“Ownership Is Representation – Anything Else Is Charity”
This is the sentiment behind “Black Prosperity” and the idea that we need to elevate ourselves. We do not benefit from our many contributions to society. We are instead victims of society in almost every way, because we own NOTHING. The image depicts a weary-eyed arm working the land and coming up empty-handed. It was created during a DJ Set (with Ableton) for Party Time Society Radio. Looking forward to improving both Art and DJ skills.
Forward.

Black Prosperity / LYRICS:
News station cut off, when the Badman speak with clarity
Unapologetic, all over the world, African Black Prosperity
When deception news present twisted version of truth just fi trick youth, Real shines thru
This time we’re reaching fi di whole nine (yards)
No lies to fight thru, No lies, True
CHORUS
Whoa – o – o – whoa – o – yo yo
Want Financial Therapy?
Time fi Black Prosperity
It’s been like this from Day one. You’ve been down
That’s what dem want I and I to believe
Remember it’s the same gun that bring down
Chains and The Cross to control I destiny
Now we get with the program
With deeper water the tides affi change, must change
If we cannot grow, man So many years and more of the same
Lord have mercy… MC ZULU
We don’t wan forget all of our secrets
Treat I with Respect as resource giver
Colonial taxes dem get much bigger
Then dem say they don’t want outsiders THERE inna the capital?
Foreigner go back where you come from,
But send us raw materials so we’ll have it all
Damn it all
Take the diamonds dem with African labor
THEN sell diamonds to African Americans…..in the shape of White Jesus faces
Protest? They’ll me “racist”.
CHORUS
Tell them No, No, No, No, No
When they talk ’bout CHARITY…Time for Black Prosperity
Empire defender enter the center
Infiltrate and then get well paid
There’s always work for informers
A so dem reward all the mental slaves
CHORUS
Whoa – o – o – whoa – o – yo yo
Want Financial Therapy?
Time fi Black Prosperity
Tell them No, No, No, No, No
When they talk ’bout CHARITY…
Time for Black Prosperity
Send them GUNS although they don’t have no money fi food
Guns fi pass thru sealed & brand new
Ammunition? You need that too!
Now fill your minds up with the “Shotta” fantasy.
No doubt you got A.K, .45, Mac Eleven. M-1 and then some.
Just remember how dem wan you get gun,
And do the dutty work for them, son.
CHORUS
Whoa – o – o – whoa – o – yo yo
Want Financial Therapy?
Time fi Black Prosperity
Tell them No, No, No, No, No
When they talk ’bout CHARITY…
Time for Black Prosperity
