A warrior who strengthens his own identity
as a rapper rooted in the gangsta tradition, but with a heritage that makes him very unique in the rap business. ABK (Jamie
Lowery) born in Detroit is a native of the Lumbee tribe. He represents the struggle of a man with an ancient heritage whose
people were a part of the land that was savagely taken over by conquest. He now finds himself in the depraved ghetto struggling
to get by in an overly idealistic, violent society. The same society that developed the cities through brutality now teach
us to be peaceful in our aggressive, do or die search for money, power and respect. His eyes are constantly towards the stars
as he watches the vision of a warrior constellation move slowly across the earth through time; his inner vision allows him
to see that the violence of the streets is a continuation of this nation's brutal beginnings. |
