Cruel and Unusual Punishment
I came across this article last night and it prompted me to do some Googling, and so I figured I’d share what I found.
Here’s some info on the CD above:
The CD was influenced by the need to dismantle the inhumane death penalty system. Murder is barbaric on all fronts, in particular state sponsored. The death penalty is both racist and classist in its intention and application. The most important factor when determining whether someone is executed is the race of the victim. Additionally, the wealth of the defendant is directly related to whether he/she receives their due process. Death row continues to be filled with poor defendants who cannot afford their fair day in court, guaranteed in this country’s constitution. These defendants are left virtually defenseless with less than incompetent attorneys against a system that is designed to murder them. This CD is done in the memory of Hasan Shakur, Frances Newton, Shaka Sankofa, Tookie Williams, Dominique Green and everyone put to death by this demonic country and their broken system of justice.
Unfortunately, when I tried to purchase the album at the Welfare Poets site, it sent me to the Myspace page, which in turn sent me back to their site’s store. They should really straighten that out, because I don’t purchase alot of cd’s, but this is something I’d pay for in a second.
Here’s Song for Hasan from Cruel and Unusual Punishment.

Peace, the blackman is god ,tha white man is devil. Religion means rely on a jinn. A jinn is a ghost or evil spirit. It also means a set of beliefs. The opposite of belief is knowing. So if u believe in god that means u don’t know who god is. Look up the words belief,believe,and belie the root of both. The nation of god and earth break it like this;be means to exist,lie means not true and f in our supreme alphabet is father. U draw it up. Everything in the u-n-i-verse has a duality to it. Non fiction,fiction,nonbelief,belief. Don’t get it twisted,aethist is a religion meaning a belief there’s no god. There for wether a catholic,christian,muslim or satanist basically yall all believers. I make this statement clear as day b.u.t the problem is u 85%ers are caught in one religion or another and won’t have a clue to what I said. That’s a sign of stupidness(85ness) b.u.t yall don’t wanna cee it. Get the slavemaster balls steve,kevin,mike,bobby,jeff or whatever devil name u blackmen come under. Wether you’re last name is jackson(what plantation u come from boy? Ohh I came from the jackson plantation massa so my last name is such)william,smith,wallace or jones. Whatever da fuck it is. You hiphop niggas talk about keep it real b.u.t keep it fake. Some are gonna read this and say yo he’s right b.u.t 1year from now you’ll still come under the devil name. Why? Ans. Cause yall scared as fuck and don’t even know it. Where my real men at,yall real niggas can’t keep ya distance cause I might smack the shit out yo ass. If ya think I’m frontin behind a computer try the tru n livin god. My address is 95woodruff(wood rough) ave bklyn new york 11226 ,apt 4d ask 4 god. My number is 7185014372. I’M REAL! Peace to folks that bare witness 2 true. U other fake dudes that wanna put up messages like born go kill youreself,and go suck a dick and all that. So what. You tha same pussy I speaketh of. Heartless punks that if u seen me would cross the street. My myspace name is 97. I’m the one wit my hat to the back wit a black jacket on and uptowns. Medina is the the land of the warriors even the devil know that,that’s why he made that movie back in the day the warriors. I fight wit words and hands.85er say real reckonize real b.u.t watch niggers who think they(in they heart they know the not)real don’t hit me.

This post is legendary in my mind because Bro. Born7Malik manifested on this joint.
All you chumps with keyboards bear witness that Born7Malik replied to this post via his web enabled telephone and not a QWERTY based keyboard.
Show and prove Black man.

now puddin lover, religion does NOT mean rely on a jinn. build with FACTS not spookism. believing what “the father” says is a belief therefore you dont know it to be true. the supreme mathematics were bought to the world by noble drew ali. NOT puddin ! FACT . and should people relinquish their european slave masters name for an arabic (persian) name ? persians were way worse to the original man than europeans. FACT ! and.. fard was allegedly a half breed who came to civilize the black man ? and before you say this is the reason he left the nation, remeber that is where he got his lessons from. so doesnt that mean that your knowledge comes from the same devil you speak of ? now allahs words do manifest but only when the truth is separated from the mysticism. with that said very interesting post and more brothers need to build on things to elevate the minds and the babies but not be blind deaf and dumb to what really is truth. P.E.A.C.E.

