Logic x Shadia Mansour: So Serious
Brand new video from South London’s Logic (co-founder with Lowkey of the youth mobilization group, The People’s Army), and the great Shadia Mansour.
The song itself, a would-be rally cry for justice, does not offer much in the way of lyrics until the last bit of Logic’s verse, which he ends with “The Army, everybody must come together, keep screamin ‘Free Free Palestine’ forever. It’s revolution, so get up and stand up. Insh’Allah, I’ll make it to jannah (heaven).” And, of course, Ms. Mansour gets right to the point in her verse:
Me, I don’t believe in human laws that don’t do me no good
Laws that empty my pockets
I’m like the Earth’s core, ready to blow at any time if you get me pissed
My characteristics are not one; they’re in all directions
I’m sorry if y’all don’t like it
Yo, presidents! Look what y’all created
A monster that’ll expose you for who you truly are
Seriously, y’all make me laugh!
