You are right... There is alot of real truth to most of the things they are rapping about, as a matter of fact I like what they are saying. We DO need to step up and point out all the fucked up shit that goes on in our society. Make people see whats happening...
BUT...
I think it is irresponsible of them to make the chorus of "Bush Knocked Down The Towers", which is repeated over and over, like it is a fact based on their other observations in the song.
These guys are icons in a generation of kids who have forgotten to think for themselves. They are so blinded by the haze of a "ME" generation that they will literally believe anything they are told because they heard it from a celebrity.
I see it as just another abuse of power, not unlike the abuse of power they are rapping about. If they had left out the chorus this would be a completely different debate.
As celebrities in a celebrity driven generation I think they should be more responsible in how they deliver their message.