@franke lee speakin
God what the fuck u talkin about. U need to read what u wrote and correct yourself. First off I didn’t say specifically say choose a arab name. That’s not the only black names. Second if u didn’t no the arabs were originally dark skinned people not those dudes u cee in the corner store. Those are the pale arabs. Why everytime a black person something good about blacks there’s always some dumb ass nigga wit this crab mentality that has to say b.u.t blacks did so and so worst then the whites. Duke save that shit. Aint nobody didn’t more damage to us then them. Study more stupid b4 you come in god cipher to try to pull him back in the bucket wit u. Plus noble drew did not make up the math . I don’t believe nothing the father said. U need read my post again homie or call me if u real b.u.t I explained what real is to me. Punks bein callin just to hear my voice then hang up like cissys. Aren’t any men on nahright or just fickle niggas. I said religion means rely on a jinn. In the dictionary it say a set of beliefs. What do u think that belief is in stupid. A holy ghost spirit whatever. Like I said relying on a jinn to one day place them in happines. Only a true dickhead can’t draw that up with you’re 3rdeye and cee it 4 what it is. Bruce lee learn different arts and came up with jeet kune do. He came to the supreme understanding of fighting that style limits u. Just like allah came wit his supreme understanding. Who could fuck wit bruce. Who could fuck wit allahs mathatmatics. Till this day I get into it wit religeous fools cause that’s what yall are fools. The nation of gods and earth are not a religion stupid. I don’t believe in the father. We don’t worship that man. I think u don’t know who we are or about. U probaly came across a fivepretender or jive percenter and got caught in a stereo type of all us. Call me if u wanna know insread of making a ass of u and me(asume).peace

1st off the origins of every people is afica so that ain’t nuthin new bruh. who said blacks did anything worse than whites ? check yourself fool ! so who is arguing the point about who did more damage. get off the cyber soap box and read and comprehend ! read more before you sound even more ignorant homes. noble drew ali ABSOLUTELY came up with the math and supreme alphabet before anyone. ask the moors and LEARN something because you really sound like a fool for that one. google it or get back in the streets and build with a knowledegable old head before you try to cyber thug someone with incorrect b.s. u dont believe nuthin the father said yet you try to use the language and definitions of words that he created ? stop fakin jacks nigga ! and u need to get out of the house more if u are sitting waiting for people to call your phone. try friendster or something. there are men on nh they just ain’t trying to sit that and call no nigga’s phone number that they seen on the equivalent of a cyber bathroom wall. GTFOH. the origin of the word religion is to tie and fasten or to re join. that word dont have nuthin to do with the fuckin jinn so stop lying and believing dumb shit you are fed. and u talk about other people being ignorant. dumb ass the belief could be in anything and you could call it a religion so whats your point. nothing ! my 3rd eye cees that you are confused nigga who really needs to read more and comprehend things even more because u are illogical as a mother fucker.
bruce lee quote “I have not invented a “new style,” composite, modified or otherwise that is set within distinct form as apart from “this” method or “that” method.” point of that is he did not invent anything new. so once again read more dipshit. allahs mathematics aint nuthin new. its just a “modification” of previous overstanding. the 5% are a reliogion by your definition because they have a set of beliefs. so not only are you ignorant but also contradictory. them niggas believe in a fuckin bighead scientist for crying out loud. on some black l ron hubbard shit. i got real knowledge from cats who know and learned from puddin so dont tell me i dont know what the fuck i am talking about. u have no knowledge of who u are dealing with. so holler when u want some real knowledge. and stop telling niggas to call you that shit sounds mad suspect homie. real niggas aint callin you like u some fuckin knowledge chat line. try speed dating or something. get out more
