Welcome to Blackish University! Griots of a modern world.
Now more than ever, we lack access to the older generations that have credible information about the world around us.
Our school system releases specific information and corporations, which own our media and are very selective with the information shared with the people.
Sometimes, you need assistance and guidance a normal university just can’t provide.
What exactly is a griot (gree-oh)? Since the 13th century, the people of West Africa have relied on griots to help spread knowledge from generation to generation. They were storytellers and musicians, but most importantly, they were oral historians of their communities.
Let's be real. Our information is manipulated and censored. Schools and Universities will teach us the same garbage about Christopher Columbus while leaving out information about Africa, weird stories about Antarctica, Black Wall Street, Native Americans, Civil Rights, Racism in America...etc.

*Arachnophobia Maybe a little wordplay on Iraq... Black petroleum was the reason it was invaded, but initially, they had to instill fear into the hearts and minds of the American people to seem legit (Fear of spiders/Anansi/the Black man) Phobias are usually an IRRATIONAL fear, and fearing a spider is crazy because it serves the important purpose of ridding pests from your home, so essentially, you NEED it the same way they need Black people to be the number one consumers in Capitalist America...These are just my takeaways as I do not claim to speak on behalf of Mr. Trotter a.k.a. Black Thought
This is a banger man you gotta do more Lyt
Ned/Elvis?
You should type it into the defense lawyers they appear to be the only ones investigating anything in this case
Great reaction and breakfown of the lyrics, but man are you terrible at pausing when you want to 😂 all love
Chimera are also fish that live in the deep deep ocean, so he eats (or lives ) at the lowest but flys (or when he gets high) he feels close to heaven there is no middle ground for him
Marlon is a beast, a true lyricist!
When he said you got bruse daddy chopped the brick down put the clip in. That is bruse jenner sex change cut his pee pee off the clip is the tampon. Every single word he says has three meanings
Nice breakdown. While I agree with your point about the dancers, I actually think they are a visual reference to the term 'Asphalt Ballet', which is slang for crashing a motorcycle.
7:00 Canibus released that track in 2007 which means he released it after this song came out. I don't think Lupe is doing some layered stuff like Canibus but this song certainly is layered (atleast the first verse lol). Anyways, only a handful of people know about that Canibus track. I've subscribed because of it. ❤😊
Do wolf rusty
Best reaction to this track.
'Everybody looking up at the sky for God to work(Forgot to work) Well i was made in the Image of God, it gotta work (it's God at work)"
Fun fact: I learned as a kid that I can wake myself up from a bad dream or anything dream simply by closing my eyes tightly in the dream itself.
Go for guts
I'm sorry to all the real rappers in the history of rap, but I put this verse by this first dude as the greatest in the history of rap.
woah your ancestors are cape verdian im cape verdian too if you give me your last names or your ancestors last name i can tell you what island they are from
That's the definition of art. You make it and people get what they get out of it 😊
He adopts a lot of animals
We uses tchotchke in the moving company I worked for. You are right they are annoying useless top load crap.😂 Gotta protect their precious moments 😊
I have been leaving this life all this time,I thought my girl would be there just waiting but I been treating her like shit,because of my pride but all this time she been learning to unlove me. all my bros told me to lock her down or I will regret it and im currently neck deep in this stuff.I hope GOD answers my prayer and doesnt take the women of my dreams away from me.KMT
His 3rd eye open He fire
I think "NaN for the normies" is referring to a computer science term "not a number" which is used to represent an abstract that cannot be defined or represented
We need your service sir!!! We need your take on these Kendrick diss tracks. There’s layers being pulled back on other places but I know you’ll bring a whole… notha …. Level.. to this.
You are so knowledgeable. Such a good reaction!
Nas Greatest Poet/Writter Of All Time
Slim shady is not a god of anything. King Los is the ghost writer for that wack inferior gene pool. He can doesn't sound battle rapper in this. He is everything. Slim shady is not coming for King Los
Can we have atleast a sign of life bro? Really curious what happened to you
Wazzzzzzzuuuuupppppp!!!!!!
@@BlackishUniversity hope you’re doing allright bro. Will there be any new videos coming soon?
"I have been a fan of DAY LYT [ delight (the light <de lyte >)] for a while but meeting you now , I am a fully blown out air conditioner 🐾 🥷no diddy. " P.S : thank you for posting
It's worth noting that this song is said to be for his mother, and that he has two brothers (i.e., she has "pulled" three creatures from her womb). "Greasy grimy gopher guts" at its most abstract is just pure "boy" energy. Three boys. "Oh" is what the parent says after letting the child "go" to live their own life, which they never could have predicted.
I think that's a Slim Shady beat thou
It was nas I think
this is my favourite song ever written, so thanks so much for this
Thanks so much for sharing this my brother! This song and album were 🔥 back in '92. I had the cassette and studied the lyrics back then. The whole album was deep, but this song carried the strongest message. Thanks for sharing!
