The vibrations in Saul's lyrical resonance echoes and shatters the minds of the other inmates. Pure brilliance he has Go; on his side and legions of angels. Just like the vibration of the trumpets destroy the walls of Jericho!!! Joshua 6: 1-27... Vibration is metaphysical!!!

"Stealing us was the smartest thing they ever did" Saul ain't never lied. Imagine if they didn't? What would their world be without us? Would there even be a south, which was built by the blood sacrifice of my brothers and sisters?

youd be surprised. I saw an episode of "locked up abroad", true story, where a white guy got locked up in the sickest jail in mexico city, mexico. When he played his guitar the prison boss heard him play, liked it and took him under his wing and protected him throughout his stay! Interesting what Art can do!

I saw this on Bounce TV today! This movie was too good I had to stay in the house and watch it though my ass had to go out and look for a job lmao! This movie really shows the life of DC and poetry also hip hop! I was surprised this came out in 1998, DC back then looked alittle different than it does now cause there more buildings in the city smh. I live in DC and this is how DC really is! The rap scene was very original with the foundation! And Saul killed it being this young guy that's tryna escape the life of the streets with poetry rap! Like this is very influential! But he tore it in the DC Jail around them guys! After that one guy said "I forgot what the fuck I was going say"! LMAO! That truth must've fucked him up lol
