I would ask why there is no rap featured in that post, but I remembered that rap doesn't have bands, just a guy or two that talk and they collaborate with eachother without making official bands or as I guess the rappers would say, "clans".

By the way I'm only talking about the mainstream, I know there is quality rap bands out there.

We got to pump the stuff to make us tough

Its astart
What we need is awareness we cant get careless
Mental self defensive fitness
Make everybody see in order to fight the powers that be
