      russell is anti-hiphop, he doesn't care about us any more than wall street cared for slaves. and incase you forgot. "We are living the american nightmare"-Malcom X and russell's no $ genus either just a guy how took advantage of his friends and his race. Talks about us like were slaves, say'n we all act the same, there are so many different styles of hip hop, in fact everyone brings something different to the table. $$$ ALL HAIL RUSSELL KING OF THE BLACK BOURGEOIS $$$
