Self Scientific - Peaceful (Justice For Oscar) [Feat. Freddie Gibbs & Krondon]

Self Scientific just liberated something new for the new year, via their official blog:

We feel as though the injustice that was displayed with the Oscar Grant trial, is another example of brutality, handed out by the so-called law in America. Even in today’s seemingly relaxed social environment, where a Blackman is the literal face of the nation, we are forced to deal with blatant abuse of power, by local and federal “authorities”. We have been desensitized, and have come to a point where we expect the injustice to continue, yet collectively, we do nothing. We are ALL guilty. . .guilty of allowing our brothers and sisters to be continually treated like something less than human. The current generation spends countless hours online, typing useless banter about people’s personal lives, and listening to music that barely addresses the issues that effect us. If we ain’t gon tear this muthafucka up, we at least have to say something. . .”He Says Tazer , We Say Murder”. . . FUCK THE POLICE.
