Day 54 Public Enemy "He Got Game"

They made a righteous noise early on, but for me this is PE’s best moment lyrically. How about this in the theme to a film about basketball?


“White men in suits don't have to jump
Still a thousand and one ways to lose with the shoes
God takes care of the old folks and fools
while the devil takes care of makin’ all the rules
Folks don't even own themselves
payin’ mental rent, to corporate presidents”
