Kap G taps T.I. and David Banner for the remix to his “La Policia” remix. This is a timely record considering everything that’s going on in America right now. T.I. and David Banner gave an explanation of the record during Fader Fort this year at SXSW
โFor decades there has been a fear and true resentment for the young minorityโs presence in our countryโs society. This has led to the consistent barrages of unlawful arrests, unwarranted profiling, and shameful assassinations of our OUR FATHERS, BROTHERS, COUSINS, UNCLES, GRANDFATHERS, SONS and in some cases, OUR DAUGHTERS, SISTERS, MOTHERS and GRANDMOTHERS (come on now??). The blatant disregard for the value of OUR PEOPLEโs rights, lives, and legacies have been ever present in America for all of US to see. Yet, nonexistent to all of YOU who choose not to. How long can WE expect any human beingโno, any living creature to continue to accept inferior/substandard treatment, and conditions before the inevitable happens?โ
“From the beginning,” David Banner added, “the relationship between police departments and communities of color has been a tumultuous one. For too long, some officers have abused their authority and have not upheld their commitment to protect and serve all members of the community.”
