@@theartyonko after the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln proposed reparations for the African Americans that were recently freed. It consisted of 40 acres of land and a mule. These reparations never came to fruition because Lincoln was assassinated and replaced with a KKK apologist known as Andrew Johnson. So when he says 40 acres short, he speaks of the land that African Americans never received.

Uh no neither George W Carver's (Tuskegee scientists) & my dads Favorite Poem, "Equipment" "EQUIPMENT" by Edgar A. Guest was Dr. Carver's favorite poem; he can be heard reciting it at an audio station at the George Washington Carver Museum. Equipment Figure it out for yourself, my lad, You've all that the greatest of men have had, Two arms, two hands, two legs, two eyes, And a brain to use if you would be wise. With this equipment they all began, So start for the top and say "I can." Look them over, the wise and great, They take their food from a common plate And similar knives and forks they use, With similar laces they tie their shoes, The world considers them brave and smart. But you've all they had when they made their start. You can triumph and come to skill, You can be great if only you will, You're well equipped for what fight you choose, You have legs and arms and a brain to use, And the man who has risen, great deeds to do Began his life with no more than you. You are the handicap you must face, You are the one who must choose your place, You must say where you want to go. How much you will study the truth to know, God has equipped you for life, But He Lets you decide what you want to be. Courage must come from the soul within, The man must furnish the will to win, So figure it out for yourself, my lad, You were born with all that the great have had, With your equipment they all began. Get hold of yourself, and say: "I can."

It's even deeper, when you think about how the song he did with Rapsody, "Iman", had her calling him out when he rapped, "Behind every great man is a bad bit**, handlin' sh*t ". She, taking, a page from Queen Latifah said, "'Preciate your elegance JID, but bro, love, tell me, who the fu** you callin' a bit**?".

@JTR Hockey Productions I take that as you mean musically which is possible and being that cole is the guy he is he'd look at it as an achievement to have signed someone that ambitious. Regardless, he'll never feel personally that he surpassed cole ever because that man gave him a platform to further become even able to surpass cole. So I know what you mean and on a technical skill level yeah j.i.d is up there. But like Cole said years prior he wanted to sign Kendrick. J.i.d is in essence his second shot at that. Cole ain't thinking bout rapping in the same mind frame as he was when he was little Jermaine. He's going the same route his mentor showed him. Bigger business. Larger bridges. I'm excited to see how J.I.D defines himself moving forward though

@JTR Hockey Productions your right because kendrick never would have the same acclaim he has right now and he knew that. I always look at it like a basketball player playing for a team full of stars or choosing to do it dolo and become the star. Now of course kendrick had tde and black hippy and such but his star had more room to shine under punch and top who are the bosses not rappers also acting as bosses. That's actually the reason why the worst two people to sign to are drake and kanye. Especially drake superficially not because you wont eat and not because he doesnt take care of his team because his shadow is too gargantuan. Even without doing anything his popularity turns anyone around him into an afterthought and that's tough on any artist. But your right kendrick saw himself currently back then, so now hes afforded this position of being Cole's peer and competition as well Drake's peer and competition.

perhaps JID’s best song. such a positive mindset, and a cry for a change in people’s thoughts.

they taught us about these experiments in high school where I'm from, Jid is one of my favorite artists. his penmanship and flow can paint any picture he wants, truly a masterclass in skill

Love how he stays with his style and doesn’t try to drop a song that would be catchy so it can end up on TikTok. Rather have a song with education then one that’s just a beat and a hook

So before the civil war, the families of those Black ppl who served in The war to be entitled to 40 acres of land and a mule so they can support the family. In the 1800s that was the perfect set up for a comfortable life but unfortunately after Lincoln got killed, his Vice President Andrew Johnson changed this and never gave African Americans their 40 acres. And jid is on a sports scheme talking about playing like Jordan, and “running for a million yards” which is a reference to football, so he’s saying even if you break all the rushing yard records, you’re still 40 acres short of what you’re entitled to. And “yards” are a unit of measurement on land in this context, and the slaves were owed 40 acres of land. So there’s the wordplay with it

Many props to JID for introducing the inhumanity of the Tuskegee study to the new generation. The injustice from that study still resonates big time in African American distrust of today’s healthcare system. Bless up for keeping this present and prevalent, and for holding us to higher standards as human beings. One love.

This is amazing. The beat, delivery, video, writing, everything perfect.

That second verse is insanely articulate. This why he’s my favorite

For anyone who doesn’t know; this song name is Skegee because he went to Tuskegee Alabama to record it. The significance of Tuskegee is because it’s where Tuskegee experiments took place. An experiment where researchers had black men with syphilis come in and pretend to test on them and help them, when actually they did nothing and wanted to see how far Syphilis could progress in humans. Even when a cure came out, they refused to give it to the patients and instead gave them fake ones, even as the disease worsened and participants experienced severe health problems including blindness, mental impairment-or death.

@@birdsfly7199 America tries to sweep all of the shit they’ve done to black people under the rug. There’s a reason schools don’t teach stuff like The Tulsa Race Riots or the Philadelphia bombings of black neighborhoods. Or why they show pictures of MLK and the civil rights movement in Black n White even though they were taken in color, to make Americans believe it was “so long ago” even though many people, including my parents were alive during segregation and experienced it and Jim Crow laws. Black people are the only group in America that after 400 hours of maltreatment have never gotten an apology from the govt or any form of reparations, every other group has. That’s why the last bar of the song was “Nigga ran a million yards, you still fort acres short”, because the Govt promised that as reparations to black folk after slavery when they were freed so they could be on equal footing with white people, but after Lincoln was assassinated the new president essentially said “fuck them”
