Havoc that thrills us in a way we want to scream out loud…
ICE-T and his metal gang BODY COUNT are back with a loud and fucking clear message. New single NO LIVES MATTER doesn’t need much explanation actually. It’s a furious, smoking hot, in-your-face manifesto about racism, about America 2017. An alternative take on the debate between Black Lives Matter and All Lives Matter movements.
All hell breaks loose after the veteran rapper’s opening statement: ” It’s unfortunate that we even have to say ‘Black Lives Matter’, I mean, if you go through history nobody ever gave a fuck. I mean, you can kill black people in the street, nobody goes to jail, nobody goes to prison. But when I say ‘Black Lives Matter’ and you say ‘All Lives Matter’, that’s like if I was to say ‘Gay Lives Matter’ and you say ‘All Lives Matter’. If I said, ‘Women’s Lives Matter’ and you say ‘All Lives Matter’, you’re diluting what I’m saying. You’re diluting the issue. The issue isn’t about everybody. It’s about black lives, at the moment“.
A nasty, crushing headbutt that matters…
‘No Lives Matter’ is the first single from new album ‘Bloodlust’ out 31 March.
