Zero fricks given. If these useless fools control your thinking that says more about you.

I am not your bro, and his music doesn't run any culture I am familiar with. Maybe it is just your shitty hood.

Maybe in the past 5 years, but a lot of white guys at work listen to his stuff, even 60-70 year white guys

The guy is HUGE, he's a social and political player.

It's the cultural culture bro

I don't live in hoods. I won't degrade myself like that.

I live in a leafy, crisp, racially mixed, moderate suburb.

Town voted Republican til 2020.

Instead of lighting the menorah, do they do a ritualistic drive by?

Ujima (collective work and responsibility)


This was referenced on the Sanford and Son episode "Lamonst Goes African". One of their funniest episodes (and that's saying a lot). Fred and Bubba were sittin' around, drinking beer, and trying to watch TV, but the reception was bad. Fred told Bubba that "Cable TV would "clear up that picture, but Lamont's too cheap to get cable."

Lamont walks in. He was on this "African roots" kick, and, in an attempt to force Fred out of his procrastination and laziness, he proceeded with:

Lamont: YOU AIN'T FOOLIN' NOBODY. I'M TELLIN'
YOU, YOUR DAYS OF LEISURE ARE OVER. I'M GONNA TURN OVER
A NEW LEAF, AND SO ARE YOU.

Fred: - WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

Lamont: IT MEANS WE'RE GONNA GET SOME
UJIMA IN THIS HOUSE STARTIN' TODAY.

Fred:- SOME WHO?

Lamont- SOME UJIMA.

Fred (to Bubba): YOU EVER HEAR OF UJIMA?

Bubba: NO, BUT I KNOW BIG JIMA.

Fred: YEAH, SHE'S A STRIPPER OVER
AT THAT TOPLESS PLACE. YEAH!

Lamont: WOULD YOU TWO LISTEN TO
ME? UJIMA IS A SWAHILI WORD,
AND IT MEANS "COLLECTIVE
WORK AND RESPONSIBILITY."

THAT MEANS THAT YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE
FOR SOME OF THE WORK AROUND HERE,

AND YOU'RE GONNA START LIVING UP
TO YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES AS OF NOW.

Fred: WELL, HOW DO YOU
SAY CABLE TV IN SWAHILI?

YOU GET CABLE TV AND I'LL
UJIMA ALL OVER THIS PLACE.
