Some Call It A Conspiracy...






"The mere fact that some of these cats and coons don't even attempt to disguise the allegiances that they take and the deals they make. Takes away one of the trappings of being a conspiracy, which is that of being in secrecy.  In fact, many arrogantly flaunt their positions right in the faces of the people.  In a climate where a Sean "Pufball" Combs can shower Jennifer Lopez with lavish luxurious enough to fund a small army. Or a Kanye West can financially fund the lives and careers of the entire Kardashian Klan. Then invest 34,000 dollars a piece for a gold diamond encrusted skull.  One provided for Shawn Slave-Z Carter on fathers day and the other for Kim Kardashian. 


 In fact the same idol/item in which the late Michael Jackson purchased for Elizabeth Taylor. There have been those that have inquired as to what could make these aspiring capitalists comfortable enough to invest in such idolatry of the Illuminati and images of Imperialism. But not drop a dime in the interest of the most disenfranchised communities? For the jackpots that the Michael Jackson's and fortunes and finances that the Oprah's, O J's and Wests' have invested into the same white folks and ruling class institutions. That later came back and bit them in one form or another can't be told in words. Then in the same breath, the same Black people denied by these "success stories" will hold these negroes up as Black history legends. 


Furthermore, don't jive me with the typical responses, ie; "They have the Bill Cosby, Oprah Winfrey Charities, or the D-Slave Wade, Tyler Perry fake philanthropy funding, and/or the Ludacriss foundations, etc." Or any other of the antics and tactics that simply serve as tax write offs or operate as oil to further fuel future fodder for the machine. And in nor form of the matter even attempts to address the legitimate business of Black folks at hand."

Fred Hampton Jr. Slams Jay-Z Over "Murder to Excellence" Lyrics (Open In New Window Here)

Fred Hampton Jr. Slams Jay-Z BET Music Photos
Fred Hampton Jr., son of slain Black Panther chairman Fred Hampton, has a few choice words for Jay-Z. The political martyr's offspring has taken issue with Jay invoking his father's name on the Watch the Throne song "Murder to Excellence."

"I arrived on the day Fred Hampton died / Real n***as just multiply," he intones on the track, referencing his birth on December 4, 1969 — the same day Hampton was gunned down in his bedroom in a raid by Chicago police and the FBI.

At a screening of the new film The Black Power Mixtape: 1967–1975 at the University of Chicago, Hampton Jr. objected to Jay-Z's characterization of his father's death, which he took as a slight against history, according to the Ruby Hornet.

"Fred Hampton didn't die, he was assassinated," Hampton Jr. said. "Saying Fred Hampton died is like the school teacher telling students that Christopher Columbus discovered America."

Hampton Jr. then went on to refer to Jay-Z as "Slave-Z," reportedly inciting both scattered applause and shocked silence at the screening.

The rapper has yet to comment on the matter. Hampton Jr., 41, was born four weeks after his father's murder.
