And I have the privileged to be a part of itâ says BASSMAN. BASS is well Known for his great character, positive way to represent Hip-Hop, not only by energetic and crowd engaging performances but also lyrically like âIâm constantly solvinâ conflicts around the world / develop a better place for your boys and girls - African Soldier.â Even in some songs you can observe that he might say things that we do not necessary want to pay attention to as âthose days are over now / look what happen now / weâre forced to emigrate in the city of Nazis / white supremacy and the KKK / rest in peace Steve BIKO / we ainât goinâ no where / we went from slavery to a civil war / and from civil war to industrial slavery - Lord tell me why.â
