February 7th 2006 at 8:11 am in I recently ordered the CD Sonic Jihad by Paris:
It arrived yesterday together with the deluxe edition of an oldie, Sleeping with the Enemy that I also ordered.
Speaking of Sleeping with the Enemy — did you know:
Originally slated for a pre-presidential election release in 1992, this sophomore effort by Paris was intentionally suppressed by the recording establishment until after the election in November of that year. It caused a firestorm of controversy with two songs in particular, “Bush Killa,” a revenge fantasy about the assasination of then president George Bush (Sr.) for neglect of poor conditions in oppressed communities nationwide [...]
Anyways, I played Sonic Jihad on my way to work today and it’s excellent.
I expected a pissed-off Paris, and I got it. As usual he’s on point, not afraid to speak his mind and doesn’t waste time on bullshit.
A Hard Truth Soldier to the bone.
