chains,
fakin it w false names,
u get girls, GREAT,
i got court dates,
…mayb I got the wrong face for a sing-a-long show,
when I murder a unicorn and shatter a privilege dream of a mental child,
contort my body into a pile of garbage,
piled on the concrete, cold n chilly,
neva had a cheerleader for my fites in philly,
table round w a pole innit, strip club town w a hole in it,
wall w a hole in it, street w a wall in it, wanna leave Wall St. wit a hole in it,
wallet w a hole in it,
speak when i swallowd it,
nerds wanna follow it,
drink that hollow shit,
kill for a scholarship,
spill for a dollar tip,
Ahfrican, neva get acknowledgement,
You’re jus pooor (skia)
You’re jus POOOORR, POOOOO—OOOORR
Ur jus poor (unaskia)
Ur jus ppppoooor (Mambo bad)
Recorded my first studio track with Ukoo Flani,
Toka maumau kambi, kisha shambani,
Tuko pa1 sana,
Ova here smoking that marijuana, u wana go back w me,
To the bodaboda, barabara,
Go to batabata owned by a czech company,
Am jus a slav slob wit no job,
Gonna starve probably,
Wen it comes to emotionally fulfillment,
Cuz i can’t get w that illness,
Cuz u aint got the realness,
So am ova here,
Probly gunna end up havn to steal shit,
–YES, welcom to the blessing,
ova here, testing,
ova, so stress-ing,
Ok…
the best thing is the next best, the next best,
til I get,
the bottom of ur checklist,
“to-do” list,
fuck it, it’s ova, do shit,
watch me as i moove shit, yeh
Thanks Jim, Patrick, & Alejandro for helpin w the shoot. #Village
Asante Sana,
