When East Bay rapper Paris' new album is released in April, it's bound to create some noise.

The cover of "Sonic Jihad" depicts a commercial jetliner headed for the White House, evoking the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

Disgusting.

[TXBubba]

You said it.

Another second grade drop out half wit trying to be a big rapper man and impress all the other half wits.

Move on, nothing to see here.

[Newbomb Turk]

A shameless attempt to get some free publicity for so called music which most likely SUCKS anyway.

[RightWhale]

Two threads and counting.

"Images are very powerful. For many people, they're much more powerful than words. "

That is because they are too freeking ignorant to learn to read. They only get pictures

[dfwgator]

How appropriate that he takes his name from the French capital.

All the America-hating, misfit lefties were silent for awhile after 9/11. Now they're back with a vengeance.

Paris accuses the Bush administration of using the war on terrorism as an opportunity to silence dissent:

If dissent is being silenced, then why am I subjected to it constantly? Sheesh, what a dumb argument.

[Luna]

On the album's first single, "What Would You Do," Paris accuses the Bush administration of using the war on terrorism as an opportunity to silence dissent: "It's all a part of playin' God so ya think we need 'em / While bin Ashcroft take away ya rights to freedom," he raps. "Bear witness to the sickness of these dictators / Hope you understand the time, brother, cause it's major."

This paragraph shows in glowing neon colors his complete ignorance. If he rapped this crap under a real dictator, he'd be taken away and killed without any due process. When are these idiot leftists going to get it? It frustrates me to no end.

Paris, go to Iraq and be a human shield. Take your genes out of the gene pool, please.

The America-Haters have no shame.

[LoneRangerMassachusetts]

Another product of the Great Sociey.

[Jael]

I hate to even bump this, but I have to say, this is so sick.

[SeenTheLight]

I think this is definitely worth organizing protests at record stores that sell this CD. That would bring more publicity to the story and perhaps cause some people not to buy the CD. On the other hand, most of those people wouldn't have bought it anyway...

Sick leftists ping

Paris parted ways with Tommy Boy Records in 1992 when it refused to distribute his album "Sleeping With the Enemy" because it included the scathing anti-establishment track "Bush Killa."

"Anti-establishment?" Puhleeze. The track was about assassinating George H.W. Bush.

Sorry about the ping. I meant to ping this thread to my list---oops!
