I was a racist ass little dickwad until this band hit... and then I was FORCED to realize how fucked up I was. Living Color turned a HORRIBLE child into a DECENT man! And, even though it hurts to admit that I was a bad kid... I'll NEVER stop thanking this band for saving my mind, and changing my life!!! 💯💯💯😎

A cult of personality, or a cult of the leader,[1] is the result of an effort which is made to create an idealized and heroic image of a leader by a government, often through unquestioning flattery and praise. Historically, it has developed through techniques of mass media, propaganda, spectacle, the arts, patriotism, and government-organized demonstrations and rallies.

Drums kicked A$$. Guitars kicked A$$. Lead singer kicked serious A$$. Lyrics- next level. head banging while speaking truth to power. Lyrics mean as much today as they did then, maybe more. Politicians making sure no one is happy, while making a lot of money themselves, and taking us from one war right into the next. I was around in the 80s when rock/metal was kind of in a hole, then GnR and Living Colour came out. Someone needs to explain to me why Living Colour wasn't a lot bigger for a lot longer. I don't get it.

Maybe a certain president that dooped everyone into awful business ventures that made him millions, maybe the president that has fooled people into thinking of him as the second coming, that they worship him, giving him power in their gods name. This song was decades ahead of its time.
