I’ve been listening to this song several times a day almost every day since mid July. I’ve also been learning about the black panthers during that time. I’m ready Revolutionary Suicide right now, but the context didn’t make sense for me until now and it’s shifted this whole video into perspective. Of course this is just my personal interpretation of it: I don’t think it’s necessary to point out that the song is about the Black Panther Party because that’s pretty obvious. I do think it’s worth mentioning that I think the context for the first scene makes sense being inspired by Huey Newton’s visit to Kaiser Hopsital after being accused of being in a police shootout that resulted in the death of officer John Frey. When Huey was stopped by police and being arrested, he was shot in the stomach by one of the officers. He was taken to Kaiser Hospital and was immediately chained to the examining table and beaten on by the police. According to Huey in his book, police also was continually harassed by police during his recovery but that’s all explained in Revolutionary Suicide. Taking that event into account and it all sort of clicks into perspective.

I'm sure every trained muscle on his body only comes from rapping his soul off

[@burntramenASMR]

He goes so hard that it's a work out!😁 have you seen videos of him after a show? He's sweating buckets and it's not the lights cause usually it's very dark!

[@roriestill6231]

This song and video keeps getting more deep, powerful, and pro-Black each time I watch it. This might be number eight.

[@jackward9016]

Jesus these guys are underrated

[@BlackishUniversity]

We do intellectual breakdowns on my KZbin channel and someone recommended Clipping - Blood Of The Fang. WOW! The one song took me over an hour to break down. lol. Excellent overall work!!

[@OdieEsty]

I watched this like 6 times before I got the visual pun at the end he eats a gun

[@Broppo]

I know we are here for the music and all but mannnn Diggs looks cut as hell 😱👌

[@Rhlgull1331]

Does Diggs have the same wound he had in the Get Up video?

[@KidHellacious]

YESSSSSS NEW CLIPPING IM SO EXCITED THIS IS HAPPENING! For real! A year ago I wasn’t sure if new clipping would ever even happen or when... but now it’s here! Eek

[@ambskater97]

Queen Angela done told y'all grasp at the root So what y'all talking 'bout "hands up, don't shoot"?

[@makannetflix9030]

KZbin algorithm doesn't let me watch this video for the 100th time.. I have to search it in clipping channel :3

[@ThePersonNetwork]

Same here, I think it's blacklisted.

[@_jagger1407]

Weird, this happens to me on 96 Neve Campbell too

[@TheCynicalPinnacle]

All three tracks teasing the album have been fucking stellar ⁠- thank you for uncompromisingly doing you, Clipping!

[@FeralWorker]

Google/KZbin seems to've made this unsearchable.

[@weatethebirds]

yeah, had to search it on clppng's youtube channel

[@kevinlong4657]

This has me stoked. I keep bumping this multiple times in a row and just wanting to turn it up. Love the video, the lyrics and the beat. Sick.

I am honoured to know this group and to see this video. Life is so much more profound after seeing a masterpiece like this.
