the world is listening-Akua Naru热门评论
採样《I Don't Trust Myself 》by John Mayer
WordPlay和押韵玩的太屌了
这姐未免有点太酷了[钟情]
hug me until i smell like you.
女人拿起麦的样子像自由女神像
好听的歌不需要999+，又不是皮炎平。
Akua Naru（也称为Akua Olatunji）美国的嘻哈MC /说唱歌手。 Naru自2008年后定居在欧洲。Naru的音乐融合了各种乐器和音乐风格，特别是加纳的鼓，灵魂乐，爵士乐和嘻哈乐。 2018年，Naru在Hiphop档案研究所担任Nasir Jones Hiphop研究员，开始在哈佛大学进行有关嘻哈女性成就档案的研究。
采样：I Don't Trust Myself (With Loving You)
有几句翻错了的歌词翻译表示，希望这首歌想要讲的话能被更多人听到：我们要谈性别和种族，要谈权利和政治，因为社会要进步，人类要自由。
我们要的是自由，不是你们冠冕堂皇白人至上政治统治的借口。这个世界人人都能不断发声发光发热，种族歧视并不是全人类同胞生来就具有。——弗洛伊德事件有感
无论多久没听再听都会觉得牛逼且伟大的一首歌，我听到了热爱Hiphop（同时自己也很牛逼），对抗性别歧视，追求梦想，直面由肤色带来的困难，大量致敬，面对Hiphop现状的无奈，别光听flow和beat啊喂
妈妈说的温柔而坚定就是这样吧 平静没有太多技巧的语调却使人感受到女性的力量 Female emcees The microphone fiends😈🙌🏻
男人能做的事情，咱女人也能做。这才叫女权。
