I can’t deny, Eminem has kicked serious ass with the video for his new song “Mosh” by GNN (who have been kicking ass online since the 90’s).
I’m embarassed to say… this video gave me chills. Especially the scenes of the soldier retuning home to his family only to find he’s been redeployed, and the mother getting an eviction notice while Bush gives away tax cuts. Visually, this video is calling on people to put on the black bloc hoodie and bring it to the streets.
Oh, and also VOTE. Here’s an excerpt from the lyrics:
Imagine it pouring, it’s raining down on us
Mosh pits outside the oval office
Someone’s tryina tell us something,
Maybe this is god just sayin’ we’re responsible
For this monster, this coward,
That we have empowered
This is Bin Laden, look at his head noddin’
How could we allow something like this without pumping our fists
Now this is our final hour
Let me be the voice in your strength and your choice
Let me simplify the rhyme just to amplify the noise
Try to amplify the times it, and multiply by six…
Ten million people, Are equal at this high pitch
Maybe we can reach Al Quaeda through my speech
Let the president answer a higher anarchy
Strap him with an Ak-47, let him go, fight his own war
Let him impress daddy that way
No more blood for oil, we got our own battles to fight on our own soil
No more psychological warfare, to trick us to thinking that we ain’t loyal
If we don’t serve our own country, we’re patronizing a hero
Look in his eyes its all lies
The stars and stripes, they’ve been swiped, washed out and wiped
And replaced with his own face, Mosh now or die
If I get sniped tonight you know why,
Cause I told you to fight.
