Kanye West
“New God Flow”
“Picture working so hard, and you can’t cut through, that can mess up your whole life like an uncle that touched you, what has the world come to, I’m from the 312, where cops don’t come through and dreams don’t come true … 40 killings in a weekend, 40 killings in a week, man the summer too hot you can feel it in the street.”
Kanye raps for the blue-collar worker who toils hard and never breaks through or improves their financial standing. He also raps about the sad violence that continues to plague Chicago streets.
