the Druski parody about #Blackbritish actors taking jobs away from #BlackAmericans. He deflects saying that his success allowed him to bring many African Americans on board; but a Black American with the same success would have done the same. He also judges those

Before I get started, I wanted to mention the best thing I experienced on my respite trip down to my old stomping ground of London.
You'll be unsurprised that I visited the Black Music exhibition at the V&A East. It was an amazing experience; fully immersive with a curated soundtrack that responds to the items you're looking at.
This exhibition will profoundly change the way music exhibits are curated in the future; highly recommended!

The Whiteness of the British State which refuses to treat Black British people with dignity and respect.
Smells very 'Colonial', doesn't it?

#NowPlaying [ Hippychick -> Soho - Got no flowers for your gun. ]
#Soho - Hippychick
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NJOxplMeNiI#Lyrics :
It's hard to tell you how I feel without hurting you
So try to think about yourself the way that I see you
You're life revolves around the force of oppression
And I won't deal with the true blue devils of correction
Got no flowers for your gun
No hippychick
Won't make love to change your mind
No hippychick
No hippychick
No, hip hip hip hip hip
Today, we'll sit here drinking coffee in your incident room
Tonight, you'll close the door and lock me in that bare bulb gloom
Love, it ain't something riding on a motorbike
And love, I stopped loving you since the miners' strike
Got no flowers for your gun.Originally released in 1990 then re-released in the UK in 1991. This was a hit in the USA first, although the instrumental version was a Balearic hit through the summer of 1990 and topped the dance charts.
