Slaughterhouse MC Kxng Crooked has expressed he is one of the greatest lyricist of all time. His recent song release in dedication to Eric Garner titled ” I Can’t Breathe”, shows the lyrical prowess and depth of the artist.
The 4 minute song starts with live audio of the New York protest after the grand jury decision to Not indict officer Pantelo in the chokehold related death of 43-year old Eric Garner.
Spitting over Tupac’s Pain instrumental Kxng Crooked’s lyrics reflect frustration and disgust at the blatant disregard for African American life, the apparent immunity police officers have from prosecution when killing unarmed suspects and the treatment of Black males in particular by the judicial system. The first verse ends with audio of Eric Garner’s last tragic words ” I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe”.