Good catching the "grab" Sentenced alot: Sittin salaat Remember the shop: Shot, follow the phonetics. Horses mouth or eyewitness account Block hot from the law: with the law I never sleepwalk When you dead You get your shuteye
Bro I know I’m maddddd late but I’m just seeing your break down of this song but there’s still some stuff that I think you missed but this guy is a monster of the double and triple auntantra I’m sure I spelled that wrong lmao but listen to more of his music with that and black power movements in mind and you will see he’s the future of lyrical content rap music
it's a shame that our society can't sit long enough to listen to a intellectual breakdown of highest level bars. thank you for doing what you doing and I hope this breakdown gets a million views one day
Hey bro, hoping you are doing well. It’s been a while since your last update. Wish you would do some reactions again
Best breakdown I've seen
Man I hate to say it like this but sometimes it's nice during these big songs directions if you listen to the whole song once and react minimally before dissecting it? Could just be me but I'd love to watch you go over everything but it feels unnatural to break it down into 5-10 seconds parts from the get go
*dissections
God creates , not control , and God existence can be proven with things such as double slot experiment, Fractals and the perfect tuning of the entire universe. The big bang did not happen and to think the universe was created from nothing goes against any scientific method. But to believe that you can create something physical from nothing is a bigger stretch than believing in God just my opinion
U forgot lettuce
Yo I find something new everytime I listen to this track. He says when I was Po (poor) I was Lo (low) now me and my chaps cop Purple Label (which is high end Ralph Lauren who also own the lower tier brand Polo from the Po and the Lo at the beginning of the line) and then with the Chaps line you spotted in this video it has just blown my mind again! Arrrghhhh this dude is genius!
NaS made this song shortly after this interview came out 🐐 ua-cam.com/users/shortsP4vH3mDdJfg?si=Rh7ZSMpLoLKatIQL
Ye over NaS is crazy
You’ll blow up the better you get at thumbnails and other stuff this is dope.
folks miss the "Clarence Avant" line a lot. he's talking about the Godfather of Black Entertainment, who was a mover but often stayed in the shadows. I didn't appreciate that line until I saw the Netflix special about Avant. Tariq too illll
love your commentary brother. intellectual dipped in that grimy. keep it up!!!
14:13 this entire song is really relatable to me tbh (& album... and discography), so my interpretation comes more out of my own experience but to me the "suicide lane..." feels like it's describing the pressure to keep up with what feels like speeding traffic on all sides while carrying a lot of emotional baggage (wide load), not exactly sure what ride looting means, other than perhaps feeling like he's being taken advantage of or "looted" but I imagine someone in the "suicide lane," under pressure to make a decision or move forward with life, and that pressure leads to an amicable marooning, or self-imposed isolation, which is amicable because that isolation relieves the pressure he was under - in a lot of ways isolation feels like a huge relief 21:23 an interesting element on the spoon theory discussion is that Aes has worked a lot of "menial jobs" (his words) and I don't know what that consisted of for him but you can hear that experience & his problems with work all throughout Labor Days and I can say from my own experience that the long term toll that labor can take on the body can cost a lot of spoons without really being visible at all, and that's compounded by not taking care of yourself (letting moonpies get moldy) 33:38 I don't think pirouetting innards is about a hangover specifically - I think it's more about his mental health broadly (I'm filtering this through my own experience - I don't want to imply that I actually know what he's gone through, I just relate to the lyrics) "you were sitting at the gate awaiting spirits and provisions" reads to me like seeing other people as having easy lives, at least comparatively, meanwhile Aes is held back by nausea and headaches, physical symptoms of chronic anxiety that can become debilitating in their own right, and the fact that that stops him from going out or being a "normal" member of society makes him question his own humanity (who's there simian or lizard) -- you mentioned sitting at the gate implying tailgate, that also fits with some of his other songs ('party over here, I'll be over there" - I think from dorks), that also kinda supports the anxiety read - he feels separated from people who tailgate and have loud parties, and he also feels like they have some special privilege he doesn't, hence the "holy gate" implications of the line "misanthrope vying for affection" is a really strong descriptor - he wants to love and care for people, but his behavior is misanthropic because of his emotional state and exhaustion and distrust towards other people to add a tangent to this very long UA-cam comment (sorry about that...), I'm autistic (probably would have been called Asperger's back in the day, but it's all under the same label now), and I don't want to assert anything about somebody else's brain, but I definitely see a lot of commonalities in his music, and I wanted to mention it because I think it really feeds into the social isolation that he talks about - for a lot of people who are intelligent and also autistic there's a sense of understanding and caring for the people around you but struggling to communicate and function in a normal social context I read the chorus sections as being about him trying to spread love and positivity in the world, but doing so through caring for animals because he doesn't know how to have that kind of relationship with other people. In the song "Hot Dogs" is the line "just not a people person please forgive me if I'm flustered // I'll save a thousand whales before your grits are even buttered" - he feels guilty for not being able to share his love with people, and animals could either be an alternative outlet for that love, or a stepping stone towards connecting with people, but I also feel like him caring for animals in the choruses represents his music - he doesn't feel like he can maintain the relationships in his life, but he can pick people up, put some inspiring words in their ears, and hope it does some good
I know I'm commenting 11 months fter the video but "Hot enough black" - when something burns it turns black "It's too hot to handle, you got blue sandals" - you got cold feet and ran away, when you get cold your skin turns blue, hence blue sandals
