» Gorbachev: US dragging Russia into new Cold War, which might grow into armed conflict Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind!
The former USSR leader, whose name is associated with the end of the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, is worried about the possible consequences.
“What’s next? Unfortunately, I cannot be sure that the Cold War will not bring about a ‘hot’ one. I’m afraid they might take the risk,” he said.
<!-- infowars/IW-SubPage/IW-SP-ARTICLE-300x250 --> Gorbachev’s criticism of Washington comes as the West is pondering new sanctions against Russia, blaming it for the ongoing military conflict in eastern Ukraine, and alleging Moscow is sending troops to the restive areas. Russia has denied the allegations.
“All we hear from the US and the EU now is sanctions against Russia,” Gorbachev said. “Are they completely out of their minds? The US has been totally ‘lost in the jungle’ and is dragging us there as well.
Gorbachev suggests the situation in the EU is “acute” with significant differences among politicians and different levels of prosperity among member nations.
“Part of the countries are alright, others – not so well, and many, including Germany, are excessively dependent on the US.” » Gorbachev: US dragging Russia into new Cold War, which might grow into armed conflict Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind!

“Lost Angel (City)” is a homophone of Los Angeles (known as the “city of angels”) and refers to the Fallen Angels described in the Bible and other religious texts. Ras Kass is alleging that the city of L.A. was built and grown for a specific purpose, to serve as a capital of sorts for those who are implementing the agenda of Lucifer (Satan) & his legion of unholy angels.

In the Five Percenters (a.k.a.The Nation Of Gods and Earths), an African-American focused sect of Islam, one of their main beliefs is that man’s physical form (more specifically African-American men) is “God’s body”, stating that they themselves are God. This belief ties in with the Christian Bible verses Genesis 1:26-27 (NKJV):
26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness…
Ras Kass is alleging that members of the Freemasons found out about this belief, revered it, and thus decided to suppress and eliminate those who have “God’s body” (African-Americans).
By doing this, they are literally killing God.

The perception of a gangsta or someone who is “street” seems to rapidly change. It is as topsy-turvy as a See-Saw.
See-Saws are fixtures usually found in playgrounds. A person hops on each end and they both take turns raising/lowering.

Lupe, being born and raised in Chicago, readily accepted the opportunity to help remake the theme song for his hometown team.
He explained his verses in a statement:
There is the technical aspect of the song, to get fans to stand up and put their hands up. I got that out of the way early. Then there’s the meaning and nostalgia of the original Bulls theme and then revamping it with new pieces and parts … I was trying to paint this painting in music of what I look at when I see the Bulls.

Being paid isn’t enough, Kendrick needs to be paid with interest because of all the years he, and other black people, worked without proper compensation.
Kendrick having pride in the size of his genitalia is also a part of the album’s theme—Kendrick identifying, and stereotyping, himself as a black man. Another example of this can be later in the album on “The Blacker the Berry”:
The song is from the perspective of an artist standing up for himself. The dick, metaphorically, is his art.
This line is saying that he is a huge artist (nine inch dick is statistically an outlier) and he needs more payment for his art (“matter of fact, it need interest”).
The following lines talk about how he historically faced low pension rates, pinched percent, checks with less endorsement.

Kendrick iterates how being paid isn’t enough, and after how the Black population have been exploited for many years for free, Kendrick now demands payment (as in reparations) along with interest that built up all these years. He also says that it is nine inches too, and takes pride in the fact that genitalia of black men are often sought after and considered big by women across all ages.
